This fellow was peacefully
munching grass in the side yard of my church. It was last Saturday afternoon.
We are in a suburban
neighborhood. Family homes, attentive
landscaping, busy streets and walking traffic describe our area. Still, deer are frequent visitors. It’s not unusual to see one or two, even
a family of deer resting or having a meal around wooded spaces, especially
surrounding our church parking lot. They
amble away but they do not panic.
Thanks to my stealth driving
this one wasn’t disturbed – stayed where he was; only stopped eating to
consider I wasn’t a threat. I got the
picture.
I was happy.

Seeing that beautiful animal
in his serene setting, the problems of the world didn’t matter.
What makes you happy?
