What We've Learned from Animals
This month's writing assignment was to share with everyone something that you've learned from animals. The response was WONDERFUL. So many of our bloggers have clearly learned much from our hoofed, webbed, clawed, and four-legged friends. Thanks to Robert Hruzek for hosting this month's assignment.
In reading through the entries, here's a couple that I really enjoyed:
What I Learned From Shooting a Muskrat, by Brad Shorr at Word Sell, Inc. Brad remembers a painful lesson about the value, even for small creatures.
What I Learned From Sam the Border Collie Dog, by Andrew Rondeau at Great Management. Andrew tells the story of his dog Cole, who has eaten just about everything and finally ate something even his stomach couldn't take.
What I Learned From Animals - A Boy Becomes Like God, by Marcus Goodyear at goodwordediting.com. Marcus recalls the pain of encountering death with its full emotional punch when his dog ran out in front of a car.
Thank you to all who participated!
