Today was an
interesting experience in opposites.
The park appears to be a wonderful sanctuary.
The animals are
well cared for.
They are loved
and are the picture of beauty and health.
Yet there is
something amiss.
A sense of
longing, and maybe a hint of sadness.
They are God’s
creatures, meant to be wild and free.
Yet they eat,
sleep and play, and do what mammals will do.
They are
ambassadors to us. They share their
world with us in the hopes
that one of us
will be touched, affected and perhaps changed so that their
brethren in the
wilds can remain what they are not, free.
A picture of
opposites, free versus captive. One
sacrifices for the other,
when will we
change so such generosity of these beautiful creatures is
no longer
needed.
