Webs and Spiders

As the sun came through the webs that had woven themselves between the tree branches during the night, it looked like shimmering, silver, silk threads had found their way from tree branch to tree branch. It looked like rivers of liquid, silver, light connecting the woods to itself. As the breeze moved through the trees it looked like floodlights moving the light in all directions. It was beautiful.
As Gypsy and I were enjoying this spectacle, the ugliest spider we have ever seen came to visit. We have named him Fred. He and several other spiders live on our back porch. As I was sitting on my rocking chair enjoying my expresso, he dropped down, attached to his web and stopped next to my left ear. He can make six feet of web in three sceonds. Amazing. Gypsy and I wondered what he was going to do. Well guess what? He whispered a message into my left ear. He revealed to me the meaning of life. Everyone wants to know this. People have speculated about it since the beginning of time. No one seems to be perfectly satisfied with the explanations so far. What do you think Fred said? "Weave the threads of your life like the webs of the woods connecting them with love. Even us ugly spiders deserve to be loved. It is not the outside of us that is important, it is what is on the inside." Take time to go alone to yourself and see if you can discover what is there. Or come to the cabin and see if an ugly spider named Fred will drop down by your left ear and tell you. Time to go and see what the day will bring. It looks like it will be a beautiful day here at the cabin.
The cats on the front porch brought me a gecko today. Dead of course. They need to listen to the ugly spider. Cara and Gypsy
