The Lyrics From Billy's Forest Chapter 197

Listen to "The Lyrics From Billys Forest Chapter 197" on Spreaker. Not because I originate from Montana but because I truly have a passion to study animals and their behaviors that I'm given the daily opportunity to watch as nature teaches the human. Especially during this Coronavirus outbreak. The forest I've called home for twenty eight years is more brilliant this season then any other time. It knows it has to be. There are a lot of wanderers taking in so much content that the human mind and spirit are consumed by physical acts of hoarding. Especially information which leads to opinions which lands in the center of a war of words on social media. Talk about a brilliant moment to enact Ghosting! No! I learned a huge valuable lesson while writing in the forest the other day. How every animal that's made its home within these trees and long grasses deals with daily survival. The human on the other hand has had life handed to him and her. Until now. On this podcast we dive into the subject of what's really going to happen before during and after this virus. As hard as some leaders are trying to get us back to work to strike up our global success as business leaders and deliverers of quality products we are in a moment of shutdown that's going to deafen our growth. A squirrel family took up refuge in my BBQ. I get it! Why live in a tree if the human stick figure isn't using that nifty cool metal house on the deck? Jazzie the wonder dog knew something was up under that hood. The squirrels knew there was no good outside that hood. Boom! Stop there. Nothing happens to the squirrels. The lesson learned was fed 100% by survival. Which many of us human people have no clue how to do. The once a month camping trip isn't survival. I can't predict what happens after May 1st when another month passes where people have to make a choice food or rent. Survival. Knowing the atmosphere that surrounds our present situation. Begin a process of learning how to prepare for survival. It's uncomfortable! I want my internet and smart phone. I want a Big Mac! I want I want! Lee and I are learning how to stretch our meals. What do we really need to eat to stay healthy versus to be pleasantly plump? I didn't purchase an RV ten years ago to take up camping. I did it to have a second home just in case the economy lashes out like it did in 2008. Survival. I volunteer at the Men's Homeless Shelter to ask questions about really surviving. Reading the good book is great. But if you don't activate the stories presented how do we expect to grow with its purpose. Do a little homework. Mindfully step into a moment of wanting and needing to learn more about what truly could be next. Leaders prepare.
