the kindness of the deer



Today I met with a most wonderful and kind deer. We arranged to visit over lunch and like all good deer (at least the ones in this hemisphere)he was content to munch on various forms of vegetation. After discussions regarding the inner workings of his four-chambered stomach, I told him about what was new with me. I talked to him about my apprehensions for the future and my previous pattern of unrecognized goals. He assured me, in the way that deer do, that change was possible and even imminent. Thus, I could put my fears to rest, as there was hope that events would unfold in a positive manner within my life. It is possible that today I came across the wisest deer because he informed me that I could change a great deal about my experiences and perceptions of the world, simply by changing my thought processes. Wow! I asked the deer how he had become so intelligent and he told me that he had studied psychology for many years. I was very grateful for his shared wisdom. I also sought comfort from the fact that this deer was actually using his degrees in psychology for good, as I have yet to find any real purpose for my degree in psychology.
