A female humpback whale had become entangled in a spider web of crab traps and lines. She was weighted down by hundreds of pounds of traps that caused her to struggle to stay afloat. She also had hundreds of yards of line rope wrapped around her body, her tail, her torso, a line tugging in her mouth.
This is her story of giving gratitude.
A fisherman spotted her just east of the Faralon Islands (outside the Golden Gate) and radioed for help. Within a few hours, the rescue team arrived and determined that she was so badly off, the only way to save her was to dive in and untangle her…. a very dangerous proposition.
One slap of the tail could kill a rescuer.
They worked for hours with curved knives and eventually freed her.
When she was free, the divers say she swam in what seemed like joyous circles. She then came back to each and every diver, one at a time, nudged them, and pushed gently, thanking them. Some said it was the most incredibly beautiful experience of their lives.
The guy who cut the rope out of her mouth says her eye was following him the whole time, and he will never be the same.
May you be so fortunate …
To be surrounded by people who will help you get untangled from the things that are binding you.
And, may you always know the joy of giving and receiving gratitude.

Hatred is so over rated.
We eat the same ingredients in foods we prepare.
The same color of blood runs in our veins.
We all breathe air for oxygen.
We all drink water.

The small wonders of nature that leaves us in awe 
I was so fortunate last year to witness such event as the mutating stages of a butterfly. I bought a parsley in May and 4 caterpillars started eating it and obviously getting fat. I had to buy more parsley. They kept on leaving the parsley and I put them back on, little did I know then until I researched about them… they leave the plant out of safety and cocoon somewhere unnoticed.
I put them in a box with a piece of wood and 2 of them finally hung on it and spent about 2 weeks until they “hatched”. The 3rd caterpillar walked somewhere I couldn’t find him and the last one was weak from the beginning and died before growing big.
After “hatching” the butterfly just walked around with wings still not quite open, it takes time and later it has to shoot liquid in the veins of his wings so they would stretch out and hold.
Finally these two flew high up and away… I missed them; and then their cycle starts again…
I had beautiful yellow swallowtail. I have pics on my cell phone and won’t download them here but here a pic from internet:

Mary, it is possible that a butterfly laid his eggs on the parsley when I bought it or after I placed the parsley on my balcony… It is hard to keep them in one place if you don’t have a proper container or alike. I saw it and that’s it. It happened by chance. Checkout some videos on YT that’s nice too

Here’s a good one, keep your thought tool sharp, and in top shape. Hope you don’t get caught off guard 
and no peeking ahead.
Your Yearly Dementia Test ! (only 4 questions this year)
Yep, it’s that time of year again for us to take our annual senior citizen test.
As we grow older, it’s important to keep mentally alert.
If you don’t use it, you will lose it !!!
Take this test to determine if you’re losing it or not.
The spaces below are so you don’t see the answers until you’ve answered.
OK, RELAX, clear your mind and begin.
#1. What do you put in a toaster ?
Answer: ‘bread.’ If you said ‘toast’, just give up now and go do something else.
And, try not to hurt yourself.
If you said, bread, go to Question #2
2. Say ‘silk’ ten times. Now spell ‘silk.’ What do cows drink ?
Answer: Cows drink water. If you said ‘milk,’ don’t attempt the next question.
Your brain is already over-stressed and may even overheat.
Content yourself with reading more appropriate literature such as Women’s Weekly or Auto World.
However, if you did say ‘water’, proceed to Question #3
3. If a red house is made from red bricks and a blue house is made from blue bricks and a pink house is made from pink bricks and a black house is made from black bricks, what is a green house made from ?
Answer: Greenhouses are made from glass.
If you said ‘green bricks’, why are you still reading this ???PLEASE, go lie down !
But, if you said ‘glass,’ go on to Question #4.
4. Please do not use a calculator for this for it would be cheating:
You are driving a bus from New York City to Philadelphia.
In Staten Island, 17 people got on the bus.
In New Brunswick, 6 people get off the bus and 9 people get on.
In Windsor, 2 people get off and 4 get on.
In Trenton, 11 people get off and 16 people get on.
In Bristol, 3 people get off and 5 people get on.
And, in Camden, 6 people get off and 3 get on.
You then arrive at Philadelphia Station.
Without going back to review, how old is the bus driver ?
Answer: Oh, for crying out loud !
Don’t you remember your own age?!?! It was YOU driving the bus!
If you pass this along to your friends, pray they do better than you.
PS: 95% of people fail most of the questions!
Sorry for all the spaces. You’d be tempted to cheat otherwise.
If you had fun with this, send it on; I did.
