This is Deputy Digby Pancake. Have you ever rushed around so much that you forgot what you were running to?

It’s hard for me to relate to that. Rushing seems like an utter waste of time. You try to save time. But then you try to fit more things in your schedule. And then you still run out of time while you are running.

At the beach, there is no such thing as rushing. Or schedules. You plan your day around the tides and the sunshiney. You watch the pelicans fish. You watch the fish jump. You have some drinks and snacks.

And then it’s time to go to bed with the windows open and the breeze tickling your fur.

The farm life is fun. And we are really missing our llama and kitty friends.

We miss the kangaroo. We miss the emus and the ostriches. And we miss our friends at the product market who gave us a dog treat every morning with a smile. But on a farm, persons work hard. And so they don’t have as much time as the persons on the beach. And I suppose maybe they should trade places for a little while.

On the beach, you’re never late, because there is nothing to be late for.

Even Boy Person who can’t tell time, or simply ignores it, he’s right on schedule. Isn’t that nice?

Had your life seemed to have gotten away from you? Do you keep chasing something and forget what it is that you are after? It’s like Sheriff Brickle chasing his corn dog tail. It’s not much of a point to it.

Your schedule should be filled with what’s important. But never forget that you are more than work. You are more than school. You are more than a mom. Or a dad. Or a caregiver. You are you. Find time in your schedule to take care of your heart.
