We're All In This Together...

A mother goose in Ohio personally sought out the help of the Cincinnati Police Department Monday when one of her goslings was tangled in a balloon string.

Cincinnati Police Sergeant James Givens told InsideEdition.com: “I was sitting in a patrol car in a parking lot, I heard something pecking on the side of the door and I looked down and I thought the goose was hungry. I was eating a bagel and I tossed it a piece but it didn’t have any. It walked in front of me so I followed it and it took me to its baby that was tangled in rope.”

Sergeant Givens called the SPCA Wildlife, which had no one to assist. He then made a call over the radio and Officer Cecilia Charron arrived to lend a hand.

Officer Charron approached the mother goose to see what the issue was.

“It’s weird because it kept the distance and it kept the baby calm. I’ve never seen anything like this before,” Givens said. “I said it must be a motherly instinct, the mother didn’t attack her or nothing, seeing the thing run off that was the best part.” (source)

And HELPING is the best part.

Sense Enough...

"To retaliate in kind would do nothing but intensify the existence of hate in the universe. Along the way of life, someone must have sense enough, and morality enough, to cut the chain of hate." ~ MLK

MLK Monument w:Mom and Dad

I love this pic I took of Mom and Dad a couple of years ago when they went to D.C. with me to a conference... Dad looks like a crazy gnome on the verge of attacking Mom and Mom is all, "Wtf are you doing?"

So... a stone of hope... Never underestimate your influence. Never underestimate the difference you can make... even if it's small, it's still a difference. And we have no idea how far that ripple effect goes...
