From within or from behind, a light shines through us upon things, and makes us aware that we are nothing, but the light is all.

13 truckers lined up under a highway overpass this week to try to prevent a suicide. From the article:
The impressive line-up wasn’t a coincidence. The drivers were prepared for exactly this sort of situation. Sgt. Jason Brockdorff of the Huntington Woods Police Department told The Detroit News that the response was something local police and truck drivers had actually trained for.
Being ready makes a difference. Ready for. Ready to.

Great video! I didn’t know there were such talented dogs employed at baseball games, but am not surprised. And coincidentally, I caught this video on the news just yesterday! https://katu.com/news/offbeat/bat-dog-brings-water-to-umpire-at-minor-league-baseball-game. Looks like they love their work!
Marilyn – LOL – Thanks for the link. They do indeed seem to be eternally enthusiastic.
Now, that’s a hoot! No…more to the point, a woof, or maybe an arf!

Tom- 🙂
Oh — I thought he was going to bat a ball with the bat,
but then he/she (?) wouldn’t be called a “bat dog”, but a “bitch hitter”. Groan.
Barbara – Groan indeed.
