Life in the middle of nowhere

I live in a small town in rural Colorado, and the things we see here at times are really amazing. The other day, when I had a conversation with my husband in the bedroom, we all of a sudden saw a face in the window of the exterior door. It was a full sized bobcat looking in at us! Then he walked around the house before he disappeared into the forest.
The bear is also a common visitor, looking for tasty trash to eat, and unfortunately, they aren’t very scared of humans. It is fun to get a glimpse of a mountain lion once in a while, or two bobcat cubs playing and rolling down the mountain sides. However, it wasn’t quite as fun when we came home one day and found 6 racoons in our living room after they discovered the cat door…
Deer and antilope are everywhere, and once in a while we see a skunk or a porcupine, too. Life itself is so full of abundance! Silly humans are the only beings on earth that live in poverty and lack.
However did we manage to create lack in an environment that is characterized by unbelievably generous abundance? Maybe we have to get back in tune with nature again…
