“…Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of these, the least of my Brethren, ye have done it unto Me.” Here’s an opportunity for some deep questions: Who are “the least”? Who are “Brethren”? How do you treat them? And who is “Me”? There can be many answers to these questions, and they all help us to understand what is meant by kindness and mercy.

I once caught a mouse in our house by putting a shoe box over it, then sliding a piece of cardboard underneath, then freed it some distance away. 🙂
A superb method….also works on bats, I’ve found! (I use a clear plastic box so that I can see if the critter is fully underneath.)

Yes, indeed!

Lovely brethren’ indeed…. thanks for sharing your mindful questioning and images Priscilla. Love Who is “me” … or is that “Me” … hmm? I’m with you on this. And so glad you point out there are so many answers….
Thanks, Bruce. I know you have those same questions in your heart from what you share as well.
Yes, so true 🙂 It’s good to know we’re not alone in the questioning.
Love love love your photos!! Great post!
Thanks, Mary! I hope one day to get a macro lens and make some dew/raindrop photos like the exquisite world you post on your blog.
