Crawling things

 I was walking out of work tonight and it had been a sort of boring day, nothing to really write about.  I saw the beautiful mountains, the glistening sun coming through to the orchard on the Paiute land and I saw some ravens enjoying some worms or something on the ground.  The sunshine brought joy to my heart as always.  I was walking along and looked down and there on the ground was some type of crawler.  It was moving as fast as it could. I watched for a minute as every time my shadow went above it, it just moved faster and faster as if it was on the journey to save his life.  I just watched as I went along and then I realized that is what I am grateful for today.  Heavenly Father once again guides my mind to the world around me which I love and shows me something totally unexpected that again brings me to a totally new thought process.


The stinger on this new crawling friend looks so sharp.  I wanted to see if it was sharp or dull, but I didn't want to touch it and scare it even more than my shadow was already doing.




I tried to do a little research and find out what this little crawler is, even put a picture in an app that identifies crawling things, it came back with no match.  So this sighting really was just for me, and now I will look for them a little closer.  I really want to know what it is now.  A great way to end a slow day, and I am grateful for it.
