Abandoned all fear...


As my husband and I were driving in the country, we spotted him (just in time).
We watched him as he crept across the road toward the haven of grass that awaited him.
Did he know?
Did he know that his urge to cross the road could cost him everything.
No.
He focused on his mission, heading towards his goal and abandoned all fear...

  9. They do make it most of the time, or we wouldn't keep seeing them do it! Unfortunately, it's the ones who decide to cross at night that are hard to see.

    Great symbolism!

  14. We used to stop and have one of the boys jump out of the car and move them across the road. I never thought of their brave little souls.
