Walking
out the Eastern door of the cabin this morning, the first thing I
heard was an alarm call from Chipmunk. Chipmunk's alarm call is a
single loud chirp. Louder than a smoke alarm, it rings out across the
Forest. And it's not just for Chipmunk's relatives. Anyone who can
hear it gets the message, even me. And it's not a warning that says,
“Run!” or “Hide!” That's because running and hiding aren't
always the best ways to respond. In fact there is no one right
response to an alarm call. Chipmunks message simply means, “Pay
attention.”
Today,
I will be listening to Chipmunk's alarm call and paying attention. In
response I will do what makes sense for me.
