I've been having serious squirrel synchronicities the past few days - and I hadn't made the connection with the verb! Thank you so much for bringing this to light, and I'm so glad this story has an ending that is easy to see as happy :)
What a tiny pink miracle is right!! And you were his guardian angel :) I love this story so much, and this inquiry: “Is there something in me that squirrels away things? Something that buries little packages of seeds?”
I’m with you on caring for all creatures (though I can’t yet say I include flies, mosquitos, spiders, or cockroaches). When we used humane traps in the process of solving a mouse issue, Michael used to feed them a little almond with peanut butter before setting them loose in the park :) We sooo get it! I love that you did your best to save this little guy, and even went back to do it :)
OMG that little baby!!! Thank you for saving him. I love this question: What would it be like to “re-member” ourselves? I'm not sure, but I know it would really be something because just saying it out loud made my belly drop:)
Thank you! It often feels like the culture dismembers us, and it's a continual process for me not to do that. I love that this sentence resonated. And this little guy! I'm in love. ;-)
