Babies

July 8

A mother loon with her two babies following closely behind
Watching these little ones follow their parent got me thinking. That parent is incredibly nervous and distrustful of us. I had to use a zoom lens and keep a safe distance away, to keep her from panicking.
The babies don’t, yet. But they know to follow her lead. It’s wise, unfortunately.
So I wonder:
What would the world be like if all of us let old fears go and our children had a new lead to follow?
