The issues with sharing

The issues with sharing

May 31, 2018Sidney Johnson

Working on a farm can have good days and bad days, sometimes the weather can be perfect, sometimes not. For us it is right. Having just returned from an evening walk to the creek with Daisy I am reminded of all the life around us. The creek is a hub of activity with its ponds, reeds and tree hollows where the sounds of life can be very loud indeed. We are privileged to be sharing this earth with so many others.

Sharing is not always easy though and we would be happy if the sheep would enjoy the company of the cattle just a little bit more. They look relaxed after they are moved onto the new area together, but without fail when we return the next day, the sheep have broken through the fence. Maybe the sheep consider themselves above the cattle and leave or maybe the cattle have the superiority complex and kick them out. Who knows? Patience is needed, we are dealing with many individuals!
