I am grateful for that little blue jay that landed on my head yesterday. Crazy! First, it flew up onto the chair in front of me, looked at me, and then flew off. Next thing I knew it was perched up on the top of my hat, hopping around, moved to the brim, fluttered about a little, and flew away. I was cracking up at the time and simultaneously hoping he didn't "do what birds do" and ruin the moment. That was a funny, briefly exciting experience.
I am not, however, super grateful for the snake I later found in the garage. Not knowing whether or not it was venomous made coaxing it out a bit tense. However, I suppose I got to see nature's doubled-edged sword—a harmless, silly blue jay and a potentially harmful, aggressive snake. I can be grateful that I got this lesson in respecting nature and realizing that humans are not invulnerable.
