    Healing Paws

    By Ted Grussing

    … each day we live we are witness to the miracle of life all around us on this tiny little planet that is spinning and rushing through space … no life rafts … no parachutes … this is the home we are born on and likely for many years will die on … at least in our present state. There are many who believe that this life is a transition and life continues in an alternative state, those who believe that this life is it and nothing other than a long and rather permanent rest. Those who believe in a God and those who do not … those who believe in love and that it should rule our relationships with others … those who do not and believe in punishment for those that do or believe differently than they.

    But, it is a very good life … we are here and each day presents the same opportunity for each of us to initiate a miracle of love in the lives of others … so share the joy whatever your beliefs.

    I did go to church today, but long after the Easter celebrations were concluded and mine was the only vehicle in the parking lot. Usually I spend meditative time alone amid the beauty by the columbarium every week. Brought a 20oz sugar free vanilla latte from home, my camera and spent about an hour down there today. The miracle of a love that is forever and as Corky and I used to tell each other, forever after that.  The breezes were soothing and it was quiet … clouds were racing across the sky and I felt at peace. Lichen are growing on the stones in the columns between niches and they have the look of forever a life form with beauty and if for no other reason they simply are … a place to land and to wonder.

    After I left the church it was into town to get some gas, a few errands and a trip to the ponds before heading home  … a stop at the outlets to help friends take down their exhibit tent and then home in time to greet other friends who brought me a meatloaf to warm up and have for dinner … a very good meatloaf and a little lettuce, some catsup and bread and a terrific sandwich for dinner. I watched the movie “Jobs” and enjoyed it a lot … he was one of the visionaries who helped shape our world as we know it.

    It is Monday and the week is underway …  and the journey continues.

    Cheers

    Sleep sweetly now that the gates of the crimson night are closed,
    and leave tomorrow’s struggle for tomorrow;
    The earth is peaceful, only the stars and still moon are abroad, and they wage no war.

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
