Humbling Moments

[Leaveammoforme]

Unhappy with my performance in a local match this morning, I hit a static bay to do a little more shooting. Wrapped up my shooting for the day on a good note performance wise.

However, I still had a poor attitude and just a general pissed off mood. As I was aggressively working the push broom cleaning up brass I noticed something. A beautiful Butterfly was just hanging out on the ground. I bent down to steal a few pictures.

Discovered a couple other critters all within 10 feet of where I was shooting. Instantly felt humbled and refreshed. I would assume there's probably a picture of me online somewhere now as "Crazy Brass Guy on hands & knees!" from one of the vehicles that slow rolled my bay.

Totally worth it.

Job 12:7-10 (KJV)

7 But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee; and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee:

8 Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee: and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee.

9 Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the Lord hath wrought this?

10 In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.

I was going to say that the first one is not a butterfly, and then I kept scrolling.

Correct? Scrolling is a skill learned not earned.

There are some pretty hideous folks out there...

Yeah, that guy.....He plays for keeps.

True. I was due for a re-centering.
