The Brown gull was clearly upset. The White gull had done something prior to our witness to set Brown off. White was wandering around, not really looking to escape, not looking like he really cared at all. Yet Brown cared. Brown cared deeply. White was going to pay. Brown cried at White, begging for satisfaction. Brown even went as far as to try to pry White's beak open. Yet White just wandered. Brown followed.
This dance continued for at least 15 minutes. Not really sure how the curtain finally closed on the dance routine but I'm fairly certain that White finally moved on. Brown continued alone for a bit before finally letting go. Oh, the pain we cause ourselves by clinging and not letting go. Just as big a lesson was the importance of being steady as a mountain and non-attaching.
Thank you Brown and White. Brown, I hope you have found satisfaction and are resting peacefully. And White, perhaps some compassion next time?
