Northern Fairytale

The photographer was sure that he was going to see the end of his huskies when the polar bear marched out of the blue...

Obviously it was a well fed- bear

When we found this information we couldn't wait to share it.
It is a beautiful Christmas present.

The polar bear returned every night that week to play with the dogs

We are coming to the end of the fairytale with a very happy ending

Here is a map of where it all happened

May all your Christmas presents be as nice.

I came in to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and found this beautiful present.
Thank you.

Enjoy the holidays.

Love,
Gisele

Thank you Sue and Vicky.

This is the most beautiful gift to Givnology.
















Merry Christmas

Arf arf!


HouuuUUUUUUULLL


Rooooar!!


Dog and Bear for: "Funny! Happy hollar-daze 2 u all!"

Oh my! I wouldn't want to meet a Polar Bear!!
But I think here there was reciprocal trust, animals can feel this I guess.
I also wonder how the photographer could take good quality pictures, without trembling!!!!

Lovely, lovely!!

Love and Peaceful, joy filled and Merry Christmas.
Margherita



See more lovely pictures here: Polar Bears play

Thank you for the wonderful link Margherita.

I don't think that I would like to hug the polar bear either, but it is nice to share the Christmas spirit with him.
The photographer was really brave.

Animals do share a reciprocal trust, and this is wonderful to see. Maybe the photographer was able to share it as well.

I will be gone in a couple of days until the end of January.




Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas and a very happy and joy filled new year.

Love, Inda

Dearest Inda,
may you enjoy your trip into warmer realms and find the right atmosphere to relax and rebuild your energies and to let your creativity surface, giving it the time to manifest, so that you will be able to realize some new works of art to share with the world. You have a magnificent talent, dear Inda.

May you release all the stress accumulated during the year and bloom anew like those overwhelmingly beautiful Hawaiian flowers!

Before we part for a while, I just had a thought ... we can say together a prayer for these lovely Polar Bears (at a certain safe distance!) who are in danger because of the dissolving of the arctic pack, due to global warming. May the weather stabilize and may catastrophs be avoided. May we all slowly adjust to the change!

Love and big hugs.
Margherita

This thread could be very polarizing!

HoHoHo!

They just went through summer solstice in the southern hemisphere. Felice Navidad - and hot dang summer in the city at the same time.

Hard to imagine. If you don't have fur it's an appealing thought.

Even taken separately they are still as cute as can be.

I don't know if any of you saw this pair on animal planet speaking of interesting interspecies interactions.

Such beautiful contributions, dear yogionefromobie!

No, I have not seen "animal planet", but it surely
must have been interesting.

The interaction of different species IS a wonderful thing to behold, to begin with cats and dogs!

Love and beautiful Season Holidays.
Margherita

Bless those pointy ears!

I looks as if this pair has already spotted next year - there goes Piggy and here comes Rat.

Happy New Year to everybody especially Milo who should satisfy that hunger that has returned and get lots of fresh air and cuddling. If he has to cry a bit he should cry like a baby Pavarotti. I haven't come around as often as I'd like this season but it's always a treat to commune here.

In the midst of Joy to the World, It's a sad day with the loss of Pakistan's first female president and if Mr. Bush has sent his regrets, he should since he personally has contributed to the turmoil in that region. This is a new era with the US about to choose someone better than that, and the two leading candidates are a woman and a very bright fellow of color.

I think we're going to come out of this one o.k. in the USA those of us "down under" the other CA so to speak.

Maybe the polar bears won't lose all those ice platforms they need to sleep on after fishing - at least not so quickly. Perhaps we can take warmth and even generate our electricity from the sunlight and the wind and not disturb our mother earth more than we already have.

The cries of war and the need to express human need through violence is counter-productive and more than a bit sad. This is a time when we tend to focus on the Birth of Jesus and on forgiveness love and renewal. Ghandi would urge us all to seek peace and make our numbers known who favor peace and have the faith to proceed intelligently and without turning against one another.

If a deer and bunny or a wolf and a bear can recognize their commonality, why not we?

Unfortunately what Mark Twain said may be true in terms of the difference between our species and those with fur:

"If you take a starving dog and lead him to prosperity, he will not bite you. This is the principle difference between a dog and a man."

Namaste to all here.

Amen! (and Awomen )

Thank you God and Angels helping catastrophies being avoided for Polar Bears and all creatures affected by climate change. And so it is! Amen.



This is turning into such a wonderful... FAIRYTALE! All these wonderful comments, replies, prayers for dear beautiful aminals... aaawwww! We DO loooove our critters here hum?

Beautifully said dear ONE Yogi Won!

Aaaaahhhhh the message of Jesus, Ghandi, ...faith to proceed intelligently... mmmmm... I'm even feeling the CHRIST-MASS Spirit now!

I always feel, we all share the same air! Deepak Chopra would even say we share hundreds of atoms, even cells from each other! Animals can find commonality, and they are of different species! We are all humans, and yet.... wow....

Hoping mending and healing can happen for all those so terribly and tragicly hurt and killed over there. Sending love and prayers.

Also sending big hugs and kisses to all dear kindred spirits, GIVNOLOGISTS, u no who u r! he he..

HAPPY FAIRYTALE ENDINGS TO ALL!

Love and *LIGHT* *BEING*, Teo (Do, Re, Mi, Far....)

Yes, dear Teo, you are right, this is turning into a wonderful thread with all these special contributions!

THANK you from my heart dear Yogionefromobie for mentioning little Milo. He is better, thanks to God! Now able to cry powerfully when he is hungry! Yes. See him with brother Simon in tender closeness:



I agree with your ponderings. I am sorry for the sacrifice of Benazir Bhutto, she knew it was tough. But her determination will help others to try to defeat injustice.

God bless you both, yogionefromobie and Teo!

In a little hurry, but will be back ...

Love,
Margherita

I love all the replies. Thank you everyone for your contribution.

Love,
Vicky

What a lovely post to greet me.
It is a real fairytale.

Thank you for the link Margherita.
I feel a bit jet lagged and sleepy, just like this:

I found another great picture, see




Love,
Margherita

ps Yoko, don't fall asleep on the ice!

This is wonderful Margherita.
What a healthy breakfast; I just need to add a good cup of coffee and then I will join the bear.

I found this in one of our older posts.
I may feel up to this in a few days. I srill feel a bit jet-lagged at the moment.

It is wonderful to come back to this beautiful post.
Thank you dear friends for the beautiful images.

Love,
Gisele
