morning has broken

This morning whilst on my walk with the hound, i reflected back on yesterday and how she had enjoyed her walk with all the family , and then a thought pattern started to form in my brain again. Did she see us as her pack ( well obviously) but did she enjoy the time that we spend together as husky and owner , or should that read owner and human in kiki's case. or did she like going out as a pack with all the family members. My brain would like to say that she picked her quiet time with me, where as the family would probably want her to pick them, but in reality she probably does not care as long as she goes out.
The sunrise was spectacular and so caught up was i with my train of thoughts i failed to notice the telltale signs of the mutt spotting something odd. She pulled and i jumped ( a lesson there is always concerntrate on dog when walking it and not to drift) She jumped because i jumped ( kiki is a coward at times) and we both spent  a minute recovering from the mummy blackbird that had scolded the dog for getting to close to where she was building her nest..
It made me wonder how often i did things like this, drift along, and not notice if Master was pleased with little efforts that i put into doing things ( and no i shouldnt look for rewards but i am human and like praise) See i know when i have done something wrong because
a) there is a chalk mark appear on the board ( sheesh i wish i hadnt have found that little blackboard now)
b) Master makes loud disapproving sighs with an eyebrow raised
c) he lets me know more verbally
The mummy blackbird was only protecting her family this morning from the great white face that stuck her nose in the hedge, but she taught me a lesson as well.... and from today i am going to try and have a time for reflection and not do it when i should be concerntrating on a task.
(well that is if it gets approved)
hugs and light to all
