An Action, Noted
Actually, they weren’t. The consciousness of each animal was very small. Eat, sleep, breed, no overt threats--and they were happy. Their overall consciousness, however, had noted this new addition to the environment. It had not yet considered it a threat. The edge of the cliff had always been considered a dangerous area. The young of the herd, and even the older members if particularly startled, could wander over the edge, so the instructions were to avoid it at all times. And whatever was going on over there seemed to be confined to that edge, and no other threatening actions took place. Thus the actions of the humanoids were noted, classified, and observed--but no action was taken.
A rather short little section today in Island People, but it starts a new perspective. Just a reminder for those new to my stack, Island People is a re-posting of an old series of books I wrote, years ago, never really edited etc. I would love comments on the story, and feel free to correct spelling, etc.
Thank you for reading Von’s Substack. I would love it if you commented! I love hearing from readers, especially critical comments. I would love to start more letter exchanges, so if there’s a subject you’re interested in, get writing and tag me!
Being ‘restacked’ and mentioned in ‘notes’ is very important for lesser-known stacks so… feel free! I’m semi-retired and write as a ministry (and for fun) so you don’t need to feel guilty you aren’t paying for anything, but if you enjoy my writing (even if you dramatically disagree with it), then restack, please! Or mention me in one of your own posts.
If I don’t write you back it is almost certain that I didn’t see it, so please feel free to comment and link to your post. Or if you just think I would be interested in your post!
If you get lost, check out my ‘Table of Contents’ which I try to keep up to date.
Thanks again, God Bless, Soli Deo gloria,
Von
