I’m
sure we all continue to miss Charles Schulz and the wonderful messages he taught
through his characters in Peanuts. There is an old Peanuts strip
that shows Charlie Brown and Schroeder walking and in a deep discussion. Schroeder
asks, “Is Snoopy a hunting dog?” “I guess he is in a way,” says Charlie Brown.
Schroeder then asks, “What does he hunt, animals or birds?” “Neither,” says
Charlie, “What he hunts for mostly is an easier way of life.” We may all be
tempted to join that hunt. Maybe we ought to hunt for a more fulfilling way
of life.
