rabbit in the back yard

Making my green tea this morning and i glanced out the window to see Mr. Bunny eating his morning greens.   I stopped to watch her for a while.  How nervous she was, always with a wide eye and quick side glances.  Looks like she is always in her head worrying ... There is an Native American story about the rabbit who always calls out to fear... calling out in fear to lion to come and eat her... and one day lion did........ funny how that works.. think the worst and it comes true.....as Buddha says : 

"All that we are is the result of what we have thought; it is founded on our thought, and it is made up of our thoughts. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him like a shadow that never leaves him.". 

Little rabbit.... always talking from the fear side of things..rabbit in the back yard... just don't want to keep feeding her... and i am afraid she will always be there.... Maybe i should go out and get to know her...so she will begin to trust me.. Then maybe I could feel her soft fur and find peace..
