The November issue of The National Geographic Magazine features “The Great Migrations”. It traces the meanderings of animals; some flying, some swimming, some running, as their body clocks send them in search of whatever whales and butterflies and birds look for during these events.
We are, ourselves, on the verge of experiencing a migration of a sort.
I am referring to the annual arrival of calendars. Every trip to the mailbox loads you up. Each time you enter the furniture store or your favorite bank, calendars are thrust upon you.
If you have ever contributed to a charity, you will be blessed with a once-a-year “gift”. If you don’t respond promptly, you will be informed that you have forgotten to send your check, and you really should tighten up and get it on the way. This is so they can send you their next solicitation, which will be a ten year supply of address stickers with your name spelled incorrectly.
