How do I Approach the Quails?
“How do I approach the quails?” I asked my friend Ralph.
Recently, I had decided to start asking around for a business coach. I realized I needed a business coach after losing my steam about creating a business. I had wanted to get the word out about obedience classes being for humans, not dogs. I thought dogs would be beating down the door to drag their humans to obedience classes.
The little ground squirrel told me the quails might help me find a business coach, so I decided my next step would be to find the quails.
I found them okay but talking to them was another story. They ran off before I could say anything.
“It sounds like you scared them,” Ralph said. Ralph is my outdoor friend. I don’t know what type of animal he is, I can only see his eyes.
“I wasn’t trying to scare them,” I said. “I only wanted to ask a question.”
Ralph slowly blinked his eyes. “Maybe they don’t want to answer questions.”
“But it’s just a little question,” I said.
“I don’t know if that matters,” Ralph said. “A question is a question.”
I put my head down and signed. Why is this so difficult?
