Ignore Cow Patties: Ignore Cow Patties

Ignore Cow Patties is a book about walking through a cow pasture finding the identity of one’s self. The book opens with the character only referred to as Traveler driving through green pastures when his car breaks down. With every decision the traveler becomes closer to understanding the landscape as well as the person he sees when he looks in the mirror. It speaks of the spirit but it’s not a religious book. It is a sometimes whimsical, a realistic analogy of self-reliance, spirituality hand in hand and how we shape the person we become by the decisions we make. About the Author Venison Nelson is from the West End neighborhood of Birmingham, AL. He now resides in Atlanta, Ga. He made several bad mistakes and thankful for each one. He has no trophies, awards, degrees, certifications or diplomas but has been blessed to do just about anything he has set his desire to do. He believes there isn’t a accolade anyone can give for his experience. The reason for writing this book is a much longer story than the book itself. Venison always knew he viewed things differently than others. He was raised by his mother who was a Buddhist and his grandmother who was the Church Mother of Beulah Baptist Church. This introduced the question of Who is the true God? at an early age. As he became older the journey/adventure ensued. Venison attempts to take augmented approaches to the science of discovering your own identity and potential, belief in self-reliance and hommage to a higher power. Ignore Cow Patties is a metaphor for life. We all are in a pasture of green grass, what do you focus on, the grass, where you’re going, the beauty of your surroundings, or the cow patties?
