Trauma Llama Blues

In spite of our best efforts to connect with Francesca, she seems unwilling to engage in any relationship where snacks aren’t present. She is clearly a guardian llama. This was evident the moment we brought the baby goats home last year. She watches over her charges with the utmost care and attention, yet won’t throw a glance our way. It feels personal. I have all but given up hope that our relationship will go anywhere besides her eating snacks out of my hand. Like a pitiful plateau of relationship stagnation, there is no forward progress. I bought llama books and pored over the different pieces of training, attempted different methods of connecting with her and I am stumped. Ultimately, my efforts have been futile and I am left with no choice but to accept our lack of connection. I'm disappointed but I'm still going to keep trying to find a way to connect with her, even if it takes forever.

For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.2 Timothy 1.

Hear that Fran?! You are a gift from God and Im coming after your heart and laying on my hands! HA! All the amens! Strap in sister! You’re gonna love me I just know it.
