Do You Want a Family Cow?
“ When
you have a cow, you have it all.” - William
Corbett, 19th century essayist
If someone offered you a
cow tomorrow, you might well laugh. Where would
you keep her? How would you learn how and find
the time to take care of her? How could you handle
all that work? How could you find time to milk
her? A score of other questions would come to
mind, adding up to a rather emphatic answer to
the offer: “No way!”
And yet, you may well think
that it would be nice to have your own cow, were
it not for all those objections. Making a decision
about a major purchase – and whatever you
pay for her, your first cow may well be the major
purchase of your life – depends on resolving
objections. I hope to help as many of you as possible
decide that you’re going to have your own
cow. To that end, let’s examine your objections
one by one and in the process learn a bit about
cow care. We’ll end with some thoughts about
the unique and wonderful benefits of having your
very own bovine.
