Just a dog.....

From time to time, people tell me,"lighten up, its just a dog", or
"that's a lot of money for just a dog".

They don't understand the distance traveled, the time spent or the
costs involved for " just a dog".

Some of my proudest moments have come about with "just a dog".
Many hours have passed and my only company was "just a dog", but l
did not once feel slighted.

Some of my saddest moments have been brought about by "just a dog",
and in those days of darkness, the gentle touch of "just a dog" gave
me comfort , and the reason to overcome the day.

If you too think, its "just a dog", then you probably understand
phases like , "just a friend", "just a sunrise", "just a promise"...

"Just a dog", brings into my life the very essence of friendship, trust and pure unbridled joy.

"Just a dog" brings out the compassion and patience that make me a
better person.

Because of "just a dog" l get up early, take long walks, and look
longingly to the future.

So for me and folks like me, its not "just a dog" but an embodiment of
all the hopes and dreams of the future, the fond memories of the past
and the pure joy of the moment.

Just a dog" brings out the best in me and diverts my thoughts away
from myself and the worries of the day..

l hope that someday they can understand that its not "just a dog",but
the thing that gives me humanity and keeps me from being just a man.

So the next time you hear the phase "just a dog", smile because"they
just don't understand "

Wow, that is great! Thanks for sharing that.
I've always enjoyed this article. And after a day like today, all I can think about it is going home to hug my wigglebums. I cannot wait to see their smiling faces and wiggling butts and get my hugs & kisses. After a particularly tough day, it heals me and I love them all the more for it.
Just beautiful and so true. Thanks for sharing
