So you know, I was thinking this morning, while listening to NPR about how much crap in the world there is to be nervous, worried, afraid about. I was also thinking about how little good it does to be nervous, worried, and afraid.
Then I was thinking about what made me NOT feel these emotions as much, but rather what made me laugh and relax. What made me feel compassion. I realized that it was often Marley and Mary, my dogs, or other animals that come into the store that made me feel good. I think this is true for many people. Our pets bring us comfort and joy. Pets help us feel a little safe. They give us a great gift.
Thanks to them all.
