You Gotta Love A Dog
By TWilson | April 7, 2008
Harry Truman said, “If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog.” He had his reasons for making that statement, but I say you gotta love a dog. Today, while coming back from doing errands, I was laughing to myself as I looked at the car in front of me. Sticking out from the back window was this dog, just sniffing the breeze with its ears blown back by the wind, just loving every minute of having the wind in his face. This dog was as happy as it could be, because it was going from one side of the car to the other sticking its head out the window feeling the cool breeze on its face.
I could only imagine that the driver was very cold because he/she had both windows down and the temperature was in the low 20’s. Only a person who loves dogs would be so accommodating to their pet. But, there was something about seeing that dog, with his head out looking sticking its head into the breeze and just enjoying the moment. That’s when it hit me. This dog didn’t care about anything else, it was just enjoying that moment that point in time.
With the daily pressures each and every one of us face, how often do we take the time to stop and just enjoy a moment in time, letting a figurative cool breeze pass over our face.
You gotta love a dog.
