Woofs of Wisdom

To live in the present,
Enjoy every moment to the fullest.
To play, jump with joy,
Embrace the funny side of life.
To enjoy long walks in the nature, and those long drives,
Peeking through the window, watching the world go by.
To stay happy in the face of adversity
Wake up to the sunshine every single day.
To accept others the way they are
To always be my real self.
To give more, expect less, To listen more, speak less.
To love unconditionally, and Live passionately.
There are countless other lessons
that dogs teach me about life,
With their wordless woofs,
soul-piercing gaze and heart-tugging tail wags.
