Copy and pasted from a friend (lots of thoughts for you today Jen!) From time to time, people tell me, lighten up, its just a dog, or thats a lot of money for just a dog. They dont 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 I 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 reason to overcome the day. If you, too, think its just a dog, then you will probably understand phrases like just a friend, just a sunrise, or just a promise. Just a dog brings into my life the very essence of friendship, trust, and pure and unbridled joy. Just a dog brings out the compassion and patience that makes me a better person. Because of just a dog, I will rise 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. I 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 woman. So the next time you hear the phrase just a dog, just smile--because they just dont understand. -Author Unknown
