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 phases 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 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. Just a dog brings out whats good in me and diverts my thoughts away from myself and the worries of the day. 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 human. So the next time you hear the phrase just a dog. just smile....because they just dont understand. - Anonymous
