A L O H A !
Next time you are feeling
anxious about life in this so-called
"dog eat dog" world of ours
stop and think about
actual dogs you have known.
They're not eating each other, usually.
Think of the thrill of recognition
that "kid-you" felt when
you looked into the eyes of your pet.
You felt loved,
your dog followed you every where.
And though there are those
who believe in fear-leadership
dogs lay down their lives,
or return from thousands
of miles away,
for love.
Yes, an elemental love
looks back at you
through the eyes of nature.
Pets often take the
role of protector,
a caring friend
by the sick bed.
They try to assist
and research shows
positive health affects
just from seeing
or touching them.
When I feel pain
Pixie comes near in concern.
When she brushes my ankles
or settles nearby
my pain is lessened
my spirit leaps.
So thank you to
our companions
who heal, love,
and teach us!
And Thank YOU
For Your Aloha,
Warmly, Cloudia
