To Know LoveFriends, I was sitting here tonight and reflecting on human relationships (even those close to us) vs. our relationships with our animal friends. Human relationships are so complicated. And, it's such a hard thing for many of our human counterparts to understand when we try to explain our compassion for the animals. I spent some time thinking about it, with a little nudge from above (and a few warm, cozy nudges from some furry friends), and it all came down to this:
TO KNOW LOVE
I love you, you don't ask why.
I give, and it makes ME smile.
You love me, just because,
YOU give, and I know love.
Need I say more?
Blessings,
Debra
