My thoughts for the day...

Some would say that a woman's best friend is a shopping mall. At times I might agree, but really, I'd rather say that a woman's best friend is a dog. A relationship with a dog is unconditional. No matter what I do, how my mood is, a dog is always there for friendship and support. A dog won't look at if I harm myself. All a dog really cares about is happiness. A dog won't pass judgement or be critical. A dog just wants love and to be loved. With a dog, nobody is ever alone.

People set limits on each other and judge behaviors. No one is ever "FOR ME". There are always conditions. If I don't meet those expectations, I become alone. At least if I had a dog, a dog would still believe in me. A dog will still accept me. After being alone so long if someone wants to be a friend again, I wonder what the motivation is--why should I trust that person again? How do I know if something is for real? A dog never leaves and is always there, no matter what.

The only bad part about a dog is that a dog can't talk to me when I want to talk.
