I realized today that I do a lot of projecting. I have been thinking that my dog thinks she hasn't done everything that she wanted to do. Maybe she could have enjoyed agility or maybe she would have like to have had more time at the beach. Suddenly I realized that she is fine. She has always been safe and never hurt. I have always taken care of her health issues so she is ok. And than I realized that it is my concern that I have not done all that I might have wanted to. And that I was projecting my fear of that on to my dog. If I really take a look at my dog I know she is fine and more than likely not wanting for too much more than she has. She is a good friend.
