Many of us are tired of hollow words. Looks that seek to hide a feeling rather than struggle to express it loud and clear. We are tired of advice, censorship, criticism, calculated kisses and rule hugs.
In this society we learn a lot about relationships, but we forget to show unconditional affection, show passion and loyalty without worrying about everyone’s past, we forget that the only way to love is to open our hearts as if they never hurt us.
- If we give a heart with fear.
- We can receive the same thing.
- So some of us continue to mimic each other with the gaze of a dog.
- We continue to wet our eyes and shrink our chests of emotion when we remember those furry angels who had been with us for some time.
- But who are no longer present.
There are so many moments and they are all so good and pure that the only thing that comes to mind is that we have to thank them and claim their passage through the world, because many dogs are pure souls who do not need to speak, because their demonstrations of loyalty and infinite affection are the most beautiful language that many have understood.
As we adopt, win or buy a dog, we assume a commitment and a responsibility, but don’t be afraid, because cleaning, feeding and caring for it will be minimal effort in exchange for all the kindness they give us. A while ago I read this anonymous account that I want to share and that perfectly sums up the why of its existence and its example for us:
Have you ever wondered why dogs live less than humans?
As a veterinarian, I was asked to examine a 10-year-old dog named Belker. The dog’s owners, Ron, his wife Lisa and their little Shane, were very attached to Belker and were waiting for a miracle.
I examined Belker and found out I was dying of cancer. The family said there was nothing we could do for Belker and I offered to practice euthanasia at home.
We made the arrangements, Ron and Lisa said it would be a good idea for Shane, a 6-year-old, to observe the procedure. They felt Shane could learn something from this experience.
The next day, I felt the familiar feeling in my throat when Belker was surrounded by the family. Shane was calm, stroking the dog for the last time and wondering if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slept peacefully to avoid waking up.
The boy seemed to accept Belker’s transition without any difficulty or confusion. We sit down for a moment wondering why the unfortunate fact that dogs’ lives are shorter than that of humans.
Shane, who listened carefully, said, “I know why. “
Surprised, everyone looked at him. What I said then surprised me, I had never heard an explanation more comforting than that, that moment changed the way I saw life.
He said, “We come into the world to learn to live a good life, to love others all the time and to be good people, right?”
“Well, as dogs already know how to do all this, they don’t need to stay as long as we do.
This story simplifies the truth between dogs and humans, both come into the world with feelings and desires to be happy, dogs practice love without limits and have no hard feelings, they only come or go after their relationships. People, however, learn a multitude of knowledge to maintain their feelings for different reasons.
Some say that dogs have no soul, others that they do not understand, that they are just “animals”. However, it seems that we understand everything and sometimes act without soul, compassion and understanding. So don’t listen to those who say yes. they are idiotic animals that can never give you the affection you need, that a dog’s affection can never be compared to that of a person.
We don’t mean that people aren’t able to give love, we do very well when we want to, but a dog will always give love, and their problems or bad manners will never cause psychological suffering.
If you have a hard time, sit back and let a dog look at you and pet you, you may not be able to have it at home, but you can find their business by helping any animal welfare NGO. the purest therapy many will ever try.
When we remember the moments shared with our dog, we only feel tranquility and desire, we could go through a thousand tragedies in our lives that he would never let his guard down to ingest us and look at us with loyalty, those memories are the purest. of hearts and the healing of your business is a treasure that we will always keep with us.
There are situations in which words still remain: just contemplating, accompanying and caressing. Pure love. Unconditional love. True love.
“I just hope that on the day of my death, all the dogs that have been with me in this life will welcome me barking and wagging my tail, and then I will say, “Thank God, I’m in heaven!?”
