Black and White Sunday: Tongues

10-6-16Radiator, water-lapper, healer of wounds, food conveyor, register of tastes, texture sensor, wet equivalent of a dog’s handshake.

A dog’s tongue has more responsibilities than any other part of the dog anatomy — excluding the brain.  And oddly enough, for all its duties and actions, it is one of the most maintenance free structures of all the dog’s body parts! – Toungue Talk

Black and White Sunday: Dear Mom

10-16-16

Dear Mom –

I just want you to know that no matter what anyone says, you are the best Mom in the whole wide universe, I don’t mean to wake you up at 3 AM barking at nothing. Or chase the cats. Or whine endlessly while you are trying to go to sleep. It was not my fault that the loud noises over head with those light flashes made me so scared that I ate through the door to find shelter in the laundry room. I don’t like noises, Mom. They hurt my head and I want to attack them. I am really sensitive and I don’t like when you are not in the house with me. I stick to you, like thistles stick to my coat, because you make me feel calm and safe. It is not my fault that my brain is wired a little different than other beings. I have these terrible dreams at night and they wake me and make me want to attack the air. I need to always be sucking on something to calm my nerves. Thank you for all the toys, especially the catnip toys, that help me find comfort in every room. Together we can overcome anything, Mom. I am your fluffball, your ‘sodapop.’ I am your Sofie Bear and I know that you rescued me because we were meant to be together. I love you, Mom. I hope that my face shows you that everytime I look at you.

– Love always and furever

Sofie Bear.

Black and White Sunday: Being Dog

10-9-16

This is the time of year that I look at the year past, and try to make amends for any wrong doing, and then look ahead to the year to come, hopefully with a clean slate. Dogs don’t know about that stuff. Anything they did, good or bad, is in the past, and they just move on from there. They tend to live in the moment. I aspire to be more like a dog sometimes. The past, is gone, I can remember it and learn from it, but I can not change it. Staying in the past will only make me sad. I always try to be a better human going forward. That is something that I can affect. But, on the other hand, worrying too much about the future can make me anxious. It is best not to go too far out (except maybe with retirement planning :-)). Being present, being in the now, being ‘dog,’ seems to be a great place to be.

Happy Sunday!

There are really no words that can describe the horror of this event. Since I live in the Washington DC area, and come from New York, these attacks effected so many people that I know. From my cousins who were first responders at the Pentagon, my friend working inside the Pentagon when it was hit and survived, my family and friends working in Manhattan at the time of the attack, my colleague on the plane that went down in Pennsylvania and the one that perished in the second tower, I will never forget you. This is just so wrong. Yet, people around the world live with this terror everyday of their lives. I pray everyday for an end to this violence. This is not the answer to anything. But those of you reading this know that. Light a candle with me and maybe together our collective energy will do some good. Peace be with you. – Lorian
