Choosing Love and Joy In Times Of Tragedy
Monday Inspiration: Dogs Bring People Together
Recently, there has been a lot of panic and sadness due to hate in our world. It is important to remember that love exists, and loving others unconditionally is the strongest way to resist the violence. Dogs are a huge inspiration for us, able to love and trust people, even after hardship. We often look at the human-animal bond as a place of inspiration, especially in times of tragedy. Rescue dogs are a prime example of a dog’s love, learning to trust after neglect and care about their owners the same as any other dog.
