I think I understand where “warm-fuzzies” came from.
I am just finishing “Marley & Me” and each time I pick it up, I cry deep, heartfelt tears. If you ever struggle with finding your daily heart connection here’s a bit from John Grogan’s book: “Was it possible for a dog––any dog, but especially a nutty, wildly uncontrollable one like ours––to point humans to the things that really matter in life? I believe it was. Loyalty. Courage. Devotion. Simplicity. Joy. And the things that did not matter, too. A dog has no use for fancy cars or big homes or designer clothes. Status symbols mean nothing to him. A water-logged stick will do just fine. A dog judges others not by their color or creed or class but by who they are inside. A dog doesn’t care if you are rich or poor, educated or illiterate, clever or dull. Give him your heart and he will give you his.”
After writing about the death of Marley in his newspaper column Mr. Grogan received over 800 emails responding with deeply touched hearts. This one, from Elaine, touched my heart the most: “Such short little lives our pets have to spend with us, and they spend most of it waiting for us to come home each day. It is amazing how much love and laughter they bring into our lives and even how much closer we become with each other because of them.”
If you are dating and searching for Ms. or Mr. Right, I recommend you borrow or rent a puppy.
Take it out where there will be lots of people, and watch how easily fears, insecurities and judgments just float away.
People will come up to you, smile, share their joy and connect their hearts to yours, if only for those brief furry moments that you bask in the pure, unadulterated sweetness of an innocent puppy.
You don’t even have to like animals to fall under the spell of a puppy. But if you don’t like animals, you might want to take a look at what that’s about. I suspect there’s a “Heart Condition” needing a little T.L.C.
Make at least one heart connection today, even it it’s with yourself…
From my heart to yours,
