Some people could take a lesson from a dog.
I read about a dog who spends part of everyday at his owner's grave site. Just yesterday there was a story on my welcome screen accompanied by a photograph of a dog whose owner had fallen through the ice, the dog stayed right there with him.
I get a little emotional when I watch videos of soldiers returning from war and are greeted by their pets. I don't think it would be exaggerating to say those dogs are happier than the soldiers human family members.
I could do without most humans in my life but I couldn't do without the animals. I'm fucked in the head that way, I appreciate them more than I do most people.
