THE Bestie

 Recently was celebrated one of the best days. Can you guess which one? Yes, you nailed it. I am referring to the recently celebrated International Dog Day. 

Well, time was when 'dog's life' would refer to a tough, difficult, nay, impossible life. Now,the term would often refer to the most comfy, cushy, relaxed life. And why not indeed? Dogs do deserve a good life.

Why? 'Coz in a wicked world full of self-obsessed entities, dogs are the only islands full of all that is selfless love and genuine devotion. Very, very few human beings can match that kind of 'giving' without expecting much in reward except kindness and love.

In the world of pets, cats are the best example of self-obsessions, plural intended, consciously used. A cat owns your house, and treats you as her slave. A dog, on the contrary, loves you and yours, be it household or people.

The wild joy a dog feels at your sight can be the best balm to a wounded soul. Best solace that can cure any and every hurt indeed! For your dog, do not give him any fancy food, but do spare for him at least some ten minutes of daily togetherness. Believe me, there IS a gentle smile of pure affection on the dog's visage which, may be, is one of the best blessings you may ever get.

His anxiety of separation when he guesses that you are about to leave is palpable. His unhappiness IS writ large over his expressive face. How many people notice you, your gestures, your movements, or so keenly respond to you? Very FEW, right? So enjoy that sunshine of a blessed feel as long as it lasts 

Pratima@ Best wishes to THE Bestie who understands and responds to every feel and each mood of yours! A dog is god, read the reverse way.
