Lessons From Rosie

Rosie loves life. I have never met another dog that sees the positive in everything. Even an empty food dish is just a future opportunity for something good. If everyone in the world were as happy and content as that puppy it would be a different place. I have compiled a list that I think she would like to share.

Have fun because you can. Get out and enjoy life. Don't sit around complaining that someone did this or that. Sometimes life it too serious. Feel the air on your face and let your ears fly. If a butterfly crosses your path, follow it. If your tail catches your eye, chase it. Don't be afraid to look crazy because sometimes that is just plain fun.

Go for lots of walks and enjoy the fresh air and sun. The leaves are beautiful and you never know what kind of friends your will make on the way. Sometimes baby raccoons and sometimes chipmunks. Make sure to make time for your old friends too. Share a smell or some muddy water... Accept everyday as an opportunity to live life and have adventures. You don't know you don't like something until you try it. But foremost spend time doing things you love and with people you care about.

Do things because you can. Why buy apples when you can pick them? Finally, change the things you can and accept the things you can't. That is what I think Rosie would tell us all.

The end.
