Deep thoughts......

Just a little observation I made lately.... A life lesson of sorts... Pay attention people...

No one MAKES you feel uncomfortable. No one MAKES you scared. No one MAKES you sad. No one MAKES you feel anything, unless YOU ALLOW them to make you feel that way. Only you have control of your own feelings. I think that if you believe that someone else has made you feel uncomfortable, it is much more likely that your guilty conscience is nipping at you! So take that mirror that you are pointing at everyone else and turn that sucker around. Look at the reflection. The buck stops there.

Why is it that some people fear the act of taking responsibility for their own actions and then lie about it later? What exactly is happening in their minds that they justify this to be OK? It really makes me wonder. Were they taught this from their parents or their parents' parents? Did they never learn the importance of honesty and integrity and minding their own business? Is it fear – fear that someone will not accept you? Is it ignorance – not knowing or caring about right from wrong? Is it lack of self confidence – putting others down or back stabbing to make yourself feel better?

What do you think? Am I way off on this one? Let me know what you think.

On a much happier note.... :) We took Rocky over to the Foxboro Dog Park tonight for a "romp" around. He had lots of fun. He was the only dog barking. All the others were playing with each other. Playing fetch. Swimming. Chasing each other. Not our Rocky. Oh, he wanted to play, chase, fetch, all that.... but he wanted to be heard while he was doing it. What a great place that was. All the dogs were playing and running around in the open fences. It was great. It really tuckered him out. I think we will be going back there often. We actually saw a full grown hound..... OH BOY! Yup, he's gonna be big! He wasn't a Treeing Walker. He looked different. He was just black and white. Um, yeah. He's gonna be big.

Off to bed. I have some rest to catch up on. Going to North Conway soon. Looking forward to that. I will miss my brat dog while I'm gone though. Hes staying at the Red Dog Inn, so he'll be just fine......

Sianara!
