Unconditional Love for All Things
What a magnificent work. I enjoyed following
along the beautiful stories and connections
in the first half and enjoyed your knowledge
immensely. The second part, though, was
magnificent in its gentle relationships, its
intuitive knowing, its feeling of
compassion.
There is so much to learn from our pets. In
fact the word is inadequate. I had a
Pekingese/Poodle mix for 18 years. He never
was on a leash, yet he never wandered; we
had connected. He would hike with me and go
most everywhere I went. I took him when he
was five weeks old as the owner was going to
kill him along with the rest of the litter,
as she was so upset that the neighbors’
Pekingese raped her “prize” poodle.
Every time I looked in the dog’s eyes I saw
compassion, love, understanding and God. Why
is it that any one around a dog for a while
can feel God, but less often around people.
I believe the feeling of total giving in
both directions, caring, joy to be with,
unconditional love are just some of the
characteristics of God. I am sure much of
society might be offended at the sharing of
God and a dog on the same page would be
blasphemy. When we think of God we too often
think of Big, Up There, Spectacular, Outside
Ourselves, Special Places, Special Times.
No, to me God is the simple times of
release, non-judging, joy, unconditional
giving, unconditional love for all things.
This to is how I would describe my dogs, and
your book. Thank you for a special gift.
