This is Fruitycake. It’s been a bit challenging up here on the mountain lately. Rain. Cold. More rain. More cold.
Slipping. Sliding. Away.
There is no use worrying about tomorrow when you have enough problems each day. Sometimes, that is all you can deal with at one time.
So do you know what I do on those days? I start stretching. I start reaching for the sun.
Because stretching out towards something better is more productive than being sad.
Being sad is very hard to shake off. Even harder than the rain.
As happy as I am, I know that it’s hard for persons to be that way all of the time. But us dogs don’t have it perfect either.
We have our own problems in our mind. Each one us, animal or person.
Things that are hard for each one of us. Things that we have to talk ourselves into each day.
But if I can go out in the rain here today, you can deal with your rain too. And if for some reason, you have any left over sunshiney, help someone else reach for theirs.
Maybe if we all share today, the world will be just a little brighter.
