Selfless, loyal, enthusiastic, energetic, happy, adorable…I
wonder if I can come up with enough adjectives to describe the most wonderful
creation on the earth- DOGS! This place would have been so much different without them. Dogs
can never be stereotyped for just being a man’s best friend; it goes without
saying that they are everyone’s best friends.
Some of the researches suggest that humans and dogs shared an
ancestral relation millions of years ago, so it would not be surprising to say
we may have similarities in our traits. Or may be get along so well because the
some of the refluxes in our brain work along the same line. We may be alike at
certain times, yet we are very different extensively.
We come across many people in life; they may or may not stay
with us through out. One person might not fit into someone else’s shoes, but
unlike us dogs have an incredible skill of replacing their own species even
without trying hard. Human relationships are always under constant stress and
scrutiny; they can suffer from good and bad times, but with dogs the equation
never changes. Even the most strenuous pain seems to fade away the moment we
see them.
We always have a lousy habit of remembering all the people who have wronged us and hold grudge against them for the rest of our lives, but dogs are gifted with greatest sense of forgiveness. No matter how we treat them, they forgive, forget and ensure to give us everything in their ability to make us happy. Depressed, thrilled, happy, sad, excited.. any state of mind we are in; dogs try to match up to our emotional mood swings in a way we expect someone to be. Call it coincidence or art of interpretation; their intense odoriferous sense helps them judge people better than we do, assertively making them look out for us in the crappiest situations.
They can be friends when you need them to be, a child when you treat them to be, a toy when you squeeze them, a “dog” when you want them. They bring in energy into our life making us more enthusiastic and healthy. They inspire you in a way no one else does, by surrendering himself yet expecting nothing. Disappointment is never a part of their dictionary. Unnecessary aspects in life do not ridicule them; they follow the idiom Live and Let Live. If only we all could be as beautiful as dogs are, we would not be trying to live our life vicariously through them.
