A Separate Peace

                     How Being A Sensitive Has Helped Me Understand Animals.                                                             PART 1 Me (at age 2)  with Honey  When I was a child I had a cocker spaniel named Honey. Honey was my only sibling for a year and a half, until my sister was born.   I loved to play with Honey and dress her in my mom's silk scarves. She was a sweet, patient and loving dog. She was also great with children and people in general.   Honey was my first experience with having a pet, and she was a treasure. I loved her very much.   Growing up,  I was usually told, "You're too sensitive!", as if it were a problem or something to be corrected and dismissed.  But, being told to change something that was a unique and ingrained part of me, was disappointing and sad.  HOW do you change your heart?   The simple answer is, you can't.

The Importance of THE PUPPY BOWL

     Every year, Animal Planet broadcasts their wonderful show called The Puppy Bowl, on Super Bowl Sunday.      But did you know, that along with spotlighting some of most adorable puppies imaginable, they also have a one hundred percent adoption rate for all these pups! Yes, one hundred percent of those puppies get adopted! This year it was 90 adoptale puppies from 48 states! I find that just so heartwarming.      They also find as many rescues from all over the country, including, this year, Florida and Texas, to get the pups from. This year they even featured a puppy, named Mango, who was rescued off the streets of Mexico by Compassion Without Borders , and taken to their other rescue in California.                                                                          Mango      They also featured a gorgeous puppy named Moonshine, who is totally deaf and sight impaired, along with another beauty named Sophie, who has three legs.
