SAMMIE THE SNORKIE - WHAT I ASKED FOR....

Hello Everyone

A few years back I came across the following and would like to share it with you today....

WHAT I ASKED FOR, WHAT I NEEDED

When I got my new dog

I asked for strength that I might rear her perfectly,
I was given weakness that I might feed her more treats.

I asked for good health that I might rest easy,
I was given a "special needs" dog that I might know nurturing.

I asked for an obedient dog that I might feel proud,
I was given stubbornness that I might feel humble.

I asked for compliance that I might feel masterful,
I was given a clown that I might laugh.

I asked for a companion that I might not feel lonely,
I was given a best friend that I would feel loved.

I got nothing I asked for,
But everything that I needed.
I got a dog.

Sometimes we take our pets for granted, and at times don't spend as much time with them as we would like to. I think the above keeps it all in perspective for us.

Have a Great Weekend my friends!
