Dreaming

Sometimes when Laney is sleeping she will start barking and making a crying sound. I often wonder if she is dreaming. Perhaps she thinks she is playing with other dogs or chasing away those who she thinks will potentially harm us. Maybe she is thinking of taking a walk on a beautiful sunny day. Lately I have thought that I was dreaming. The weather here has gone from Spring to Summer in one day. This time of the year is usually rainy and sometimes snowy, but it is already been in the 80's with lots of sun. Everything is in full bloom. I wonder some days if I am really dreaming and of course I hope I don't awake to find a foot of snow on the ground.This year has definitely started out to be quite different in many ways not just the weather. It was like a bad dream at first but now the clouds have lifted and the beautiful weather has brought new energy and life to me. Laney's enthusiasm to play outside has brought lots of laughter. Possibly today is just a dream but a wonderful dream. Hope it will last a long time. Look to the sky and close your eyes and listen to the sounds that surround you and maybe your dreams will come true.

Angels

Angels are spiritual beings that come and go in our lives. They are people who come into our life at just the right time. Sometimes they are just casual acquaintences that may smile at us and lift up our day or say something positive that changes our lives. Others stay around for the long haul of life. I believe that these people were meant to be in our life. Sometimes we may not know at first that they are meant to change our life. As time goes on we realize what an impact that all people have made in our life. If we choose we can find something good that everyone has done for us. I have choose now to see the angels that have graced me in some of the most disparaging times. Although Laney is not a human, I believe that by some divine intervention she was brought into my life. She has been an uplifting companion for me and loves me unconditionally as I love her. She depends on me and brings a smile to my face every morning. I have learned that routines can be a blessing as a four legged friend will always wake you up and let you know it's time to go to bed. They give us purpose to keep living. They are always happy to see us. They really are a person's best friend. I am blessed to have Laney and all the people who have been angels in my life. Take a moment today and perhaps you will see the angels in your life.
