I'm thinking about how good things can be. I'm looking out my window now, at the little tree outside my house, and I feel mesmerized by how the leaves move with the wind.

I love so, so deeply all the little things in life. Things can be awful, sure, especially people, but there's so many teensy tiny things that feel so special.

I hope I could learn to appreciate and experience the wonders of the world like other people can, and perhaps my experiences would make me more privy to them.

No matter how bad my personal problems are, my little tree still remains outside my house. It loses its leaves in the fall, but then they come right back after the winter. Maybe I could be like my little tree someday, too, learning to be myself again.

All just silly thoughts of mine. I needn't blabber more. I like the cycle of life, is all, even though it can be sad sometimes!

I got to pet the cutest little dog the other day at the grocery store when i locked up my e-scooter. It was some sort of Maltese dog i think only with more brownish fur. It looked scared at first but after i offered it my hand for a sniff it showed me it was okay for me to touch it. It's fur was sooo soft. My grandmother always used to say dogs are angels and i believe her.

It looked kinda like this one:

I had a dog once. A Westhighland White Terrier but he died in 2010 and i still miss him a lot. He was a lot bigger but also very sweet and very cuddly. I hope he has a nice afterlife in heaven.

I think there's something so wonderful about us being able to connect with animals different from us. This dog sounds like the most adorable thing in the world !!! I really love little encounters like that. I'm not spiritual, but it feels like the gentlest of reminders that maybe things can be ok after all. The bond people can develop with animals is such an incredible thing.

True, especially dogs. I always wish i could be friends with other animals too.
