“If you love life and desire to see good days, keep your tongue from evil and your lips from deceit. Turn from evil and do good. Seek peace and pursue it.” ~Psalm 34:12-14
“And finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think on these things.” ~Philippians 4:8
The world has an overabundance of angry and fearful protestors. But there are always openings available for those who seek peace and demonstrate hope.

I think I really needed that picture Mitch, you’re right. Animals pull us into their simpler world if we let them. My dogs are a great source of entertainment for me in this regard
