“It costs so much to be a full human being that there are very few who have the enlightenment or the courage to pay the price.
One has to abandon altogether the search for security and reach out to the risk of living with both arms open.
One has to embrace the world like a lover.
One has to accept pain as a condition of existence.
One has to court doubt and darkness as the cost of knowing.
One needs a will stubborn in conflict, but apt always to total acceptance of every consequence of living and dying."
Morris West
The 'Good Dog Blog' is a direct reflection of my life, which has always been an open book. I like it that way - feels refreshing in a 'no where to hide, no lies to conceal' kind of way. I mention this because writing 'The Dog' involves a great deal of soul searching.
In creating 'The Dog,' as many have come to call it, I have many inspirations. The purpose of this blog is to share these 'inspirations' with you. I write what I need to hear, so it's fairly easy to see where my heads at. It's my intention to offer a little more personal insight into the dog's daily rantings.
Often, after putting out a dog, I hear from folks asking "What were you thinking?" I choose to think they were curiously asking for an explanation as opposed to tossing their judgments at me. I'm not real kean on unsolicited suggestions or personal judgments. They make me kind of grouchy.
Please feel free to comment. Be nice. I'm overly sensitive.
May 'The Dog' be with.
