Unconditional Love

Relationships are something we really have to work at to make it successful. Often times they are very frustrating, because we feel unappreciated for what we contribute. So sometimes, we don't contribute at all. Ever been in a relationship where you were giving and giving but never got any- thing back? That kind of relationship never lasts for very long, unless the giver just gives up on ever having a healthy relationship. Fortunately, dogs don't think like humans. They love unconditionally, even when being abused. If people were like dogs in that sense, we would see many less divorces. Have you ever yelled at the dog because you were upset with someone else? I have, then I felt horrible afterwords. The dog will always forgive us though, no matter how much we might yell. They seek to please us, even though we don't deserve it. Don't take your anger out on the dog, he's probably the last one in the house that deserves to be yelled at. They feel bad for us when we are sad, so they try to cheer us up, when we are happy, they are happy with us. They are such emotional creatures, too bad we couldn't all be that way isn't it?
