Praying for Peace: A Lesson from My Dogs

Harley and guide dog, Nira
Harley and guide dog, Nira

The little dog loves the big dog and she in turn loves him. Don’t tell me that animals don’t have depth of feeling.

This morning Lhasa “Harley” chased guide dog “Nira” because she snuck up on him and stole his tennis ball. She ran in widening circles and then, when the little guy was almost frenzied, she gently put the ball in front of him and wagged her tail.

Let all the dog love glide noiselessly forth on this world day of prayer.
