Purely Unconditional

Too often, we come across the definition of LOVE as selfless, humble, chaste, and surpassing.  Come to think of it, how many of us have experienced these meanings? How many of us have exercised this definition of love and how many of us have received this kind of Love?  I guess more than emotions, Love can be a state of mind... It might seem like a wonderful flower, but later on, it might turn out to be a weed.  However, before we get totally devastated and hopeless with the idea of love, let's not forget that love is not only limited between two individuals. It may also transpire between you and your pet.

At one point in our lives, we've had a pet that we'd treasure most and care for very dearly...Most commonly, we have dogs.  The most domesticated animal, and probably the most loving of all.  They have not been labeled man's best friend for nothing.  Come to think of it, a dog will walk you from your doorstep all the way to the house gates and back as if to send you off and wish you well, and when you arrive, they are the first ones that jump giddily and bark loudly as to welcome you once again.  They don't care if they do this everyday, they're happy.  What they know is that we are their master and they are loyal to us.  Let's come clean, at times when we feel down, heartbroken or alone, we can always find comfort with our dogs,  They stay beside us, though they may not speak of any words, there is somehow a sense of comfort that they radiate towards us.  They make us feel that amidst the cruelties and harshness of the outside world, surely, God still has created something good and unselfish.  

Have you ever recalled the time when your dog did something wrong? You were so mad, maybe you laid a hand on him, screamed at him and told him to get lost.  But being as pious as they are, they chose not to use their razor sharp teeth and claws to get back to us, instead, they quietly cower around the corner of the room,  and when we call them...they come rushing back towards us...as if we did them no harm and they did not even ask us to beg them for forgiveness.

You see, this is the beauty of life...it makes us realize that hope is always there.  That despite the scarred disposition of love that envelopes human race, unexpected blessings from little creatures could produce profound goodness that will make us feel that there is still a ray of light that may take us out of our misery and provide us with unrelenting and unblemished love...the one which comes from our very own fluffy, cuddly and adorable dogs...

simply LOVE...

Pure and Unconditional!
