My favorite line from this editorial is: "What is clear is that animals often fill a void that transcends service, entertainment or companionship and that is deeply connected to our need to love and be loved. When Asheville, a mixed breed, died several years ago, a friend said, “I know you must miss her so much because you loved her so much.” And I said, “No, I miss her because she loved me so much.”
So very true. Dogs make great companions on life's journey. A gift we can't ever truly deserve but one we have none the less. I can't imagine mine without one or two of them to share my home and hearth with. Every day they never fail to put a smile on my face. They're truly a gift from God imho and I am eternally grateful for it.
