As We Are: Friendship's Freedom

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:
"Friends can help each other. A true friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself - and especially to feel. Or, not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is fine with them. That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is."

  I'm not sure Maggie knows she's a dog. She knows she's a friend. She knows she loves the back massages with paralyzing stillness. She knows she loves her human family. We know we love Maggie even with a raggedy tennis ball stuffed in her mouth. Friends accept friends just as they are. We love how Maggie is in her lumbering way infects us with her love bug contagion. Right side up or right side down we accept Maggie just as she comes. She accepts us. A friendship lick & hug and we're feeling her love back- as we are.
