Look of Love

I have the look of love, and I need a Valentine to turn this gray sky to blue. Will that be woo? Who will be my Valentine?

It is St. Valentine's Day. A day for sweethearts to express their love. But you don't need to have a sweetheart to celebrate Valentine's Day. Share a Valentine with your friend, your kennel mates, your dog park buddies, or any animal or human whose friendship you enjoy, or whom you notice needs some love in their life!

I pawed this Valentine poem for my human, K, using one of her favorite songs:

When I see you with bones, my tummy sings in delight. You love me, yes you do, and I love you lots, too. You give me toys and treats, and long walks in the park. I am a lucky dog, for being in your heart.

Nothing trumps Love. Nothing can conquer Love. Love is Eternal. Love is Omnipotent. Love Is. And with the power of Love we can defeat anything. Let the light of Love shine through in your hearts, your mind, your thoughts, your actions, your deeds, and your speech. There are so many unhappy and lonely animals and humans in the World whose hearts would sing with just the smallest gesture of love. So be generous in sharing and giving your Love, for the power of a kind word, a kind act, a kind gesture, is amazing.

I shall end this Valentine's Day post with a lovely poem entitled "Love's Philosophy," written by Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822):

The fountains mingle with the river
And the rivers with the ocean,
The winds of Heaven mix for ever
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single,
All things by a law divine
In one spirit meet and mingle -
Why not I with thine?
Be lucky in love. Happy Valentine's Day! I hope I get more than one Valentine because the more Valentines I have, the more boxes of chocolate covered yummy bunnies I will get! I'm just sayin'...

I love the poem! I'm a day late, but you may have a taker in our pack. :)

Suka, my friend, you are SO wise sometimes. Why shouldn't we dogs have our own traditions? Human stuff like governments and driving just are not our way (and frankly, I think our way is often better)! Hope you are having a good day...and K, too!

Suka, my friend, I could use some of your wisdom and perspective tonight. My heart is very heavy with grief and I am wondering why horrible things happen to good people (two- and four-legged). I learned today that our friends in Canada, Casper and Friends, had a devastating house fire and worse than that Jazzy, a beautiful friendly foster Eskie didn't make it out. Her human tried and tried to rescue her but Jazzy was scared and hid and could not be found. It is not fair!

Thanks for the words of comfort, my friend. I knew I could count on you to help me find balance and perspective...although I don't think ANYONE will help me find understanding. You made me ache a little less.

We don't think it's too late to say...

Happy Valentine's Day, Suka!!!

Licks.. licks.. licks...

With lots of luv,
Adele, Vincent & Bella

What a loving, caring friend you are! Thanks for staying by my side to help me through Jazzy's tragedy. I still am sad but am working through the heart ache and the fear and the uncertainty that it stirred up. You are so kind to nose me back into the "now" and the wonderful things of the Universe. It is important to have that balance. Thanks for being there.
