My dogs teach me so much about love. They are so accepting of everyone’s moods…including mine. When little kids are crying, they patiently and lovingly sit next to them until they are done, gazing at the child with their soulful eyes. No judgment, just love. Some kids are angry or stressed by some recent experience and my dogs respond with patience and calm breaths, gently grounding the kids and reminding them without words that despite their mood, love is still there for them.
