Animals, beautiful creatures
Got this via email and it just about moved me to tears…










Animals inspire me. And it is all the more inspiring to see an animal dealing with and adjusting to such adversity, and more importantly, showing US that if they can do it, there’s no reason why we can’t do the same, regardless of the severity of our ‘disabilities’.

I read a lot. And I read a lot of pet memoirs. Anyone who reads pet memoirs will know that almost every book will have a chapter on the inevitable i.e. when the dearly loved pet passes on.
And I will also inevitably shed tears when I read this part of the story. Each time, without fail. The latest book, A Friend Like Henry. It is more heart-wrenching to read about the death of an animal when s/he has given so much to his/her owners, in this case, Henry the golden retriever brings an autistic boy out of his shell and helps him integrate into mainstream society.
What can I say? Animals are beautiful creatures who never fail to inspire me time and time again.
hahah, when i first showed this to rizal, at first glance, he said, “stupid dog, what’s he doing?”
i said, “oi, look closer la!”
and then he realised it had only the two hind legs. such a marvel, this dog! so poor thing but so heartwarming and heartwrenching at the same time.
Yaaaaa… isn’t it? Can u imagine how difficult it is for her to balance on her hind legs?!
Btw, I think it’s a she…
