Today I had a snow day. A gift from the gods. A much-needed break from my routine.
One of the things I got to do (since I wasn't slaving over a hot smartboard) was play two long games of fetch with Radar. My dog loves to race after a ball--over and over. Leaping into the air for it, chasing it across the yard, running circles around a tree--he's thrilled. All I have to do is put on my coat and head towards the kitchen door and Radar's so excited, he's whirling in circles.
What if we got ecstatic over such a simple thing? What if we were willing to show our excitement... so that others could share in our joy?
I think I've linked this video before, but it shows exactly why I'm drawn to golden retrievers...
