My dog Rosy likes to dig. I’ve taken many picture of her digging up our back yard, and have adopted the policy that her digging will someday unearth buried treasure. I also tell myself that she’s prepping the earth for a patio. Sometimes we just have to look for the positive aspects of life in order to make the best out of a situation that we can’t really, or don’t wish to, control.
The other day, Rosy was digging, as usual, in the backyard, spewing the rich, thawed loam of the earth with abandoned joy. Her older sister, Daisy, was also outside, resting, and I realized what a marvelous partnership they had developed.
Look for the light of joy inside your days, even when you feel thorns pressing on your back. Beauty is always waiting to be seen.
The Light Behind the Story 
Beautiful thoughts…… and you know how I love dogs!

Aren’t dogs wonderful! If Rosy has any luck with finding treasure in your yard, I have a place where we lost some things many years ago…
