Yes, I like that statement too - it's one of those simple ones where you think "I know that already" - but most of us seem to get caught up in the stress so easily (I know I do sometimes). I find it esp important to try to make time in the morning to center. It makes a big difference in how I start my day. Hi Justin,

I am at my best when I am calm. cool and collected. I take at least 5 minutes daily to sit still, relax, reflect and create the life that I want. Hi Marianne,

(By the way, I don’t have a dog – I have cats, and it was one of my cats who was grieving the loss of his cat companion.) I agree with you about the importance of making arrangements in case something happens to the owner. The dog in the movie had a new caring home, but he kept leaving, because he couldn’t stop mourning his master. He wasn’t homeless; he ran away. He needed help to get through the grief, and getting a new home with loving people was not enough. Hi Marty,

See, for example, my article, "Providing for Pet Care in Your Absence".
