The world is full of shocking news which prompted the question of how I stay so positive. I admit I tend to keep my television off and my social media to a minimum which allows me to control my emotions. I read my news the old-fashioned way via newspaper, so I get a digested report instead of breaking news which keeps useless anxiety at bay.
The real secret is my golden doodle. How can you have a difficult day when you look into those brown eyes?! Big Guy and I walk her every day. There is sheer joy on her face and an extra bounce in her step which encourages Big Guy and I to do the same as we share these walks. Plus, she is quite the celebrity as most of the neighborhood knows her by name. If we mention the name of a friend, or her groomer Ms. Maggie, she cocks her head and starts to wag her tail. The best part of the day is when we have our happy hour. Doodle has her special treat after doing her happy dance and high fives with me. Pure joy, love, and excitement. It doesn’t get any better.
