Dog in Park

I met this sweet old dog the other day at the park.  She, like most older dogs, was greying and pretty docile. I love old dogs.  They've seen it all.  They've worked out the kinks.  They just are what they are, without artifice or guile. We are blessed with a couple of older dogs.  I am learning a lot from them about how to become a better person ~ a more gentle, loving and compassionate person.  Our old dogs are always happy to see us, always full of gratitude and love.  I want to be an old dog.
