Canine Courtesies

Quote:
Watching others make friends, as A dog makes friends, I mark the manner of these
canine courtesies and think, 'thank God, here comes another enemy'.
Cyrano de Bergerac-I've read it half a dozen times and watched 2 or 3 versions on film-it's immortal.
I'm pretty lucky here on this board-a lot of places people feel I'm weak or cowardly for not being aggressive and fighting for my place in the sun.It's never worked for me.
When I finally found religion one thing I rejoiced in was that I could express my pacifism and I had something to hold onto that told me it was ok..
It's not bad that some people can't live like this-I can't do a lot of things because I made this choice-it's a give and take thing..
I know there are people on the board who dislike me because they don't know where I stand...
I have real loyalties. I try not to give in to disliking people-some people are a real challenge-but we're all just flesh and blood and a lot of times the ugliest are merely tortured souls acting out their greif and bitterness...
I'm out of my depth sometimes-sometimes I have to say "That's more than I can handle" but I'm happy with my vows...

Some people only see black and white

Others see the grey and the colors

I feel sorry for the former

I LIKE that sometimes I see only B/W but I can CHOOSE to see the grey and the colors too.

Mike, I like you. I think you are on drugs with some of your rambling and leaps of logic, but I don't have a problem with that.

But really, a thread titled Canine Courtesies should be about being polite to dogs.

No drugs,Sweetheart-and you only think it's rambling because you never heard it before.
Canine courtesies is from "Cyrano"...
