Dear God - I thank you for my best friend, Freckles, whose steadfast presence in my life for 12 1/2 years has been a gift of joy. I am steadfast for her, too, especially now that she is blind. (But no less full of life!) Bless our life together as doggie and human being, as a sign of your steadfastness, too, for us in joy. Amen
"Since patience or tolerance comes from a certain ability to remain firm and steadfast, to not be overwhelmed by the adverse situations or conditions that one faces, one should not see tolerance or patience as a sign of weakness, but rather as a sign of strength coming from a deep ability to remain steadfast and firm."
—The Dalai Lama
