I once heard a woman who had lost her dog say that she felt as though a color were suddenly missing from her world: the dog had introduced to her field of vision some previously unavailable hue and without a dog, that color was gone.

She's exposed. — Rush Limbaugh

It's really more about - yes, love, in its widest usage. — Deb Caletti

Thought subsides when you pet your dog or you have a purring cat on your chest. Even just watching an animal can take you out of your mind.

Millions of people who otherwise would be completely lost in the conceptual reality of their mind are kept sane by living with an animal. — Eckhart Tolle

Regain your humanity. Lower your gaze. — Nouman Ali Khan

The principle of self-cultivation consists in nothing but trying to look for the lost heart. — Mencius

It's true. somewhere inside us we are all the ages we have ever been. We're the 3 year old who got bit by the dog. We're the 6 year old our mother lost track of at the mall. We're the 10 year old who get tickled till we wet our pants. We're the 13 year old shy kid with zits. We're the 16 year old no one asked to the prom, and so on. We walk around in the bodies of adults until someone presses the right button and summons up one of those kids. — Jonathan Tropper

Since i couldn't remember the "real" first time i'd lost my virginity, this would have become my de facto first time.
