"When days seem so long and heartaches weigh too heavily upon us, when nothing has gone right and all of the world seems to stand against us; when the soul streams with a bitterness that cannot be soothed and one's thoughts pound relentlessly until sheer madness is prevented by an uncontrollable outburst and emotional explosion of all our senses; when all seems lost and life no longer holds meaning for us, only then do we realise the presence and miraculous power of a friendly embrace that wraps us in a circle of unconditional love. I love my dog. She is always there for me whatever her day has brought." William Forde: June 18th, 2013.
