Welcome To A dogs World: Walks with Gracie

Real Happiness

My real happiness is my life with my dog.Gracie has been my best friend,confidant,protector and mood enhancer for the last 5+years.There was a life of "before"Gracie that was filled with unhappiness,sadness and such deep and dark depression that my world was literally,BLACK.With Gracie being apart of my life I have found the person I am and have kept my demons in check.For those of us who suffer from Depression,a dog can be the bridge back to a life of color and joy.It is a process,one I am learning every day.Nothing worth having comes easy.You must work for it.

Walks with Gracie

One of the best parts of my day is at 5am when I take Gracie out for her morning walk.I love the darkness just before the sun comes up,it's quiet,so peaceful.It's almost as if you are the only one on earth,just for that 45 minutes.I was never a morning person,but as I've gotten older,mornings have become more attractive to me.I guess because it's the only time of day that it is really quiet and still.I can think,plan my day,wake up slowly unrushed.I do not like being rushed.I enjoy the time spent just walking in the cool dawn air with my girl Gracie.
