The sound stopped me in my tracks. Just as my mother’s visceral sobs on the day my brother died. However, this sound had a magnetic quality, not a stomach churning one.
I take my service dog for a walk most days, we don’t wander far from home but it’s my Baileys walk so he can sniff and investigate all things. Everyday I try to find something that makes me smile or just makes my dog happy. Sometimes joy is hard to find but this is a start on my new path of gratitude.
Music makes me stop and listen when out and about. When I get home I put on a playlist and see if I can elevate my mood and my heart. I try.

Dogs are always in the moment. Watching mine snuff around and enjoy every moment always makes me happy!
