This Christmas, Heel The Love.

I have to watch Marley & Me. How could I not? There's also one of my fave actresses, Jennifer Aniston. :)

Love the teaser! Watching Marley the pup run freely along the coast is such a liberating and heartwarming feeling.

Good Night, Sweetheart.

Oh man! This is so cute. This California man actually sings a lullaby to his boxer pups and they fall asleep!

Live and let live.

I wonder, and I really do. Is it so difficult to live and let live? As we improve as a society, are we receding as human beings?



I was at a particular coffeeshop with PW yesterday when we saw a black mutt puppy (about the size of a 8 mths old retriever puppy) with a collar resting near a table. Next to that table was a table occupied by a woman her her young daughter.

I overheard the woman telling the cleaner auntie to remove the puppy. The auntie wasn't sure what to do. Then the woman summoned the cleaner uncle and repeated herself. I told the woman the puppy had a collar and may belonged to someone (as in to a legitimate owner or to someone kind who has been caregiving for it). She said the puppy wasn't with any owner as far as she had observed. I spoke to the cleaner duo and I'm glad they agreed with me that since the puppy wasn't bothering anyone, we should just leave it alone. The puppy looked absolutely harmless and meek. It may perhaps be waiting for his caregiver or seeking some company. I have to say the puppy's sad look broke my heart. I wish I could bring it home.

I was furious with that woman. What exactly is her problem? If she thinks the presence of a homeless little dog spoils her appetite, then perhaps she should consider dining in a private establishment such as a restaurant instead. What lesson is she teaching her daughter? The lesson of "How to be unkind"? I swear I would make sure she goes to the police station if she kicked the puppy under my nose. I lingered around a little to make sure the puppy was ok before leaving with a heavy heart.

I hope the puppy remains safe and sound and be looked after by someone kind.
