If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,
If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,
If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it,
If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time,

If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,
If you can conquer tension without medical help,
If you can relax without alcohol,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs

Then you are probably the family dog.
So handle every situation like a dog.
If you can't eat it or play with it, just pee on it and move on...
~peace~

Yup! I must be like the family dog, except for the peeing part...lol. Learned a lot from my Welshie and Golden retriever.
