Heart and Soul By Janet Stoefen
To touch… their living, breathing souls
To see… deeply into their soulful eyes
To know… the beauty that flows from their hearts
To feel… the outpouring of love that is offered to us with “no strings attached”
To learn… the true meaning of unconditional love
To love… life itself because they have taught us this lesson, we couldn’t have learned any other way
To believe… in the power of their gentleness, their strength
To have… compassion for all of their souls, young and old, big and little, perfect and imperfect
To enrich… our lives more than we could have ever dreamed of
And, in the end…
To believe..... in the beauty of unconditional love and life, to gain more than I could have ever imagined…
All because I rescued a greyhound…
"This is dedicated to all of the greyhounds that have touched my heart, especially the imperfect ones like Peanuts, and to my greyt sister of the heart, Nancy Jones."
