So enough's enough

And yet again the question is raised, why a blind dog? And so we say, why not a dog who happens to be blind? She is a dog with a disability not a disability who happens to be a dog. She can do everything a quote "normal" dog can do (except jump on the bed because she has no idea how tall it is and is that so bad?) and is more loving and caring than most other dogs i know. And trust me, thats quite a few dogs I know. Would you love a child any less if he or she were blind? "No, sorry we don't want that one, she can't see. We'll wait another 9 mos to have a kid that can see." No of course you wouldn't say that! (Or shouldn't-- yes i am "shoulding" right now)

Sigh... there are more important things in life than being perfectly "normal." and i know most of you reading this are on my side. But some people's kids... honestly. It just doesn't make a difference to us. She was a stray and living in a shelter for a year and needed a loving home. Her little face and shining personality stole my heart the instant I found out about her. She has been a complete angel... now of course, the snoring and occasional piddles on the tile come free of charge. But c'mon, she's a Boston, what else would you expect?

So that's my rant... and its not just about little dogs that can't see. Its about people being more accepting of animals and more importantly, people no matter what they look or act like. Everyone needs to be loved period. God didn't come to save the "normal." He came to save everyone, because everyone has made mistakes. And here's a newsflash... no one's normal!!! So that's the deal. "...Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these (Mark 12:31)" So that's it. Be kind to people, period. End of rant.... for now : )
