LOVE WRAPPED IN FUR
“Dogs do speak, but only to those who know how to listen.” Orhan Pamuk
There is a quiet, profound wisdom in the gentle wag of a tail, the soft nuzzle against your hand, or the unwavering eyes staring up at you, brimming with love and understanding. Dogs, those divine companions on our life journey, have a language that transcends words. They are messengers, speaking through silence, teaching through presence, and offering lessons to those willing to listen with their hearts. I watched a documentary about dogs tonight. These dogs were being trained to be service dogs helping the handicapped. The dogs are put through serious training and need to be able to perform certain tasks that will enable them to help the person they will be assigned to. At the end of the training, the dogs were paired up with a person. I found myself very emotional over the dogs who did not get chosen to be service dogs for various reasons. It was a triggered response in me of feeling left out. The dogs, however, had a beautiful experience awaiting them as some went to their foster family for adoption, others were used for search-and-rescue dogs, and some simply made great pets. No dog was left out.
Dear Angels, dogs embody unconditional love in its purest form. No judgment, no expectations—just boundless affection and unwavering loyalty. There is no room for resentment in their spirit, no tally of how much time you were away. They remind us that love is not about conditions or circumstances; it is about being present in the moment. When we open ourselves to this truth, we hear the voice of a dog whispering to us, “Love more. Love now. Love without reservation.” Dogs speak with their actions, and when we pay attention, their silent language becomes a profound lesson in opening our hearts.
Dear Ones, the animals in your life love you unconditionally whether you’re at your best or struggling through your worst days, their love never falters. They don’t judge, hold grudges, or ask you to change. A wagging tail, a purring snuggle, or even the patient gaze of a loyal companion reminds you that true love is simple, constant, and pure. Imagine if you could love one another the same way — without conditions, expectations, or judgment. The whole world would change. Just as animals trust with their whole hearts, you can choose to see the divine spark within each other and embrace the beauty of your shared journey. We invite you to learn from them. Be the embodiment of unconditional love, offering kindness, compassion, and acceptance freely. A little more understanding, a little more warmth, and just like your angels in fur, you can become a source of healing for one another. Love as they do — openly, deeply, and without conditions. That is the greatest gift you can give to this world. As the psalmist said, “How many are your works, Lord! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures.”
Dear Angels, thank you. I love you. Namaste y’all.
Today, I promise to see others in my life through the eyes of unconditional love.
