I have had my Vergel for what seems like an eternity. He has not been just "man's best friend" but my best friend. What is it about our pets that make them love us unconditionally? If we love them, scold them, or praise them, no matter what they always lead with the emotion of love. Love is what comes first in their heart, it is what comes naturally. The love they contain in their heart is unmeasurable. It is like our preacher said a while back, we (man) are their "god" and they are the servant. It is funny how they are always thirsting for more, love that is. Shouldn't we approach all in life with the same love? After all, dog is "God" spelled backward. Maybe we should all learn a valuable lesson from the relationship we have with our pets or maybe it is the relationship they have with us...... I believe it is this; we should all love one another, regardless of any past indiscretions and only see the good and love that one has to share.
Vergel loved, although maybe the word should technically be "lovingly tolerated" his little brother.
Vergel loved a good romp in the dirt on a hot summer day.
Vergel loved to lie around the house on the cool hardwood floors.
Vergel loved to go to the store and was always my protector and companion on those long winter nights, working late at Elizabelles.
Vergel loved a freshly fallen snow... that is when he saw it for the first time in North Carolina.
Vergel loved Christmas at Mimi's house, because he knew with all the commotion and distractions he could somehow swipe a quick bite to eat!
My Vergel loved life and loved our family. Because our pets remind us of unconditional love, when they are gone it hurts, and our heart breaks. That little piece of love is missing but never forgotten.
