Dog’s life

When taking a dog for a drive, there is no way for the dog to comprehend that you have control of the vehicle. There is no way he can realize that you turning the wheel or pushing a pedal makes the car move. He must think that both of you walk out to this adventure box, you have your seat, he has his, and you wisk off to a mystery location – sometimes parks, sometimes the vet; You just roll the dice and go on adventures together.

The mind could make you dance

Now if you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired. When you were younger the mind could make you dance all night, and the body was never tired… You’ve always got to make the mind take over and keep going.
