A Soulful Journey

In Scotland, there is a legend that when Greyfriars Bobby died his dog remained so devoted and faithful to him that he stayed at his graveside for 14 years.   There is still a statute that can be seen today recalling his devotion.  It stands in Edinburgh. Animals are true companions.   They are steadfast, predictable, and ever-loving.

" It is forbidden for a man to taste anything until he has first fed his animals." - Talmud, gittin 62 The needy always take precedence over those that can take care of themselves. They are dependent upon others to nourish them. They wait for someone to come with food. Like children, their expectant eyes wait for their mother to come along and feed them. What do they need? A friend? A meal? A good word? Some attention? The only reason we have anything is so that we can share it.
