A Sunny Stroll with a Best Friend on Shadow Shot Sunday

Your Best Friend

by Senator George Vest

"The one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is the dog.
A man's dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold ground, where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his master's side.
He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer; he will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounter with the roughness of the world.
He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince. When all other friends desert, he remains. When riches take wings and reputation falls to pieces, he is as constant in his love as the sun in its journey thru the heavens."

  5. Great quote! And so true! Love the black and white effect with the shadow. No shadow strolls here today, the sun has disappeared. But that's OK, we'll still take the walk.
