Day 737

We, at The Big White House, have so much respect for therapists. Their techniques often help those who need direction and support on the journey.

There are certainly times to seek professional counseling. There are also occasions when a friend or family member can be that listening ear. When issues arise, it certainly helps to clarify the problem with another viewpoint. There have been countless times when a wiser mind has helped me see other options and given me hope.

Aside from the human kind of therapy, our animals certainly provide comfort and warmth. Even though my Therapy Dogs are not able to share advice, they can certainly calm our spirits so that we may think and ponder. There have been many times when I have snuggled in with a big Golden to help me choose a course of action when the road ahead is hazy.

Hopefully most people have a choice of friends, family or professionals who can listen and guide. Life is so full of questions and "two heads are better than one"...and four Golden heads are sometimes the best option for me to calm my brain and help me move forward!

And last, but certainly not least, a hearty Thank You to Jim B. for the T-shirt!
