Day 937

The Goldens are aware of our every move. Eyes follow us as we leave a room and they follow on foot to take up residence in the new room. Their devotion is humbling.

Devotion is such an interesting phenomenon. We can be devoted to so many things… some nurture our beings…some do not. Telling the difference should be quite simple, but that is not always the case.

My devotion to my family and friends (and pups) almost always fills my heart. Even when challenges present themselves, the devotion never wavers. Hopefully, for each of us, that devotion is returned without question.

When a very rare moment happens and you realize your devotion is one-sided, there is no shame in setting up a boundary to protect yourself from hurt. It is productive to set aside something (or someone) when the devotion is a one-way-street! It allows you to share that energy with someone else who welcomes that devotion.

Habits and jobs can fall under the Devotion Umbrella and cease to reward someone for pouring their devotion without fulfillment. Once again it is praiseworthy to choose a different path on life’s journey… one that fills your heart.

For me, I will look at those furry faces and know their devotion to me is returned without question with my absolute love and care for them.

Share your devoted heart to the maximum of your potential when what you have poured out gets refilled with that devotion coming right back your way!
