ENTRIES FOR TUESDAY NOVEMBER 22
Today, after a 72 hour shift at the fire station, a woman ran up to me at the grocery store and gave me a hug. When I tensed up, she realized I didn’t recognize her. She let go with tears of joy in her eyes and the most sincere smile and said, “On 9-11-2001, you carried me out of the World Trade Center.”
LOVE CONQUERS PAIN
Today, after I watched my dog get run over by a car, I sat on the side of the road holding him and crying. And just before he died, he licked the tears off my face.
Today while taking down these quotes from the net, my Beagle dog got between my legs, looked up at me until I looked down at her, until she laid down on her mat beside me. I thought she was scared because of an upcoming storm. There was no storm. I doubted unquestioned love. She was thanking me for taking her for a walk. And I was looking back thanking her for being my dog. (8-21-2016, Tim Tam)

LOOKING BACK
Today, as my father, three brothers, and two sisters stood around my mother’s hospital bed, my mother uttered her last coherent words before she died. She simply said, “I feel so loved right now. We should have gotten together like this more often. ”
