Country Roads: Dogs of All Sorts
Christmas Day only hours away; year’s end in its last gasp – a mixture of joy and pain which is life, is it not? When we look around us, lucky us, we see the faces of family and friends, relatively safe, hopefully well fed and well loved. We’ve got to feel gratitude. So many others in the world are neither safe nor fed and if the world loves them, it certainly isn’t obvious. We thoughtful and caring folk, from the safety of our warm homes and full cupboards may give monthly to Doctors Without Borders, providing a bandage here and there to a victim who has just been blown apart. It’s on the nightly news, nagging at our conscience and disturbing an otherwise comfortable evening by the fire.
