Good days, Bad days...

Some days are just great here! There are so many exciting things going on, and we are truly honoured to be included in some of them.

Some days are not as good.
On Monday, we saw a dog that had just been hit by a car. It was a gorgeous, big, black cross-breed with an unusual blonde colouring on it's face and ears, paws and tail.
About a km down the road we saw another dog that looked almost identical, trotting down the road...looking lost.
On our way home that night, we looked where the dog had been hit, and there was the other one, lying right beside it!
Every day this week, we have gone by this scene, and the dog is still there. Today is Friday, and the dog is still there, waiting loyally beside his dead friend.
It is such a sad sight, and brings us such feelings of despair, wondering how long this poor fella is going to wait for his buddy to get up.
It is strange to be inspired by such a sad event, but it is a reminder for us to dig in our heels and work hard at what we are trying to accomplish here.
Until next week,
Elena
