And it’s where I find new ideas. Some days I am so swept up in mentally writing new scenes and plot lines that I nearly trip over my feet. Luckily my two dogs keep me grounded in reality by occasionally lunging for a squirrel or sniffing for a deer and snapping me out of my thoughts. Over a year ago I was in a major writing standstill but something as simple as noticing an old Chevy pickup truck on my evening walk gave me the breakthrough I needed. Yet another reminder of how dogs keep me sane and how a few minutes of serenity and quiet time outdoors is essential for my mental health.
What sweet looking pups. Dogs are amazing and have the ability to help us more than we probably even realize. : )
