Claim Your Calm (Or lose Your Sanity)

posted by Francis Ho

In the midst of the noise of life; Buddy is a charming and calming presence in my life.
I managed this grab shot of his steady gaze while the rest of his body is swaying along with his wagging tail!

I had a particularly busy and pressurizing day at work exacerbated by a deadline and a panicky stressed out superior whose sanity peace is immediately shattered by his domineering superior. Some people sadly allow their fearful lives to be ruled by others. Perhaps they really lack consciousness do not know any better. *sigh*

Calm up in the skies and chaos here on earth. When will we ever learn?

Luckily all these hassles are immediately banished the instance I got home - calmed by the beautiful blue skies and soothed by the serenity and attention in Buddy's loving eyes. Trusting that your day had been productive and calm.

Dogs (and pets in general) have very beneficial calming effect. They also offer "visibility" in the psychological sense of feeling recognized by another sentient being. Hospitals and retirement homes have dogs visit their patients. My father lived the last few years of his life in a care home for alzheimer patients. They had a resident black lab that everyone, including Dad, loved.

Just petting your dog can lower your blood pressure.

Lucky are we who have such a companion in our home. Good boy, Buddy.

great that all is well and tail is still wagging..

it is always a different joy from being a stressup employee and a stressup employer.

Perhaps, a balance is always needed to make everything just right.

panda - Yes those who have pets knows this.

Even just looking at Buddy lowers our blood pressure!

robin - Welcome back and thanks for your many comments. I do not let work affect me negatively lah!

Yes, the key is for us to find our balance (and true self).
