Let it go…

According to the crazy calendar, today is Let It Go day.  I’m assuming it is a day to let small problems go – and to let bygones be bygones.  Humans DO tend to carry around “stuff” that they shouldn’t – they really need to be more like us canines.

Now that’s NOT to say that we dogs don’t SOMETIMES carry a grudge – or act a bit cranky.  Some dogs ignore their human if the human was away on a trip – and the dog didn’t get to go.  Usually we may be cranky for a day or so – but we then forget about it – and we basically let it go.  We may also be cranky if another dog gets an extra treat and we don’t – that sometimes happens here.  We also may be cranky if one dog gets a longer walk.  But within minutes, we let it go.  And honestly, we don’t think about it again.  We don’t think “Hey last week HE got a longer walk.”  And it’s NOT like we don’t remember things – we dogs have GREAT memories.  If we found a treat in a certain area- we’ll go back to look there later.  We DO remember.  We just choose NOT to hold onto “stuff.” Other than our bones…

But humans – well they have a hard time “letting go.”  But really, if they DID, they would probably have fewer health problems – fewer headaches and stomach aches.  Bottom line, they just need to be a LOT more like us dogs.  Wag more.  Bark less. Roll in the freshly mowed grass.  Play ball…

So let it go today.  And have a good one!
