A dog makes every difference in how and where we travel. That is why, my brother, I was gladdened to learn you have a dog who dotes upon your guidance.
How every form of life on earth is fragile and inter-dependent is obvious while we walk as friends together.
You and I, brother, were lonely walkers, infant apes descended from a shadowy tree, left to crawl untutored toward the sunlight so needed to learn hard lessons, well and swiftly.
We tottered finally upright ventured out from under shade so that our human noses might lead where knowledge is often hiding, on highest branches
learned also to steer by star-shine through the tree limbs as close to the spring as possible for all of us come at last to the spring to water and refresh ourselves together.
