However, I do think about if I would have kept the dog or just picking her up from my parent's place anytime. As you stated we make adjustments to our lives when they change and I probably should have given her more time to truly grow on me. One thing that I have learned from pets in general is that they are simple creatures. They love affection and live in the moment every single second of their lives. That is something that I try to make possible in my life! Ryan,

I just spent a month without my lab (left him him w/ family) and now that he is back in my life I am overwhelmed once more. I will never let him go. He is too important to my life at this point, but if I had to go back to that fateful day that I picked him up at the breeder, I wonder if I would make the same decision. I'd like to think that I would. Because I think that no matter how we try to prepare ourselves for responsibility, we never truly comprehend how it will change our lives until we step into the role. It's a good metaphor for anything in life I think. Even with Brazen Careerist, I'm never truly prepared for the new responsibilities that come my way, but you have to learn to roll with the punches. If my dog (Charlie) has taught me anything, it's to roll with the punches. As much as we try to prepare for new responsibility in our lives, it's never enough. You just need to learn to adapt quickly and keep moving forward. And sometimes that means making sacrifices in the process. Oke,
