I have been telling myself that i will stop and get a photo of this tree for the last four years. It's only a few minutes from home and on a road i used to have to take to go to Melbourne before the ring road opened.
I went back recently and took this selfie. Light is from the moon and my iphone.
I saw this lone dog wandering around Venice. I wonder do homeless animals yearn for the love of a human that other animals receive?
Do animals have self esteem and know what it feels like to be unloved?
Perhaps for some it is better to have never experienced the emotional connection with people only to at some point have it taken away.
I always remember seeing a dog getting dumped in the city of Cork in Ireland. A car simply pulled up on the side of the road and the dog was put out then the car drove away.
The dog didn’t understand as it tried to chase it’s owners until it could no longer do so. I wondered what went through the mind of that dog that night, the confusion and fear. When would it realize it was simply no longer wanted.
I still remember what it felt like watching that dog desperately running after the car motivated by a loyalty and a deep love for it’s owners that would never be reciprocated.
