What do I mean by family part's well exactly that, you have your wife, children and our pets, they are also part of the family. Whatever pets you have from insects, snakes,dogs and cats and animals to the extreme like lions or tiger's, they are all part of the family. You watch them grow up, you feed them and sometimes even have to take them to the vets, so in a way they are like your children they have needs, like children need to be potty trained, dog's or cats also need to be trained to go to the toilet and also train them the difference between right and wrong. In my family's case we did have one Maltese but while I was away the family bought another so now we have two bundles of white fur balls around the house. Our first dog has been with us for almost fourteen years and the other a puppy, they are real parts of the family. They have their times to eat, play, go out to the toilet and sleep, they are there when you get up and when you go to bed, they show you love in their own particular way, they want to play and they want to eat, just like our real children and worst of all they get old, our eldest is now almost totally blind but she's still with us but can't see a thing and relys on her sense of smell and her memory of where everything is in the house, that is the main reason the family bought the second puppy so that if in the (I hope) distant future the eldest might die then maybe just maybe it won't be so hard on everyone when she dies which we all know that it will happen one day. As I am home all the time because I'm retired I can't even imagine how it will be with only the pup around and to be quite honest I don't even want to think about it. So you see pet's are parts of the family and will always be even though one day you may lose them so enjoy your time with them and try to keep them happy so that they can enjoy their life with your family. Whether they live indoors like ours or outdoors make their lives as enjoyable as possible, give them love as they do to you, look after them and don't be like some people buy a puppy for Christmas and then after a while let it wonder out on the streets hoping that it won't come back because of the fact that perhaps they cost to much, think about what a pet really means and whatever you do don't be cruel, if you want a pet then really want a pet and everything that goes with their lives, the ups and downs and the financial cost be prepared to make them a family member and then you will really be a pet owner. Does this ring true with you I hope so, because that's why I'm writing about it to make new owners aware of what having a pet means.
Luck, do you believe in it, like finding a four leaf clover, a bird shiting on you, is that going to bring you luck or do you just make your own luck? Some people have so called luck by winning the lottery, winning on online gambling or winning on the stock market, are these all attributed to luck, good question but if you think about it everything that you bet on is controlled by a computer or little balls spinning around in a plastic globe, you win, is that really luck? How do you define what luck really is, I'm not sure but I think you make your own luck. For instance I made my own luck by going to a cafe and meeting my wife who worked there, I made my own luck during the war in Croatia by doing what I had been taught and stayed alive, my wife and I were lucky enough to have three children when there are other married people who can't have children, are those examples of luck or destiny? In a way you could say that it was my destiny to get married not just luck, which is it ...
