Headlights pointed at the dawn.

I'm a 24 25 year old student and this blog is about my adventures as I go back to college and do my best to love each day.

The Philosophy of Phoebe



Phoebe is my 7 year old cockapoo puppy, one of my very best friends and companions. Of all the dogs I have ever met she is the sweetest and happiest I've ever known. Yes, I am a bit biased there, but even strangers talk about how sweet and pretty she is. David and I call her our little princess. I wish I could be more like her sometimes, since I get stressed out so easily over a lot of things. So I made this list of Phoebe's Philosophy teachings - the things I've learned from her. She's a wise little pup!


Philosophy of Phoebe


Never walk when you can run, never run when you can skip.

You're never too old to play with your favorite toys

Take pride in your appearance (always wear your best bandanas in public or when company comes over!)

Enjoy taking walks around the neighborhood

Naps are perfectly acceptable activities for an afternoon

Be kind to children but be firm in your expectations for them

The best thing in the world is snuggling on the couch with someone you love.

Always make time to sniff the dirt, the grass, the flowers...

Everything is fun and exciting, if you let it be!

Love each day.

Its hard to believe Phoebe is 7 already! I remember when you got her at the schooling show. And Phoebe is a wise doggy.
