  • A young child bends over to make eye contact with a puppy.
    What it means to have a pet is to love someone who speaks a language you do not. A dog will bow and prance, a cat will purr and blink. A guinea pig will giggle and squeak. A long time ago a friend of mine had a dog with soft ears, and considered herself the pup’s guardian....

  • Unitarian Universalist Association Chalice
