Seriously folks? Really? Do we STILL not "get it"??? Rescue is about DOGS.. it's not about people, thank you's, pats on the back, name calling, egos, who's top banana.. .it's about the D-O-G-S!!!! Anything more than that is BS... I still have no idea what is going on in this world.. all I know is everyone is on edge, snippy, argumentative, etc... even in my own family.
Life is TOO short to be continuing this way... focus on what is important.. if you want to be involved in rescue.. then get your rewards from the look in the eyes of the dogs you help.. whether by fostering, donating time, money, transporting, prayers.. in whatever way you are able to help out. Anyone involved in rescue is VERY grateful for the volunteers and supporters they have.. but everyone also has their own lives, their own jobs, their own family drama on top of rescue.. so let's give each other a little break - a little space.. and a little consideration.
And maybe.. just maybe - keep "business" disagreements OFF social networks... all that does is cause more problems for everyone... even those not involved directly. You have NO idea who is reading and making assumptions about what you are saying.
And take it from me... those that call you friend - may not necessarily BE a friend. A friend will stand by you through thick and thin.. disagreements, arguments, etc.. but in the end.. they support you.. because they are a friend.. not PERFECT by any means.. but caring. We ALL make mistakes.. I just wish that we were all capable of admitting when we are wrong and big enough to say "I'm sorry" and MEAN it... no lip service.. nothing more than a genuine "sorry"... "forgive me and I'll try to do better" but also understand that my life may not be going so well right now either.. and I could use a little understanding myself.
Put your own names in where they are applicable.
I remain as always.. in a quandary as to why we are fighting so much amongst ourselves.
