Last night my dog, an 18-pound Pug, was playing toys with a dog bigger than her.
Penny the Pug was running all over, playing toys with a dog more than three times her size. She tried her best, but lost the toy battle.
There might be a metaphor in there somewhere for life. There was zero chance of her winning that fight, but she didn't know that and still probably had fun during the toy battle.
I thought about telling her to give up. I tossed her another toy to play with, but she didn't want it.
She wanted the one the bigger dog had, the one she couldn't even reach in his mouth because she's so small.
Yes, I'm pretty sure there's a metaphor in there somewhere.
