Get a dog. They're called man's best friend for a reason. :) When I'm feeling like you are now, I look over to my little buddy and think, "What would you do without me?" But what I should really be thinking is, "What would I do without you?" Words cannot express the amount of joy that my dog brings to my life. I don't know if I would be here right now if it wasn't for him. When I don't feel like getting out of bed, he's always there to wake me up and give me a reason to get moving. I cherish every moment.

Here is a video I recorded the other week of one of our walks. We've walked along this path at least a thousand times. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iH4TsjD97cU

Get a dog. Give it all the love you have. You will receive the same, unconditionally. Go do all kinds of things that your little friend enjoys. Go for long walks as often as you can, morning and night, at least. Your friend's excitement and joy over the smallest things will rub off on you too. And you'll come to realize that, to your dog, you are literally everything. It really puts things into perspective. There really isn't much more to life than that, and I think there's a certain beauty to it.
