sometimes this is my clearest lens in life.

many a time these blurry eyes have saved me from feelings hurt or cheeks turned that way.

we can in engage in the scrappy dogfights, get scratched up and bit;

or

we can choose not to play with those silly, boorish puppies misbehaving in their pen.

we can love them, but we don’t have to get up on all fours with them.
