Consequences

I have mentioned how nice it would be to live life as a dog-carefree, in the moment, going for whatever you want, when you want it...

but it's important to remember that for every action, there is a consequence (even for dogs).

Yes, Harley had a grand old time shredding this ball, as well as pulling out and tossing aside it's cottony guts...

Notice the cotton piece dangling from his mouth as he pauses to contemplate what he had just done....

And then realization sets in and Harley must come to terms with the consequence of his action.

Does that mean we should always play it safe in an effort to not destroy our favorite ball (think metaphor people...)? Absolutely not. Most worthy things in life involve a little bit of risk to obtain them. Go for it full force, but remember, there's a fragility of life, and if you push too hard, you may end up gazing around forlornly with nothing but a cotton puff hanging from your lip.
