I was just reading an article about the recent trend of creating "designer" or "hybrid" dogs. These are canines bred from two different "purebred" parents, such as Cockapoos - or Cockerpoos - (American Cocker Spaniel and Poodle mix) and Labradoodles (Labrador Retriever and Standard or Miniature Poodle mix). A popular one is the Puggle which is a mix between a Pug and a Beagle.
I've heard it said that dogs and their human owners begin to look alike after awhile. That reminds me of a scene in 101 Dalmatians when Pongo is watching dogs and humans pass by his apartment window. The animators did indeed make the humans resemble their canine friends. It made me want to go look in the mirror and see which of my dogs I looked like! J
Just for fun, if you were to categorize yourself in "doggie terms" would you classify yourself as a purebred, designer, or mixed breed? How do you feel about that?
Let me share with you that regardless of how you classified yourself, and regardless of how you got to where you are right now, your future only depends on what you are doing today. In other words, your future is NOT dependent on your past, but on the attitude and actions you are living by today -- this very moment.
Don't limit yourself to looking like your past. Make the necessary adjustments today so you will have the future you desire! Each day you can make small steps toward a bright future.
And no matter what happens, be aware that your life-- your "style" -- is valuable and needed in this world! Don't be afraid to be you...uniquely and wonderfully crafted!
You are worth the effort to live a positive life...even if your past is less than ideal, you can still create the future you deserve.
Hang in there as you become the best you can!!!
