One thing that is sure to make me giggle is watching people carry around a bag of dog poo. This happens often in my neighborhood. A dog owner walks their dog and after the dog dumps they pick up the mess. The owner is left carrying a bag of poo while the dog walks happily along.
When life hits us hard it helps to dump our issues on other people. It helps to tell someone about our fears, worries, sins, and regrets. It helps us to lighten our burden load. I think it’s healthy to dump our problems from time to time. We need other people to listen to us, pray for us, and be there when we are broken.
The problem is that when we dump our problems on someone else they are left carrying our crap. I assume it’s easy to pick up dog poo because the dog owner has been shown so much love by the dog. It becomes easier to handle when someone dumps their problems on you if they have shown you love. Make sure that you love, support, and bring something positive to the people you dump on. Your dump may stink but it will be easier for them to carry if you’ve brought love to their life.
So, to sum up, are you saying that when we listen to someone, i.e., take their crap, we are doing our "duty"? … Did you get the play on words here? Come on, this is gold baby. Gold.
Very well said Rob and makes me feel like to I need to go and give some friends some love!
i think we all need someone we can dump with. both the good the bad and the ugly. not a pity party mind you but others to walk through life with, loving and dumping…lol.
If aliens exist and they're watching us, they have to assume that the dog controls the earth. The leash looks as if the dog is dragging along a human to pick up it's waste. What dominate being picks up another beings waste? That's my question.
What that has nothing to do with your post. Oh, good post.
It's also helpful if you bring your own "doggy poo" bag
