As for me, I shared none of their canine lust. But why, they pleaded. “Because I dont hav

50、e time to take care of a dog. ” But well do it. “Really? Youre going to walk the dog? Feed the dog? Bathe the dog? ” Yes, yes, and yes. “I dont believe you. ” We will. We promise. They didnt. From day two (everyone wanted to walk the cute puppy that first day), neither thought to walk the dog. While

51、 I was slow to accept that I would be the one to keep track of her shots, to schedule her vet appointments, to feed and clean her, Misty knew this on day one. As she looked up at the three new humans in her life (small, medium, and large), she calculated, “The medium one is the sucker in the pack. ”

52、Quickly, she and I developed something very similar to a Vulcan mind meld (心靈融合). Shed look at me with those sad brown eyes of hers, beam her need, and then wait, trusting I would understand which, strangely, I almost always did. In no time, she became my feet as I read, and splaying across my stoma

During those six months of hospitalizations, Becky, 12 at the time, adjusted to other adults being in the house when she

55、returned from school. My work colleagues adjusted to my taking off at a moments notice for medical emergencies. Every part of my life changed; no part of my old routine remained. Save one: Misty still needed walking. At the beginning, when friends offered to take her through her paces, I declined be

56、cause I knew they had their own households to deal with. As the months went by, I began to realize that I actually wanted to walk Misty. The walk in the morning before I headed to the hospital was a quiet, peaceful time to gather my thoughts or to just be before the days medical drama unfolded. The

57、evening walk was a time to shake off the days upsets and let the worry tracks in my head go to white noise. When serious illness visits your household, its not just your daily routine and your assumptions about the future that are no longer familiar. Pretty much everyone you know acts differently. N

58、ot Misty. Take her for a walk, and she had no interest in Joes blood counts or bone marrow test results. On the street or in the park, she had only one thing on her mind: squirrels! She was so joyous that even on the worst days, she could make me smile. On a daily basis she reminded me that life goe

59、s on. After Joe died in 2009, Misty slept on his pillow. Im gratefulto a point. The truth is, after years of balking, Ive come to enjoy my walks with Misty. As I watch her chase after a squirrel, throwing her whole being into the here-and-now of an exercise that has never once ended in victory, she

60、reminds me, too, that no matter how harsh the present or unpredictable the future, theres almost always some measure of joy to be extracted from the moment. 【語(yǔ)篇概述】本文為記敘文。本文主要講述了作者在生活中遭遇磨難時(shí)在遛狗中悟出生活的哲理盡管有時(shí)生活艱難、前途難測(cè), 但人生總有希望和快樂(lè)。28.
