Lesson learned from my friend’s dog

I’m visiting my friend Richard for a few days. I arrived late Friday night, and his dog Nikki was very excited to see me. She jumped up and licked me, tag wagging fiercely.

This morning, I got the same treatment, and commented to Richard that Nikki was still excited to see me. Richard said that she is excited every morning.

Upon reflection, I realized that we should all be excited to see each new day, since none of us knows how many new days we will have.
