This is my Labrador, Amigo. In terms of the breed of Labrador, he is the Shaquille O’Neal of Labs. Ask anyone that knows him (he’s on Facebook under Amigo Brown…friend him) and they will attest to this.
I love the hell outta this dog. One thing I think I enjoy most is how much he loves to chase a ball. Casey finds it annoying and thinks he’s OCD.
Amigo loves only two things in life: eating and chasing a ball. If a ball was thrown, he would probably ignore eating.
When he’s asleep next to me in the office, I swear he dreams about chasing balls…his paws start churning and he breathes fast.
I took this candid shot of him in a state of longing. He is SO close to where he wants to be. Part of him is agonizing. He knows if he could just get to the other side of that Great Glass Door Barrier, where he sees freedom and running room, he will have NO problem finding someone to throw his ball. He’s amazingly persuasive like that.
Now that I’ve set this up….you’re that dog.
You’re in Amigo’s position.
What’s your Glass Door?
Are you at the Glass Door, poised and ready for your opportunity?
Is the Door open and you won’t run through, ball between teeth, ready to chase your dream, your passion, your goal?
Better yet, what ball do you want to chase?
Where are you at with your resolutions thus far this year? What goals are on your list that you haven’t started? What’s keeping you?
Come on, Amigo, let’s go chase the ball.
