Hey guys, sorry I have not written in a while. I have been having my own experience in real life as apposed to in the social spotlight. I have been leading about dogs and am thinking the more I think about it my place is to work with dogs and to learn more about our relationships with them. One thing I have learnt from dogs perhaps through a friends dog aswell as my own experience. That is that dogs don’t let their past affect their future with the right guidance. I would like personally to learn more about helping people to have better relationships with their dogs so that both can enjoy a better life.
I don’t think a dog forgets that they were badly treated. I think they remember and move on from it even though it’s part of their life.
I know people expect me to move on from my cancer journey, and some may think it’s bizarre that it’s still affecting me to this day. Well like a dog, I can’t forget it, and find it hard to move on as the pain does not help me to forget all the treatment, procedures, and chemicals that I have had put into my body. Chronic pain is a part of my life and while I hoped it would disappear. It hasn’t. So guess what. I have to move on. I need to allow the past to help me rather than hinder me. To allow my past to shape me but not control me.
In the future I would dearly love to be able to stand in front of people and encourage them that they can overcome the situations that they have found themselves in, Be it disease, abuse, or a victim of another situation. Most people I guess use God, but one thing I detest are people that just pray and then don’t follow it up with action. It’s like someone sending an email and not following it up with a phone call. “I have sent an email, I am just waiting for a reply” is Not taking control of your destiny.
If you apply for a job, why just send a C.V. Why would you not follow it up with a phone call to the recipient. I tell you now, you will be a stand out candidate for the position as you will have spoken to your employer. It’s about taking some kind of control over your own destiny. Following your words with action.
TAKE CONTROL
In my opinion the biggest problem with dogs behaviour is humans ability to react and know what to do, and what not to do. My dogs are not allowed to jump up at people when they enter our house, and incidentally they are not allowed in our house without wiping their feet. They don’t get fed unless they sit. Oh they also bow and pray before they eat to. They are not allowed on the sofa unless there is a cover on it and they are invited. I choose that our dogs will be pub dogs, dogs we can take to visit others.
Is it wrong that we expect our dogs to have standards, that we don’t want children to be knocked down due to their bad behaviour. No of course not, their has to be boundaries, or children will get hurt. People will get hurt, and for sure we don’t want that.
My point is that, I am finding it hard to move on from my cancer. But now the time, although I will for sure not stop allowing my experience to shape my future. But I need to stop letting it dominate my life, and start allowing it to shape my future. My future is without cancer, and there are for sure people that have helped me without even knowing it. Babies die, children and young people have their lives taken. For sure those facts make me totally grateful to be in my 50th year. A mile stone that needs to be celebrated rather than anticipating another relapse. You can achieve what ever you choose to do, myself personally I have found it difficult to live with Pain rather than moving on from having Pain. Rather to get to the point of acceptance like in my last blog. I know we are all a work in progress and I for sure want to progress, rather than not moving on. So thank you all of you that are friends on here, people that have helped me along the way.

Many many more.
But now the time for me to move on and maybe my blog will take a different turn, but fonzandcancer will always be a blog and maybe even a book one day. Time to move on but learn from my past.
Bless you all, and thank you for reading. It means the world.

Hi Mark! Is that your dog in the picture? (I have a special reason for asking.)

She was the main character in a dream I had recently. I don’t remember the details except that we were having a most serious conversation and I was supposed to be connecting with you soon. It will be most interesting to see how this unfolds! From my HEART to your HEART in Love, Betty.

I apologize for not being more clear! I had a dream the other morning in which this big yellow dog was communicating with me. It was a very serious conversation about her owner meeting up with me and that this connection was important. (She was right up in my face, like a closeup video, to be sure she had my attention.) It woke me up, otherwise I probably wouldn’t have remembered it. Then, you liked my post on my Blog, I clicked on yours to check it out and there was the picture of this dog. I immediately KNEW it was the dog in my dream and had this undeniable urge to let you know about it. I don’t have any further information at this time. I guess the ball is in your court, depending on how you feel about all this. 💞

You will learn much from dogs. You might also consider interacting with horses. ☺

It’s a fantastic thought. Despite being fond of dogs and having loved many in my life hitherto, I had never come across this thought that they forget that they were ill-treated and move on in life. This is a lesson that we, the human-beings, should always bear in mind and move on in the life as well as with the life. Hearty thanks to you for sharing and best wishes for your own life.
