“I can’t believe it’s been six months since... well, you know. Well, it’s getting dark so I’m going to head out. I’m looking forward to all of the adventures that we’ll have together, and I can’t wait until the day we can see each other again. I love you, Seamus, and I always will…”

“Dogs love their friends and bite their enemies, quite unlike people, who are incapable of pure love and always have to mix love and hate.”

—Sigmund Freud
