How much I love my dogs
You see I was recently in the beginning of summer diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome. Others around me suspected I had it. In retrospect, I was told in past by a therapist as well and about 8-9 years ago, as I read "Look me in the eyes" and discussed it with a friend, I felt I recognized myself or certainly had many similarities with the author, growing up and as an adult. Anyhow, I must say, it was not easy to accept it. My dogs though are a big reason I feel okay. They never judged me, they seem to reciprocate this "unconditional" love we feel for each other, them and I. As I am writing this, both are right next to me on the bed. I comprehend that having Asperger's explains how much I care about animals though I wish to clarify that I comprehend others too love their dogs or pets as much as I do and don't necessarily have Asperger's. I even found out that my favorite actress, Audrey Hepburn had 3 jack russell terriers. In my opinion, anyone that has a pet and shares this "beautiful" relationship with them, can relate. After all, "dog is man's best friend" says it all.
