Just because
Just because…
You are not in full time employment, doesn’t mean you don’t need to eat.
You are on a diet, doesn’t mean you cannot peruse the menu.
You are alone, doesn’t mean you are lonely
It is Sunday, does not mean the sun will shine.
If the sun don’t shine, does not mean you cannot be happy.

if your dog bites you in the knee doesn’t mean it has to go to the bathroom.

“If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap.
If you want happiness for a day, go fishing.
If you want happiness for a month, get married.
If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime, help someone else.
If you want eternal happiness, know yourself.
- Chinese proverb.
You know yourself alright.

Maynard - So what is the dog telling you? I don’t speak dog!
Ramana - I think I know me, but then I have lived with myself longer than anyone else.

Just because it’s winter, doesn’t mean you can’t look forward to spring.

Grannymar, the dog is telling you that you are in its territory, so get the hell out, or get off of my foot that you are stepping on.

Nick - I am really looking forward to spring!
Maynard - Thank you for translating dog language for me!
Steph - It doesn’t mean you can’t try either!

Grannymar,
Seamus Heaney has an evocative line in his poem ‘Tate’s Avenue’ about ‘locked park Sunday Belfast’. Sunshine or not, if it was Sunday you were not to enjoy yourself
