Gist: The loving bond between human beings and their pets.

Inspiration:

I wake up to pray, read, meditate and write each morning around 4:45 am.  The house is quiet, and I have peace. One particular morning, I was visiting my brother, who lives in Florida.  His cat and dog insisted on getting my attention while I was trying to write. The dog sat in my lap, and the cat strew himself across my journal.  I was petting each one and was missing my own dog. This got me to thinking about how much we love our pets. Perhaps, more importantly, how much they love us.  They give us enough love to last a lifetime, and the song’s origins start there.
