My Hansie, bubble wrap and the art of happy living


 

I buy toys for Hansie from online stores. I usually avoid outdoor toys. He doesn’t prefer ball type toys. He is small, and most of them are too big for his mouth. He loves squeaky toys and never seems to feel afraid of those toys, which is not the case with many dogs. He likes rope toys too, but I mostly avoid them as they are not easy to clean. I run through a checklist before I buy a toy for him. 1. Indoor/Outdoor 2. Size 3. Materials used 4. Non-toxic 5. Washable.

Hansie gets another set of things to play. The soft drink plastic bottle is one of his favourites. The small neck part of the bottle makes it easy for him to grab and run. The next one is the empty sweet boxes. He will tear them into pieces. The sounds he makes and his expressions are sure to make me laugh, every time! He gets very excited when he finds a bubble wrap. I wonder how he learnt to do that. He presses the bubbles with his teeth and brings the popping sound.

Grab, drag, bark, run, jump and be joyful is what Hansie is doing with these toys, doesn’t matter which toy it is!

Stop & Listen

Source: Email forward A man sat at a metro station in Washington DC and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, it was calculated that thousand of people went through the station, most of them on their way to work. Three minutes went by and a middle aged man noticed there was musician playing. He slowed his pace and stopped for a few seconds and then hurried up to meet his schedule. A minute later, the violinist received his first dollar tip: a woman threw the money in the till and without stopping continued to walk. A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him, but the man looked at his watch and started to walk again. Clearly he was late for work. The one who paid the most attention was a 3 year old boy. His mother tagged him along, hurried but the kid stopped to look at the violinist. Finally the mother pushed hard and the child continued to walk tur...
