Grok, my dogs think you're missing out on the liver!
I joke with my mom (and myself) that I make hearty treats for the boys and really should try them out. To date, mom is not interested. (me neither!)

Quite profound and a true representation of me, often! I know that I'm blessed with children, family, pets, home, friends, work, health. Still, the weight of sadness (feelings) can and does exist in the background and from time to time, on the forefront.
Knowledge versus feelings. Or is it knowledge AND feelings? They do coexist. Knowing to let knowledge lead. Feeling the weight and getting sucked back in...until knowledge brings me back. Deliberate thoughts to bring me back in those weaker moments.
