Dog in Mourning by Henry Bacon, 1870


I had the privilege to attend Boston College, class of 1989.  Patriots’ Day, the day of the Boston Marathon, is an event like no other.   Picture July 4th, spring break, and the Super Bowl rolled into one.  Yesterday broke my heart.  Boston will recover, but that beautiful, heady, quintessentially New England civic celebration is now history.

    I imagine what an evil species we are and that we should be squashed out of existence from the universe..and then I glance to the right and see these beautiful dog portraits and imagine what amazing creatures we are,and the love we are capable of experiencing.
