A Tribute to the Dog
The best friend a man has in the world may turn against him and become his enemy.His son or daughter that he has reared with loving care may prove ungrateful.Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our happine and our good name may become traitors to their faith.
The money that a man has, he may lose.It flies away from him, perhaps when he needs it most.A man\'s reputation may be sacrificed in a moment of ill-considered action.The people who are prone to fall on their knees to do us honor when succe is with us, may be the first to throw the stone of malice when failure settles its cloud upon our heads.The one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog.A man\'s dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickne.He will sleep on the cold ground, where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his master\'s side.He will ki the hand that has no food to offer.
He will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounters with the roughne of the world.He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince.When all other friends desert, he remains.When riches take wings, and reputation falls to pieces, he is as constant in his love as the sun in its journey through the heavens.
If fortune drives the master forth, an outcast in the world, friendle and homele, the faithful dog asks no higher privilege than that of accompanying him, to guard him against danger, to fight against his enemies.And when the last scene of all comes, and death takes his master in its embrace and his body is laid away in the cold ground, no matter if all other friends pursue their way, there by the graveside will the noble dog be found, his head between his paws, his eyes sad, but open in alert watchfulne, faithful and true even in death.
The reason I recommend this article:
First,I do agree with this article’s main idea.It exactly describes the dog’s character as the one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world.Year,in this selfish world,you can’t make sure who won’t broke your heart forever,who won’t speak ill of you when you don’t know and who will give you a warm hand when you are in trouble while you can know thatthe dog will be loyal to you whether you have food for it or not.Even if misapprehended,the dog only writes it’s chagin in the eyes and acts as usual,sometimes,it even does
something to ask for our forgivene.When you are sad or feel boring,though can’t read your mind,the dog will try it’s best to make you happy in it’ own way.The next,I do like the way this article is written.For instance, “A man\'s dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickne.”This sentence use the saying during a marriage:Will you stand by her in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickne? That’s interesting and novel.And the intense contrast between people aroud a person and his dog makes the dog more loyal and lovely.
Finally,that’s my experience makes me fascinated with this article,for I have been in love with dogs since I raised a dog when I was very young.I know dogs very well because of it.Though it was asleep forever,my miing for the dog won’t declined with the date.
