it can be, and for many it is.
I'm one of those.
I've had gaps w/o dogs... but the years with, filled with far more...
That's what this film hurts so much. Aches and tugs at the heart strings.
I started crying after a minute or so, didn't stop for a long time after the film had finished.
If only every dog had this beautiful of a tribute, our companions deserve such spectacular treatment.
Life is made more beautiful with our dogs...
the narrative is humorous but intensely emotional, gut wrenching and in a way brings every emotional connection and pain we have to our companions.
My neighbor made a comment, about having dogs for so many years, he's old, retired, he said he couldn't bring himself to bring another dog home because he couldn't bear to live through the pain of losing another one.
There is little emotional pain comparable.... And yes - i've been reading lots of WWII stuff lately, the pain they all went through, Unbroken, Boys in the Boat, All the light we cannot see, life is strange and the meaning strong, but the connection with our dogs, when we make the connection. When the few of us who do make these connections make them... it is different.
Like Mike F said in the Pure Sweet Hell video narrative, those who get it know intrisicly...
literary liberty requested, hope that's okay Chip and Lesli, but I think it fits.
