A little peace for GD this morning from a little girl.

My little granddaughter just started 3rd grade and she wrote her first essay of the year. I thought I'd share it with you as we could use a little peace here for a moment:

Peace at the Animal Shelter
Written and Illustrated by G

Peace feels like the fluffy fur of a border collie.

Peace tastes like fresh water in a clean dog bowl.

Peace smells like a shiny clean dog.

Peace sounds like dogs barking happily.

Peace looks like a new pup of a border collie.


Well done, G, and thank you for a respite from all the confusion over peace in the adult world.
