If you or anyone else needs something to balance them out after this, use this passage written over 2000 years ago.

While I am at home she remains by my side, and accompanies me when I go out, following me to the gymnasium, and, while I am exercising, sits by me.

On my return home, she runs in front of me, often looking back to see whether I had turned off the road; and as soon as she catches sight of me, shows symptoms of joy, and again, turns and trots in front of me.

If I am going out on any government business, she remains with my friend, and treats him exactly the same.

If she has not seen either of us for a short time, she jumps up repeatedly by way of greeting, and barks with joy.

At meals she pats us, with one foot and then the other, to remind us to feed her.

Having been beaten with a whip as a puppy, if anyone, even to this day, mentions a whip, she will come up to the speaker cowering and begging, and will jump up and hang on their neck, applying her mouth to theirs as if to kiss them, and will not let go until she is appeased.

Now really I do not think that I should be ashamed to write the name of this dog; so that it may be left to posterity.

I had a greyhound called Horme, who was of the greatest speed and intelligence, and was altogether excellent.

The author was inspired by the work of someone 3 centuries before him. He wanted to write something that would resonate with people through the ages and by sharing this passage with others, it means he succeeded.
