Take the current when it serves!

Henry here:

Yep, I can walk on water. Now don’t get all literal with me. My human mummy tells me I’m actually walking on a tube, that is being pulled on a boat, that is on the water. But, I’m a dog and I need to be concise. I’m walking on water!

My human mummy loves Shakespeare. She has a mirror etched with a Shakespeare quote in our hallway:

There is a tide in the our affairs¹

Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;
Omitted, all the voyage of their life
Is bound in shallows and in miseries.
On such a full sea are we now afloat,
And we must take the current when it serves,
Or lose our ventures.

So on this fun Friday, you can be all philosophical or you just smile watching me, Henry, surf the waves! Have fun! Enjoy your weekend, and take the current when it surfs.

Love, Henry (April’s Dog)
