Nala Laying In Her Sunspot

Posted by Russ Devan (New Hanover, United States) on 14 October 2009 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

Our labrador retriever, Nala, loves to lay in the sunspot in the kitchen that comes through the upstairs window.

"The Master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he is always doing both."
