[The Dalbo Dog @Dalbodog]

Tomorrow morning, in a few hours I will bid a final farewell to my eyes, my ears, my nose, my protector, my best friend, my partner and my son. I cannot express and won’t even attempt to express the contributions my partner made to the community he served, and to me whom he protected. At times knowing he was going into battle, and disregarded natural instincts and put his life before mine. Some will see him as only a dog, but to the lives he undoubtedly saved, and touched he will forever be CP109 K9 King, a hero. Here to take care of what needs taken care of, always ready to carry the burden. Rest easy son, if there’s a heaven for heroes, you’re there as the most beautiful of Gods creation, Man’s best friend, my best friend. In 1,000 lifetimes I’ll never deserve you 💙😢🙏

Research shows you can help disarm anxiety with a curious mind-set: Ask yourself “What is happening?” not “Why”. #anxiety #mentalhealth #thursdaythoughts https://t.co/LZFkU25KMV

Good news as this has potentially huge value for the clinical world in general! #depression #HigherED #MentalHealthMatters

History was made last night 🙌

In my work w/ these children/adolescents as a clinical psychologist I can attest to the damage being placed on them and families I serve. Very disturbing.

"I adopted my child knowing he was an animal coming from deep abuse & abandonment. He has anxiety attacks almost daily then I hug him, talk to him & tell him everything is alright.. it calms him down faster & every day gets better. We gonna be alright again. We are together now"

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Today, the Supreme Court not only reversed nearly 50 years of precedent, it relegated the most intensely personal decision someone can make to the whims of politicians and ideologues—attacking the essential freedoms of millions of Americans.

I still can't get over these senseless deaths. Beyond heartbreaking. #empd

Dr. Roy Guerrero, a pediatrician in Uvalde, Texas, described to Congress seeing children so "pulverized" and "decapitated" by bullets "that the only clue as to their identities was their blood-spattered cartoon clothes still clinging to them." https://t.co/w32qyGkFTx

Be kind to your dog , he is a few years of your life , but you are all of this ❤

[Taylor Swift @taylorswift13]

Filled with rage and grief, and so broken by the murders in Uvalde. By Buffalo, Laguna Woods and so many others. By the ways in which we, as a nation, have become conditioned to unfathomable and unbearable heartbreak. Steve’s words ring so true and cut so deep.

[Dr. Thema @drthema]

Give yourself and others compassion for the diverse ways we experience and express grief. Whether you are weeping, posting, distracting, praying, strategizing, or raging, your heart deserves tenderness.
