There’s 3 reasons why I’m doing this tour….
1. To create a legacy for Tina 🎾
2. To helps 10,000s of street dogs 🐕
3. To meet people and say thanks in person for the support 🥰
The third one is super important for me. I often say that I’d rather be with the dogs and find all this hard. That’s true but I also don’t want to seem ungrateful. I am so blessed and have to pinch myself every single day to believe that this is true. No matter how hard I wanted to walk with, hug and tell everybody thanks in person.
I didn’t expect what I got back. I’ve met people who are dying. People who have lost loved ones. People fighting cancer and of course those with addiction and depression battles. There have been people who messaged me saying they had to build up the confidence to come meet me for days.
What I want to share is that there are so many out there battling in life. I’d say a large majority of us in some capacity struggle and put on a brave face for the world. It’s ok to be ok no matter what the online world and perfect lives we are told to aspire to are like. Life for many is hard and I feel that but also I see hope in the eyes of so many. I’ve been there. I was also broken just like Tina but there is always a way back. 2nd chances are real.
The small selection of presents I’ve shared show the hope in the world. Nothing is expensive but every gift is filled with love, hope and kindness. They are for me, staff and dogs. I wouldn’t swap any of them for a Ferrari if you offered me one.
I’ll never know how to thank people for the online and real world support so all I can do is keep helping dogs and talking openly about my own battles so it helps others.
Big love from me and Tina 🙏🥰
