If you've ever had a pet, you would have, at least once, come back home after having a bad day and said to it, "I wish I was like you. You're always so happy!"
The author, a successful marketing manager in a high-powered job, had never been interested in animals and was against his wife's idea of getting a dog for their two daughters. However, when Skotti, a cute springer spaniel, joined their family, Gilles Moutounet was surprised to find how much his life was transformed for the better from their new companion.
In this book, the author shares the wise lessons about life he learned from observing Skotti, which include:
• Trusting Life/the Universe to supply our needs
• Living in the now
• Expressing gratitude for what we have today
• Taking time to enjoy nature
• Being patient with the processes of life
Written in a down-to-earth manner, and full of humour and quotes from authors such as Eckhart Tolle and Paulo Coelho, this is an uplifting book that will bring warmth and joy to the heart's of its readers.
