Zinnia, Guardian Of The Gate

by Jon Katz

I’m grateful for Zinnia. She practices the idea of small acts of great kindness, she has a great heart and beautiful spirit. Several months ago, I fell down the stairs rushing to get to the bathroom when I was sick. Since then, Zinnia comes up the stairs ahead of me and stands guard, peering through the landing poles to keep an eye on me and make sure I get up safely.

There is really nothing in the world like dog love. I’m off to the Mansion this morning for my meditation class.
