black dog

“I used many times to touch my own chest and feel, under its asthmatic quiver, the engine of the heart and lungs and blood and feel amazed at what I sensed was the enormity of the power I possessed. Not magical power, but real power. The power simply to go on, the power to endure, that is power enough, but I felt I had also the power to create, to add, to delight, to amaze and to transform.”

this drawing was inspired by an awareness video about depression, its an interesting video i would say. i like how they portray it with a black dog.

have u ever wonder what kind of black dog inside you? mine is a medium sized one if you ask me. Black Basset Hound mayb? she is a patience dog, but she required to be left alone once awhile and avoid very noisy n crowded place, as she likes to sleep. food always makes her happy. Since she has short legs and long heavy body,which makes her move alitle slow and cant stay long in water,  that might explain why i like to walk around or go for a swim to get my head out off things. hahah

2014 is around the corner, may the black dog within us be more obedient, behave, harmless and maybe more cuddly :)
