And now I see I have a kindred spirit - Balloon Dog. I thank my friend Ronni who sent me this film; she said it reminds her of me. Truth to tell I probably wouldn't do what Balloon Dog does because I'm not keen on loud noises. Talking of which ...... watch carefully - see when Balloon Dog barks how her Minder smiles sweetly and even laughs! not so mine. When I bark like that I'm in the doo doo. Big Time. But I digress - tell me is Balloon Dog practising Mindfulness here or is it obsession?

Barking Balloon Dog
The debate re Mindfulness carries on in this household (see post below for the background to this). The Minder is still unsure how much of my focus on playing with a frisbee/ball/ squeaky toy etc is Mindfulness and how much of it is obsession. Whatever. All I know is that I give 100% of my attention to playing, hiking, digging for a rat, putting up a pheasant, making new friends, chasing rabbits, rolling, sleeping, guarding house and home, meditating, and the many other things a dog with a blog does in every happy moment of her day. And if that isn't being Mindful I don't know what is.

No, not mindfulness. This is called being a Jack Russell terrier!!
He is being true to himself -- that should surely be OK with Buddhism.
Sorry to take so long to reply chrisj but I have been thinking and reflecting on your post. In fact it has given me an idea for the next one so thank you and watch this space!
Hey Flora
Stan the Dog here - I like to play with Balloons as well but I run away when they burst cos Im scared.
Did I mention I'm still hungry?
Hey Stan I'm with you on that one - balloon noise not hunger. I'm guessing you are a Labrador or similar because it is part of your true nature to be still hungry. This interests me - our true nature - what is it. Is it learned or is it innate?
Oh I say Flora, A jack russels and a bit of a thinker, eh?
Wanna come over, roll in some fox poo with me and debate Karma, sometime?
Hi Flora
Mr Woogie here - Toria has shown me the balloons! I too love balloons but I don't know if I could pop that many in one go now I have only a few teeth left!
Happy New Year to you!
Great subject. I have been playing around with the idea of the comment structure recently.
I think now Internet user are increasing day by day so company are preferring online marketing now.
I think that Marketing Online is still the best choice, cause we have high ROI´s with less investments, especially with SEO.
Thanks
