Jasmine, my mother's dog, came to visit with Frank. They were not too sure of each other at first, but they have now bonded and seem to be good friends. Jasmine likes to bite on Frank's hind quarters, tail or (ahem) other parts, to try to entice him to fight and play. But when he's finally had enough, he jumps up on a bed, and she can't get to him.
"If we are to have peace on earth ... our loyalties must transcend our race, our tribe, our class, and our nation; and this means we must develop a world perspective. No individual can live alone, no nation can live alone, and as long as we try, the more we are going to have war in this world. We must either learn to live together as brothers or we are all going to perish together as fools."
Martin Luther King, Jr. 1967
