Quote by Steve N. Lee

“Dog shivered on the edge of the curb, his brown coat sodden, raindrops drip-drip-dripping off his nose. The cruel cold gnawing on his bones, he stood transfixed, clinging to the splinter of hope like a hanged man clings to his final breath. He ached to escape this torment and continue his search, but instead, he waiting. Hoping.”

That’s the first step in giving meaning to your life”
