1
My life is likely to last 10 to 15 years. Any separation from you will be very
painful.
2
Give me time to understand what you want of me.
3
Place your trust in me it is crucial for my well-being.
4
Dont be angry with me for long, and dont lock me up as punishment. You have
your work, your friends, your entertainment. I HAVE ONLY YOU!
5
Talk to me. Even if I dont understand your words, I understand your voice when
its speaking to me.
6
Be aware that however you treat me, Ill NEVER forget it.
7
Before you hit me, remember that I have teeth that could easily crush the bones in your
hand, but I choose not to bite you.
8
Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be
bothering me. Perhaps Im not getting the right food, Ive been out in the sun
too long, or my heart may be getting old and weak.
9
Take care of me when I get old. You, too, will grow old.
10
Go with me on difficult journeys. Never say, "I cant bear to watch it" or,
"Let it happen in my absence." Everything is easier for ME if you are there.
Remember, I LOVE YOU!
