“The Things I Carry” Tim O’Brien states in his book‚ “They shared the weight of memory. They took up what others could no longer bear. Often‚ they carried each other‚ the wounded or weak.” When we think or discuss the weight we carry we oftentimes think of physical objects.

Do we love our pets too much? My ten year old pitbull mix was having problems with her hips. She barely got up‚ but when she did‚ she would skid on the floor. From doing so‚ she had scrapped off a piece of her skin on her forearm. It got infected after we would clean it and wrapping the wound‚ she wouldn’t stop opening it.
