Personal Essay: Relationships And Domestic Pets

Improved Essays
Solid relationships are formed when 2 people interact and truly enjoy the time spent with one and other. Enjoying each other’s company enough to entice interest in wanting to continue having those same interactions or discussions and carrying on with that personal bond or friendship. I have many great relationships with friends and family. Most of the happiest moments in my life were experienced with these people. Falling in love is another topic all together but love does come from forming a relationship, and the bond that I have with my Fiancée Savannah brings me tons of happiness and joy to my life. People aren 't the only ones capable of forming a relationship or bond with another being. Animals, especially domestic pets like dogs, cats, …show more content…
I know that is pretty vague but when I am around or with my Fiancée I just feel at ease and happy. The best way to explain how happy she makes me would be to tell you that if somebody asked me, “If you could do anything in the world that you wanted what would you do? Travel? Relax? Work? Anything? I have a ton of things in my life that I enjoy doing but none of them are quite as fun as when I experience something with her. So the answer to the question would be, “Anything as long as I am with Savannah.” Happiness isn’t a feeling that is easy to explain, but the comfort I feel just being in her presence makes me extremely satisfied. I get a ton of enjoyment in my life by spoiling her rotten. I have always gotten more enjoyment out of giving gifts then receiving them. Savannah always vocalizes and appreciates when I am good to her so I think that a bit of my happiness comes from me knowing that she is happy or satisfied with our relationship. Her smile is contagious. I feel invincible when I am with her, as if nothing else matters. I am truly blessed and lucky that I was able to find such an incredible …show more content…
I have always had a love for animals since I was a boy. I can remember wanting a dog my entire life and my parents telling me “No” because of the huge responsibility of owning a pet. I can appreciate the fact that my parents understood that having a pet is like a job and at a younger age most kids aren’t ready to take on such a heavy work load. With that said, I waited until I was ready to take care of a dog and found Henry around my 25th birthday. (I’ll be 32 in August). Henry is an English bulldog and he was very expensive. On my way to pick him up from his breeders I was second guessing paying so much for a dog. I was thinking to myself, “you could buy a car for this much money, go on a nice vacation to Hawaii even.” The second the lady stepped out of their minivan with my boy in his arms I instantly felt happy and didn’t second guess buying him. He was so small but chubby like most bulldog puppies. I could tell that he was scared at first. This was the first time he had ever been away from his family. Little did he know that I was his new family and from this point forward I would do anything in my power to make sure he was always well taken care of. Our bond was instantaneous. He is my best friend. The feeling that I get when I get home from work or school, when he runs and barks and jumps because Daddy is home, can brighten even the darkest days and soften the toughest blows. He

But actually I’m totally fine with this and I accept everything that has happened or will happen – as long as we still express our care for each other. I think this is what I can call love: some feeling that is gradually better and better, and someone that can always make me happy and smile.…
