Happiness, what is happiness? Joy, what does it feel like to experience joy? Change, how can a change so small affect your whole life. Do you ever just sit down and think to yourself, am I truly happy? What causes us, humans, to feel these overjoyed happy emotions? We may never know. In a second your whole life can change. But that second can feel like hours, and once it finally happens, you're happy. You're happy for that 1st week. 2 weeks go by and you're bored of what you have. 3 weeks later you're asking for another life-changing commitment. This is what makes us humans, we want more and more until there's nothing left. This is different, this is something I will cherish and appreciate more than anything. This my first responsibility,

I knew this one-hour car ride wouldn’t go fast. Isn’t it crazy how one boring hour in a car can feel like an entire month? Today, my 17-year-old cousin Madison, my Mom, my Aunt, my 2 sisters Ella, Lilly, and I are visiting Pawsitively Furever Dog Rescue to adopt a dog! Or at least I hope so. We can’t adopt a dog in a car, let alone a moving car. Eventually, we drove to what looked to be a small brown house with a darker brown roof in a parking lot. Beside the house, there was some grass, and around the parking lot, there were some buildings. At last, the car screeched to a stop, and everyone hopped out. We walked over to the door and stepped inside. The first thing I noticed were dogs in cages, and a leather couch to the right of me. Suddenly, something else caught my attention. Madison was kneeling down on the floor attempting to pet a small puppy with her finger through the cage. Immediately, I slid across the floor to where she was to get a good look at the puppy she was petting. Using two fingers I stroked her small fuzzy head. She was gorgeous, brown eyes, blond fur, and the tip of her tail, as well as her ears, were a light caramel color. Poor puppy, she sat in her cage, staring at the floor while another dog in the cage with her barked furiously at the door that had just been opened. Finally, someone told us the puppy's name, Muffin. At that moment, I knew I wasn’t leaving this shelter unless Muffin was coming too. The next hour was a …show more content…
Dad likes to keep things clean, neat, and organized. So, a puppy wasn’t something he wanted. Dad had three requirements, the dog must not shed, the dog must not be a puppy, and the dog must not be a lab. Muffin was all those things, Muffin sheds a lot considering she’s a lab and she’s a puppy. But Muffin’s personality is like no other. She is so sweet and calm that I just have a feeling Dad will fall in love with her just like we did. Once we reached the driveway, Mom started panicking, I didn’t know why though. I was excited to see Dad’s reaction. Mom helped Muffin out of the car and put her on the leash we purchased. Slowly we tip-toed over to Dad hiding behind any tree we could find. Eventually, we ran out of trees. Mom handed me the leash, I was in control now. I walked Muffin over to Dad, halfway there Dad saw Muffin, Muffin saw Dad. Muffin was the first one to do something, her tail started wagging like we’d never seen it before. Purposefully, I dropped the leash and watched as Muffin sprinted over to Dad. Just as I’d hoped, Muffin jumped right on top of Dad, happy to be
