本文选自美国作家Jim Willis的畅销书《Pieces Of My Heart-----Writings Inspired by Animals and Nature》,该书以自述的形式讲述了一只家犬对昔日主人的真情告白.当年作者用七千美元以全版广告的形式在报纸上刊登了该文章,以一篇文章感动了所有的读者.
When I was a puppy,I entertained you with my antics and made you laugh.You called me your child,and despite a number of chewed shoes and a couple of murdered throw pillows,I became your best friend.Whenever I was "bad," you'd shake your finger at me and ask "How could you?"-but then you'd relent,and roll me over for a belly rub.
My housebreaking took a little longer than expected,because you were terribly busy,but we worked on that together.I remember those nights of nuzzling you in bed and listening to your confidences and secret dreams,and I believed that life could not be any more perfect.We went for long walks and runs in the park,car rides,stops for ice cream (I only got the cone because "ice cream is bad for dogs," you said),and I took long naps in the sun waiting for you to come home at the end of the day.
Gradually,you began spending more time at work and on your career,and more time searching for a human mate.I waited for you patiently,comforted you through heartbreaks and disappointments,never chided you about bad decisions,and romped with glee at your homecomings,and when you fell in love.She,now your wife,is not a "dog person"-still I welcomed her into our home,tried to show her affection,and obeyed her.I was happy because you were happy.
Then the human babies came along and I shared your excitement.I was fascinated by their pinkness,how they smelled,and I wanted to mother them,too.Only she and you worried that I might hurt them,and I spent most of my time banished to another room,or to a dog crate.Oh,how I wanted to love them,but I became a "prisoner of love." As they began to grow,I became their friend.They clung to my fur and pulled themselves up on wobbly legs,poked fingers in my eyes,investigated my ears,and gave me kisses on my nose.I loved everything about them and their touch-because your touch was now so infrequent-and I would have defended them with my life if need be.I would sneak into their beds and listen to their worries and secret dreams,and together we waited for the sound of your car in the driveway.
