Day 07

Day 07- A picture of someone/something that has had an impact on you.

Maggie

The hugest impact on my life has been getting a dog. I got Maggie during a time when I was struggling. Struggling with friends, school, you name it I was struggling with it. My mom often refers to this time as my "Sophomore slump." I was miserable, and there were no signs of improvement. That's when my mom decided we should add another addition to the family. A dog. We went to the pound in search of a dog. We found one dog that I was interested in, but the way the pound works it's first come first serve. Then I saw Maggie. I knelt down next to her cage and she immediately started licking my hand. I knew she was the one. Luckily, she had arrived there earlier that day and we were the first one's to sign up for her. Getting Maggie may sound like a lame event to have had an impact on my life, but while I was struggling she definitely helped me to pull through and she continues to do so now.
