Identity

MySpace, Facebook (I had techie friends dying of laughter one night when I mixed the two up and combined them into MyFace), YouTube, Twitter, and many others, are all ways of putting on a public identity, letting your friends and the world know who you are, that you exist.  In some sense, like this blog, it's the ultimate narcissism, thinking someone wants to know you're every move, thought, see your every picture.

We still have a lot to learn from the simplicity inherent in dogs.  Sage and Murphy definitely know who they are, what they are about.  While both, particularly Sage now, crave attention and will engage in antics to gain a pet, a hug, a laugh, they don't seem to need 24/7 affirmation.  They're identity is secure.

But then again, Murphy does have her own blog!

Murphy's day.
