Innocence

Loyalty, unfailing love, instant forgiveness, a humble sense of his place in the scheme of things, a sense of wonder--these and other virtues of a dog arise from his innocence. The first step toward greater joy is to stop fleeing from innocence, begin retreating from cynicism and nihilism, and embrace once more the truth that life is mysterious and that it daily offers meaningful wonders for our consideration.
--Dean Koontz
