Living in Florida means learning to balance hope and caution. As the storm edges near, we’re crossing fingers for an easy ride. My Dobie watches from the window, ears perked, reading every sound outside like a weather report.
She’s calm but alert, matching my energy in perfect sync. It’s comforting to know she’s right there — loyal, watchful, unshaken. Even in moments of uncertainty, she has this quiet confidence that keeps me grounded.
Whatever the weather brings, we’ll be ready. She reminds me that resilience isn’t just strength — it’s calm, patience, and trust in the moment.
