	Flickr	I was in between. Fiercely independent, had money saved up, and some time before I went West.
	Flickr	My roommate called. Someone found a runaway dog, Dominoe.
	Flickr	I named her after the damsel in "Sharky's Machine."
	Flickr	Dominoe was malnourished, skittish, afraid of a raised hand.
	Flickr	We walked into the woods. She always following a few yards away, my buddy.
	Flickr	One day, we drove farther and walked in the autumn leaves.
	Flickr	We met an old friend. We chatted about 15 minutes, and I turned around.
	Flickr	She was gone.Hours running up and down the trail crying out her name. I was worthless. I could take care of myself, no one else.
	Flickr	Darkness. I would camp out and return the next day. I would do that everyday until I found her. Everyday.
	Flickr	I cried back to the car... and there she was, waiting for me.
	Flickr	My awareness became a circle of responsibility of more than just myself.
	Flickr	We drove across the country.
	Flickr	We had adventures.
	Flickr	We saw new exciting lands.
	Flickr	We looked around.
	Flickr	We made a home in Arizona. We were companions.
	Flickr	We parted permanently, but I never forgot what I learned that day in the woods.
	Flickr	Dominoe.
