TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF
有一次，麦奇追车玩的时候，尾巴被车碾伤了。为了早点好起来，他躺在垫子上静静修养。不论什么时候经过他藏身的小角落，我总能看见麦奇躺在那里，嘴巴搁在前爪上，等待着伤口自然康复。
几天后他就行动自如了，又叫又闹，在车库的地板上撒欢儿，弄得脖子上的铃铛叮当作响，满屋子转悠着找饼干。
　　我不由得想，如果我们人类受伤了，有些人怎么做呢？我们可能会接着追逐车辆，更努力地工作，或者把时间浪费在怨天尤人上。麦奇凭借他与生俱来的智慧把一切处理得井井有条。他很聪明，该休息的时候就休息，他很爱自己，所以很珍惜自己。
Munchie’s tail was run over by a car he was chasing. To heal, he laid down on his mat and rested. Whenever I passed his little nook, there was the Munchster, lying quietly with his snout on his paws, allowing nature to do its part.
After a few days he was back in action, barking, tinkling on the garage floor, and charging the house in hopes of getting a biscuit.
I thought about what some of us humans might do if we were injured. We might just keep chasing cars, work harder, or blame someone and waste time complaining. Munchie let all of that go in favor of his natural wisdom. He was smart enough to rest when he needed to, and loved himself enough to do it.
