A leap of faith.

When despondency was recently at an unhealthy high, my delightful furry friend reminded me that it's okay to throw caution to the wind and take a blind leap of faith. More importantly, my Bean proved that having the right people in your corner spurring you on is encouragement enough to springboard you past that emotional lull. People who are true to you. Those who when positions may have been reversed, knew you to be the one to buoy flagging spirits.

Taking that leap of faith is testimony and an honour to those amazing stalwarts of support, who even when the chips are down continue to have an unwavering belief in you. Go on then, jump - they dare you! I dare you!!

Bean did - he took that first leap and now bears the dubious crown of 'Jumping Jelly Bean Meister'. So much so that he keeps on raising the bar and the jumps seem to be getting alarmingly higher and higher. Could he be part kangaroo, part pug I wonder? Scary thought...
