Every time a payment comes through from a freelance assignment, I take out 1.8% of my share, buy biscuits from them & then roam around India giving them to street dogs & playing with them.
Why only dogs?
Because I have a strong hunch, that I helped mine get over her fear of dogs. I count it as a personal victory in helping her fight one of her fears. To the point that we jointly agreed, that the only type of parents we'd ever become is dog mom & dog mom's husband.
Due to my traveling lifestyle, I have been feeding dogs all across India's map, but sometimes I tend to run into repeats, say at highway tolls far away from my home, & when they come running at me, recognising me months apart, I keep questioning, at what part of human development did 'Dog' become a curse word?
I am not lonely.

Good question. The only reason why i upload every single instance is because I name each & every one of these buds & I have a sloppy memory with names. So helps me continue the conversation with them when I run into these guys after long periods.
