Def my fault im the one thinking abt it too much but. Cosmic comedy of me. Oh i shall refresh my commitment to viewing behaviours thru the situations that bring them out. Even for my dog! Can i blame him for reacting to stimuli?

Later [refilling the dogs outside water bowl. The bowl he has bc he does not like the inside water and will drink from puddles if he does not have] someone else: why are you doing that he'll drink the inside water eventually.

Hmmmmmm.

#some shit #short answer: cause its easy and I love him? want him to drink water? he likes it out there?#long answer: i find myself more emotionally fulfilled if i dont just assume other peoples. and indeed. animals. behaviour comes from #nowhere. this is a techique i think extremely load bearing for interacting with children and animals but also can greatly enhance your life #when used on grown ups! like? your peers? friends? family? enemies?#the stimuli he reacted to was literally like. other dogs barking [out of my earshot] and the smell of bbq. again b4 i smelt it. and it #was just like. oh! right. duh. let me be more uh. con she en tious. conscientious. <- WOO. nailed that. of that he literally knows things #that i do not. he experiences things in a way i do not : } thats cool.#yeah there was a kid in my store today and both the parent and my manager were acting in ways why do u ask.
