Thanks to, Susan, a long-time Feed Your Good Dog friend and supporter, for the Fable of the Porcupine to remind us to appreciate the good qualities in others.

Fable of the Porcupine

It was the coldest winter ever.

Many animals died because of the cold.

The porcupines, realizing the situation, decided to group together.

They were covered and protected, but the quills of each wounded the closest companion.

After a while, they decided to distance themselves, and they began to die, alone and frozen.

So they had to make a choice: either accept the quills of their companions or disappear from the Earth.

Wisely, they decided to go back to being together.

They learned to live with the little wounds that were caused by their close relationships because the most important part was the heat that came from the others.

They were able to survive.

The best relationship is not the one that brings together perfect people, but the one that forms when individuals learn to live with the imperfections and admire the good qualities of others.

Thank you, Teresa, for your gift of Norman Vincent Peale’s Positive Thinking Every Day! Dr. Peale influenced the world with his philosophy of positive thinking. The following is an excerpt from the book’s introduction, which he wrote on January 13, 1993:

I think that quotations from great thinkers can profoundly affect one’s life. … The thought struck me so forcefully that it vitally affected my total faith and still does.

The truth of it seemed certain. I believed it. I accepted it. From my personal background I associated personal change with faith and in a flash of insight knew that I could change my life by changing my attitude. I have been advocating that truth about people people ever since. ~Norman Vincent Peale (May 31, 1898 – December 24, 1993).

TGIFYGDF…Thank Goodness It’s Feed Your Good Dog Friday!

February 11, 2011 by Rose Caplan

Set aside time this weekend with your sweetheart – just the two of you – to take in a romantic comedy.

Jenna Birch at Your Tango provides us with her list of The 10 Best Romantic Comedy Duos Of All Time complete with trailers of the movies the duos have appeared in together.

There is nothing better than a slightly-sappy, hilarious, love-infused tale full of idealistic notions to make us feel a little lighter. Romantic comedies are simply the best, but in order for a rom-com flick to come together, casting is key.

We want to fall head-over-heels for the screen couple’s relationship, so it’s nice when their chemistry is totally radiating from the screen. Well, actually, it’s rather essential. But of course, some actor pairings have captured that romantic essence better than the rest, and we’re counting down those duos right here.

Take a gander and see if you agree.

Click on the rom-com duo of your choice below to see a movie trailer and see if you agree with Jenna’s take on the chemistry between the actors. Happy Valentine’s Day!

  1. Hugh Grant and Sandra Bullock (Two Weeks Notice ’02)
  2. Woody Allen and Diane Keaton (Annie Hall ’77)
  3. Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan (When Harry Met Sally… ’89)
  4. Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn (Roman Holiday ’53)
  5. Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson (How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days ’03, Fool’s Gold ’08)
  6. Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn (The Philadelphia Story ’40, Bringing Up Baby ’38)
  7. Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore (The Wedding Singer ’98, 50 First Dates ’04)
  8. Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn (Adam’s Rib ’49, Pat and Mike ’52)
  9. Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan (Joe Versus the Volcano ’90, Sleepless in Seattle ’93, You’ve Got Mail ’98)
  10. Richard Gere and Julia Roberts (Pretty Woman ’90, Runaway Bride ’99)

Winning is a habit. Watch your thoughts, they become your beliefs. Watch your beliefs, they become your words. Watch your words, they become your actions. Watch your actions, they become your habits. Watch your habits, they become your character. ~Vince Lombardi
