The Power of Music

There are only a few things that automatically make me cry. One is graduations (I wish I were able to explain this). Another is animals.

As anyone who knows me (and only people who know me read this), I love dogs. Lurrrvvv them. And a dog in distress is potentially the saddest thing that has ever happended. The ASPCA decided, for both heart-wrenching and money-donating reasons, to feature Sarah McLachlan in their most recent campaign. It is effective. Hearing "In the Arms of an Angel" while viewing sad puppy eyes is overwhelming. Ordinarily, this song would merely make me nostalgic for being 13 (Lilith Fair '98!), but right now I just want to run through the streets until I find a stray dog to save.

I am going to donate right now. As soon as I stop crying.

So that you can have a good cry too:
