People generally do not make connections between dog collars and sentimental values; however, in my case, dog collars are some of the most invaluable objects that I possess. My two dogs, Honey and Lucky, were a significant part of my life until approximately two years ago when they died. Not only were they my best friends, but they were also the ones to whom I could always go whenever I was feeling upset. What was also so special about them was that: they would never judge me, they would always comfort me when I was sick, and they would always be so thrilled to see me, regardless of how much time had passed. Every time I saw them, they brought me an immense feeling of joy. When they died, my dad asked me if I wanted to keep their collars and I immediately responded, “Yes!” Every time I see the collars, I experience flashbacks of the great memories we shared together; those in which I will carry with me for the rest of my life. If one looks at the collars closely, he can see minute fractions of their hair and can even get little hints of their distinguishable smells. Furthermore, when I pick up the collars, the unique jingle triggers the vivid memories I cherish of my two dogs. Honey and Lucky were my friends since the age of two, and even though they have passed away, they are, and always will be, a major part of my life. Even though their bodies are not physically present, their spirit resides in my heart. Their joy and unconditional love have taught me what a true friend really is, and have significantly impacted the person I am today.
