I had adopted her, but she refused to come with me. It was strange, because most dogs can’t wait to leave the kennel. She was crying and dragging her paws. I could have pulled her along… but when I looked down, I finally understood why. And in that moment, I had to make a choice.

Today, I brought home a beautiful soul from the shelter, and the moment he sat in the car, he didn’t bark, didn’t wag his tail—he simply looked at me with eyes full of tears. Was it sadness from waiting 8 long months behind cold metal bars? Or was it the confusion of leaving the only place he’d known? Or maybe… just maybe… it was the hope that, finally, someone had chosen him.

Born in 1832, Jonathan the tortoise turned 193 today. Yes… 193. This dude is literally the oldest land animal alive. He survived 2 world wars, outlived 40 U.S. presidents, 8 British monarchs, and probably watched more drama on Earth than all of us combined. He can’t see and smell anymore, but he still recognizes his caretakers just by voice and touch like a wise old gangster. Think about this: Jonathan was alive before the lightbulb existed… and there is a high chance he might still be here AFTER some of us are gone. Happy birthday legend… keep confusing time, history, and all of us… and may you live many more years!
