The outside of an animal is good for the inside of a child

Quote from the movie Grand Champion, it is a variation of another quote I have heard, but do not remember the exact wording.

The outside of an animal is good for the inside of a child

I had to read this one several times wondering exactly what this meant. I looked it up and found it on several different animal assisted sites for children with disabilities etc.

I also came across this next quote which is very similar.

“The outside of a horse is good for the inside of a man.”

Winston Churchill

The meaning I get from it is that being around animals has a positive influence on people.

Sometimes it takes an animal's showing unconditional love for us, for us to be able to show that ourselves to others.

A child with learning or social problems will often shy away from human contact, but be drawn to a dog, cat, or other animal that doesn't judge that child because of the disability.

Therapy animals have worked where us human therapists have failed.

Sometimes animals can touch our hearts and souls when no other human can.

I love quotes. Beware!

People spend a lifetime searching for happiness; looking for peace. They chase idle dreams, addictions, religions, even other people, hoping to fill the emptiness that plagues them. The irony is the only place they ever needed to search was within.
--Ramona L. Anderson

[Kelly68]

"No one will ever breathe one breath for us. No one will ever think one thought that is ours. No one will ever stand in our bodies, experience what happens o us, feel our fears, dream our dreams, or cry our tears...No one else can ever live a single moment of our lives for us. That we must do for ourselves".

[Kelly68]

"Courage means flying in the face of criticism, relying on yourself, being willing to accept and learn from the consequences of all you choices. It means believing enough in yourself and in living your life as you choose so that you cut the strings whose ends other people hold and use to pull you in contrary directions".

[Kelly68]

"When we know that the cause of something is in ourselves, and that we (ourselves) are one of the few things in this universe that we have the fight and the ability to change, we begin to get a sense of the choices we really do have, an inkling of the power we have, a feeling of being in charge-of our live, of our future, of our dreams".

[Kelly68]

"The way you treat yourself sets the standard for others".

[Kelly68]

"What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?"
