This movie revealed scenarios in which the human spirit is placed to endure against life's inevitable struggles such as terminal illness, parenting, loss of family, trauma and relationships. Morals and values are brought to the brink of despair by dishonesty, deception, and financial struggles. Ultimately it is through loss where we either submit with anger and bitterness, or envelope our soul with love and forgiveness. Our ability for compassion can be amplified by our nurturing relationship with a canine companion who yearns for nothing more than our ability to love unconditionally.
