Dogs really are man’s best friend. They are such loving, loyal companions, and their love can mean the world to people — especially those who have so little else like homeless people. And unlike us, dogs don’t pass judgment on people who are down on their luck or homeless.

On Instagram was posted the image of a homeless man holding a dog in his arms, a sight that contains at an equivalent time the sadness of misery, but also the tenderness of affection and then the light of hope. As is so often the case, everyone tends to find out what they need, a touch like in Rorschach’s Stain Test, and projects out what they really carry inside.

Among the feasible readings, one can not think that, although it stands for a depiction of poverty and what it means to determine on the road, this photo conveys a key message. The person and his pup remainder peacefully amongst the eyes of all, giving each other affection and luxury. The stranger isn’t alone, however, can believe the unconditional love of a faithful friend, a guardian spirit without wings but with four legs!

The Internet might be a huge container with strange and hilarious photos, but also with other much less pleasant and less educative contents.

The sweetness and ugliness of such a fantastic tool, often without a filter, consists in capturing the reality of things, both in their rawness and in their beauty. So it happens that every time throughout this train of shots that go through the home windows like faces, moving scenes appear that leave you wordless and invite you to show for a couple of moments what reality worth’s of a lifetime actually is.
