Two questionable pictures that most people would view as provocative at first glance, but if you look beyond the first glance you may be able to see a glimpse of the real picture. Both were two perfectly sacred moments -- a much needed hug after a disappointing day of training and a mid-day promise-making moment (when Snickers promised me he'd never let me celebrate another birthday alone) with a clinging of coffee cups and a couple of tears to seal the deal.

No one but us in these moments will ever understand what each moment meant and that's all that matters.
