MY crossing the rubicon
"The die has been cast." My toughest decision in my life I had to make was whether or not to keep my dog we recently got. Once when I made my decision, I was devastated because we gave him away.
Ripley may not have listened to us and barked at us, but when he bit my youngest sisters Maeve's face that was the last straw. My mom and dad sat me down and asked me if it was still worth keeping Ripley because I was the one who really wanted him. I was afraid that Ripley might bite her again, so I said he wasn't worth keeping anymore. After we gave Ripley away the next two days I was so upset I didn't say anything. I had a picture of Ripley and me together to remember him, but I lost it and I had nothing to remember him by.
Ripley did miss behave a lot, but it got to the point where my parents sat me down and asked if Ripley was worth keeping when he bit my youngest sister Maeve's face. Afraid that Ripley might hurt someone again I said he wasn't worth keeping anymore. When we gave him away I was extremely upset, and everyone took everything to remember Ripley, so when I lost the picture I had nothing to remember him by. I am not glad that I made the decision because it was a hard decision and I didn't want to make it. this was my Rubicon because when I decided we weren't going to keep him anymore I can't get him back.
