My animals literally saved me from ending up with the wrong person. Do what is in your heart and the universe will mirror your energy- never do anything just because you think it's what will impress others, and always do what is right no matter how unpopular it might be. You will be rewarded one way or another- in my case my perfect match found me, someone whose goal is to live compassionately. I didn't do any of this with a reward in mind but it does make life a whole lot more beautiful to receive one.
