So many times I have sat and listened to my friends day dream and fantasize about how life would be if we could live it a different way. I have often heard them say, "man, how cool would it be if you were a dog. I wish I was a dog, that would be the life."
Being free of duties and responsibilities, having all of your meals prepared for you, and running and playing all the while that you do not spend sleeping; these are the ideals that made the dogs life seem so enticing to my friends.
Just a night ago I was thinking on this idea, while I lay with my own canines, and thought of another reason being a dog might be so nice. As I watched the short Westie, the little Yorkie, the Shepherd/Boxer puppy and the Border Collie mix all play together with indifference to the others' colour or type, I realized that they were free from any bias against each other despite their differences. Now wouldn't that be delightful, to live in a world that is ignorant of race or racism. It is a shame we cannot simply all have four legs and a tail. haha :).
i love this post! its a very fresh way to look at this topic. i have to admit i feel the same way about being a cat sometimes:)

ReplyDeleteI have to say that I am unimpressed at how noone has commented on how cute my dogs are :( haha jk.
ReplyDeletethat's a great point, racism and prejudice doesn't exist for all? (or at least most if there are any i am overlooking) other animal species.
ReplyDeleteInteresting thanks! and your dogs are adorable! :) the yorkie reminds me of a dog we used to have.
