If you could make your pet understand one thing, what would it be?
We—humans both love and envy you.
You can see things we can’t see.
You can hear things we can’t hear.
You can smell things before we even do.
You’re born to run out and about—free.
You’re born to fly and soar high.
You’re born to dive and swim deep, deep, deep in dark seas, rivers, and oceans.
You’re satisfied with the way you are; your look, your shape, and your size.
You’re happy wherever you live;
a nest, a hole, a cave, a shell, or a tree.
You don’t mind— never mind.
You know what to eat and when to eat.
You’re funny, unexpected, and loyal.
You love life, clinging to its last moment,
but you live it instead of thinking too much about it.
And… we learn from you.
Yes, we humans, with our superior, complex brains learn from you—our dear pets.
With humans-and-pets thoughts,
Nahla
