The chosen ones(?)

I'm outside, in the garden.

Thinking...

I can't tell how much I love my dogs. I mean, I just look at them, and... how can they be so adorable? There are days when they're just much better company than any of my friends... They listen whether I'm sad, or happy... whether I cry or laugh... I'm grateful for them...

I often wonder if they can feel what I feel.

Some people say animals don't have feelings. It's bullshit! Why would we deserve more than them? Why would we be able to feel, when they don't? Why would we be God's favourite? We aren't...

Last week my biology teacher said, that we aren't at the top of the food chain. We aren't even close... It got me thinking. We, humans just have a higher IQ level than all of the other creatures on Earth. That's what makes us outstanding from the other creatures. That's the reason we can survive. We learned it through experiences... Is it a bless? It can be... However what we got from nature, we shouldn't use against it.

But is it really an advantage? Our knowledge comes with problems... lots of problems to solve... These little dogs are just playing and jumping around in the garden. They've got no issues. They're so simple... They can't even understand life yet they're happy about it.

We can never be like that, no matter how hard we try. There will always be a thought floating above our head that one day we're gonna die, no matter what we did on this planet. Do you think dogs worry about it? They don't even know what death means...

I just admire them a lot! Sometimes it hurts to know that one day I'll have to say goodbye to them... As they say: "A dog is a part of your life, but you are everything to your dog." My eyes are still full of tears when I saw somewhere and read this line...

So the most important thing: love your dogs! Spend time with them! Because time is the biggest value we have in our life. One day everything and everyone will be gone... You can't change that... So if you chose your dog, make their life happy, and don't let them wait for you while you're sitting in front of the screen! They cannot go back to the shelter or to their parents and say: "Hey, I want another owner, because this one doesn't care about me." They wouldn't say that even if they could. Because they love you! And this is what matters! They love you with their whole presence. That is rare!

Humans can't love like a dog... They think they can... But we will never really understand these creatures. And they will never really understand their own selves. But they will still love you unconditionally!

If you're reading this, you still have time. Go out for a walk with your dog and make memories!
