Maybe They Are
Human beings seem to have no connection
to animals, unless those animals
used to be you. Did you ever wonder
where animals came from? Did you
ever think, once upon a time, you may
have been one?
I'm talking about your genetic code; it never
enters your mind that it was all a part of your soul.
Your mouth, nose and feet all need water
and something to eat. Wouldn't it be
something to see, if you were first an
animal before becoming a human being?
Would you eat and kill them like you
do now? What a thought. It just makes say
me wow! I think that would be a great change,
if being and animal was once your name.
Do you think that it could be true? Look at
animals looking at you. Ask yourself if what
you see could be what they are going to be?
You would then show more love for them, if you
knew they would become your future kin.
You would not eat of them, out of respect--
knowing that it would have your future family--
I'll take that bet. Yes, they could be part of your
family tree, as you become their history.
I remember reading in the Bible, when it said
not to worry about the food. God will take care of
you. Look at animals: no hospitals, doctors or
stores, and, for the most part, no politics or wars.
This thought must come to end; somewhere in
the middle, animals may have found a friend.
However, it's just something we need
to think about. Like a door, you can come in or
you can go out.
