Being a person who appreciates horses, this
thought (written by a lady
veterinarian) appealed to me.
If we were mares . . . . .
Some group of scientists sat around having
coffee one morning (even
scientists can't think in the morning without
coffee! ) and came up with
the conclusion that humans are the intelligent
species. . that homo sapiens
are far superior in brain power to all of the other
world's creatures. . .
so my unscientific brain got to thinking about this
today. . . about how
the world could or would be like if we thought and
acted more like my
horses. . . . This is what I came up with:
1. That we (mares) should sit at the kitchen
table when our new
Journals came and pick out our men (stallions).
These stallions would be
only the best that were allowed to reproduce - good
looking, intelligent,
athletic, healthy and excel in a particular
discipline. All others would be
gelded. H. And that we could pick out a
different stallion every year
without earning a bad reputation!
2. That we should be allowed to roam around all
day and eat (graze),
nap, enjoy the outdoors, and socialize with our
buddies as pretty pasture
ornaments with all our needs taken care of by
somebody else!
3. That fat would be considered a desirable
asset and prove that we
are easy keepers.
4. That we should be waited on - our rooms
cleaned, and an all you can
eat buffet before us everyday.
5. That we should get new shoes or a pedicure
every 5 to 6 weeks and our
hair done daily.
6. That we should be chauffeured around when we
need to go somewhere in
an expensive vehicle designed just for us. . . oh,
and with food in front
of us while we travel.
7. That once our babies are weaned they can't
move back home.
8. That we should have better clothes, grooming
supplies, living
conditions and medical care than the people that
take care of us.
Okay scientists. . . now who is really smarter?
