About Being Human

Being human has its challenges. In fact after reading my story you might even assume that it would be better to be a dog than a skinny, middle-aged, elementary assistant principal. You are probably thinking that a dog only eats, sleeps, plays, poops and drools. It is quite true that a dog is always there for the party, but somehow gets away without ever having to be assigned to the planning or the clean up committee. Personally I would prefer to be a Rottweiler, Border Collie or Labrador, but I wouldn’t even mind being a mutt. This whole argument is fruitless because even though a dog is void of responsibility and therefore has no worries, concerns, or anxieties a dog is also void of responsibility and therefore does not progress, learn and know true happiness.
