If Humans Were More Like Dogs: A Playful Perspective on Life!
- Details
- Written by David R. Hamilton PhD
I’m sitting on the sofa, laptop on my lap, coffee on the table to my right, and I’m thinking about what to write my next blog about.
And I’m watching my dog play with a ball with unbridled enthusiasm. She rolls it forward and then pounces on it. She occasionally looks up at me as if to say, “Daddy, are you watching? This is awesome.” It’s got me pondering life and what it might be like in an alternate reality if humans were more like dogs.
Imagine if tail wags were the universal language, fun was to be had in the simplest things, and every moment held the promise of a new adventure.
Imagine a world where wagging your tail in excitement was not only socially acceptable but encouraged. Picture a scenario where a heartfelt belly rub could solve just about any problem. Where a simple game of fetch could chase away the darkest of clouds.
In this alternate reality, humans would possess an unwavering loyalty, standing by our loved ones through thick and thin, our devotion as steadfast as a pup waiting faithfully by the door for their human’s return. Jealousy and grudges would be replaced by boundless affection and forgiveness, creating space for deeper connections and stronger relationships.
And ahhhh, the joy of living in the moment. Unburdened by worries of the past or anxieties about the future, we would find heaven in the simplest of pleasures – a toy to play with, a delicious treat to savour, or a gentle breeze to revel in. And imagine how liberating it would be to greet each day with enthusiasm. Imagine waking up with your heart brimming with excitement at the endless possibilities that lie ahead.
In a world where humans embraced their inner canine, we would revel in the beauty of nature. We’d find solace in the great outdoors and relish in the company of our fellow pack members. Cooperation and teamwork would reign supreme. We’d work together towards common goals, each individual contributing their unique talents for the betterment of the whole.
Of course, as I sit here with my coffee, watching Daisy play, it’s easy to get lost in the fantasy of it all. But maybe there’s a lesson to be learned from our four-legged friends. Maybe, just maybe, by emulating their boundless love, present-moment awareness, unwavering loyalty, unshakeable joy, and willingness to drop everything for play, we can unlock the secret to a happier, more fulfilling existence.
Next time life feels a bit overwhelming, or the weight of the world seems too much to bear, take a cue from our furry friends. Wag your tail, chase your dreams, don’t worry about what people think of you, and remember – sometimes, the simplest solutions are the most profound.
After all, in a world where humans were more like dogs, the possibilities are endless, and the next adventure is always just around the corner.
