I love being human, but every now and then, it is fun to imagine oneself as an animal, to experience the world from that perspective. If could be an animal for a day, I would choose to be bird. It would be wonderful to fly like they do and sing like they do. Which animal would you choose to be for a day?Karen

I'd like to become a phoenix. I think it would be great to be able to fly, to be immortal for a day (ha, they can't shoot at me!), to be able to heal other people, to be immensely strong, and to be beautiful and radiant. Phoenixes also hum the most beautiful notes in legends, so they bring happiness to other people. That would be great, don't you think? :D

I truly do think that would indeed be great. I especially like the idea of being able to heal other people. A very unique and interesting choice : ) I appreciate you sharing it. Karen

Yeah this is a fun/interesting thing to think about I would say...a small dog which is owned by sweet person who takes cares of her family including her dog. I just want to see how the dog sees us since I have a dog also

That is a very good reason to want to be a dog for a day. Maybe you'd get little treats and wear a bow tie. Or perhaps you'd get to travel about all day in a rich and eccentric lady's purse. Imagine the fun :D Karen

What a great concept. The day you spend being a dog, your dogs could be humans : )

I'm with you on this one.. I would like to be a dog, just to see how it feels like.. I have 2 dogs, and sometimes I wonder what are they thinking when they're looking at me.. And most of the time I think are they happy here? or do they need or want something more... So 1 whole day as a dog can help me understand my two dogs more. =)

It's a toss up between a bird and a cat. I was going to say cat, until I saw my daughter pick up ours as the cat had the look of resigned horror on her face lol. So nix the kitty. I'd be a bird. To be able to fly free, to see the world as birds do, soar and play in the wind. Crap on cars lol.

LOL, I chose a bird, too. Ah, yes, to be able to crap on certain things. Or people? A bird did that to me once when I was hanging out laundry lol. Good answer, by the way. Karen

if i could be an animal one day ,i think i will want to be a puppy .because puppys do not need to go to work ,or go to school and can enter pet contests . the best reason why i like to be a puppys is that puppys do not need to go to work because it should be relaxing !

Well, you've already chosen bird, so i guess I would choose to become a big blue whale. So I can explore the deep blue sea and go to the deepest part of it. I just hope that whale poachers wouldn't kill me. LOL.

You could have chosen bird, too, but your choice might be my second. Exploring the oceans sounds wonderful. Yes, do stay away from those poachers LOL. Karen

I'd like to be an eagle so I could soar high. I'd like to see the world's landscape with my eyes - the mountain ranges that conceal the intertwining rivers, the verdant grasslands that usher the sloping highways to some shire, a pack of people rushing on a busy street to catch a train, the massive man-made structures like the Great Wall, the breathtakingly large Pacific Ocean that really scares me... Wow, If I am an eagle, I could wake at the break of dawn and meet the easterly winds for a new day. Ain't that exciting, witnessing God's recreation of life?

Totally exciting, yes! One could see so much of nature in a day as an eagle. They have such sharp and far-reaching eyesight. If only... : ) Karen
