Life as an Animal
I was asked in a job interview – if I was an animal, what would I be. Funny thing is I had an answer – a specific answer which actually shocked the interviewers.
It is something I have thought about periodically through my life – maybe because I absolutely love animals. Below is my answer:
A land animal:
A horse because they are majestic, magical and beautiful and I absolutely love watching wild ones especially when they run in their herd and riding them is very spiritual and freeing.

A tropical animal:
A leopard because they are exquisite, fast, elegant and loving.

An Ocean Animal:
A dolphin because I have always wanted to swim with them, they are friendly, inquisitive, intelligent and fun.
A bird:
An eagle because they are faithful, mate for life, test their mates in the trust fall - the death spiral, are beautiful and they rise above the storm to find peace. We can learn a lot from them.
The interesting part about all of this is, I want to be all those things – I strive to be all those things.
Questions to Ponder:
What kind of animal are you drawn to?
What attributes stand out to you about them?
Are they things you strive to be or have?
Think about it…
