I'm so sorry.

Rating: 2 votes, 5.00 average.
Why do you keep screaming at me?

What am I supposed to do?

I know you're angry! I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! Please stop, please help me understand what I must do. I've tried everything I know to do. I've tucked my tail in between my legs, I've cowered, I've done everything I can to show you my submission, my apology for existing. All I want is for you to be happy, and to be fed and kept warm. But most of all for you to be happy. Starve me, beat me, but if you're happy, I'll try my best to be happy too, I'll love you despite what you do to me.

How many others would do this for you? And yet it's not enough?

I don't understand what you're saying, I don't know what you want; how could I? I don't speak your language, I don't think like you do. I don't see things the same way. Give me time, give me patience, I'll try my hardest, I'll figure it out, but I can't just know right away.

Imagine being in a foreign country, where they don't speak your language, and they don't have similar customs. Imagine you're all alone there, with nothing to help you grasp your situation or the people you find yourself surrounded by. Now imagine that these people are screaming their lungs out at you. Imagine them kicking you, slapping you, withholding food, water and basic shelter when you don't understand them. When you couldn't possibly be expected to understand. Imagine you're trapped there, with the people abusing you, with no known hope of escape.

Then maybe you might have an inkling of what I'm going through.

    Sorry OM! I really shouldn't watch Animal Cops. If it helps, I was rather choked up when I wrote it. Made me make typos... that for some reason I now can't edit.

    And thanks :)

    No way in hell can I watch Animal Cops. It enrages me to the point I can't breathe. :-(

    It does the same to me... or worse yet makes me cry. I don't think I could do their job... I'd be far too tempted to violence.

    I should not have clicked on this. Might as well go listen to Sara McLaughlin now too.

    I could easily strangle a human being.....but....I cannot abide cruelty to animals. Anyone who murders a rhino or an elephant....I would gladly insert a cattle-prod into their anus. The suffering of such an individual would give me great pleasure. Genocide....I understand.....but dogs are sacred. I've never trusted any creature with two legs.

    If I had a smidgen less self control(or a bigger yard/house and more money) I'd end up adopting every animal needing a home that I find...

    I couldn't easily strangle a human being, my hands aren't strong enough. But I absolutely abhor cruelty to animals, the only stories on here I cannot read are the ones where animals are killed.

    PS. What about emus?

    That was an awesome blog, at first I thought the princess needed man training.

    Merci beaucoup. The princess is already fully trained, no need for screaming at him!

    I loved it. Made me want to cut my veins and write with my blood. Okay I am off my rocker but that was passionate.

    Umm... thank you! I was feeling rather passionate when I wrote it. But err, please don't cut your veins. At least, not the big ones.

    It's very therapeutic to actually put my thoughts on a bloggish type thing.

    I'm going through my blogs, dragging some over to FB when I noticed the hit count on this blog.

    Over 16K views?? How the hell did that happen?? Prior to this most of my blogs peaked at just over 600 views, then came this one and the one just before it which has 8000 views. Who the hell is suddenly viewing them? How did they get here?
