Pets and kids

Recent events had led me to a conclusion that kids and pets (Think dogs, rabbits, hamsters and cats etc) are alike. Very.

Both are energetic. (How else can anyone explains their boundless energy as they either screams/barks and ran around for hours?)
Both tends to be cute to the extent of irresistible.
Both pets and children have the privileges of making a mess and getting away with it. Arghh...
Both are free to roam the world untroubled. (They haven’t learn the word ‘trouble’ yet.)
Both are great conversation topics as proud parents compare with others over their upbringing and skills learned etc.
Both adds on to the expenses of the household yet it’s a necessity.
Both of them are great sources to spill any good or bad news. (I wondered if people are mad to talk with pets or did the talk actually made them stay sane..?)

Perhaps it’s the act of caring for them that gave us motivation to be better than before. Almost everyone would like the best for their kids/pets. Yet ironically, it also brought about additional stress as one struggles to stay afloat while caring for a kid/pet at the same time.

Hmm... Whatever it is, they complete us. They had momentarily let us put behind our worries, bring out a smile in us and made us realize that those hollow thoughts or possessions are actually really nothing.

Although they may grow old, lose their innocence and even die. Hah~ That is my realist view. Their existence would definitely make our life more enriching and interesting.

Note: Nope, I did not keep any children or pets so there’s no way of any deaths in my place. This is a mere observation.
