MORPH MASTERS

Although I write my blog three times a week, I still have a lot of time to watch humans.  I’m a dog.  What else am I going to do?  You can only chase tail and toys so many times in a day.

It’s interesting how humans can morph into something new or different… like a butterfly.

There is this exotic looking human on a TV show called: The Good Wife.  Her name is Kalinda.  (I’d like to see her eyes on a dog or a cat.  I just know they would look so cool.)

On Tuesday night's show, Kalinda said, “I didn’t like who I was so I changed me.”

Humans don’t like their hair so they cut it and color it.  They don’t like their job so they get a new one.  They don’t like their job so they get a new one.  Jet (my foster mom) says that America is the ultimate melting pot of morph masters – humans changing into something new.  Jet says it’s more amazing than a butterfly morphing out of a caterpillar to see humans make equally dramatic changes.  Some of her favorites: a depression-era crop picker who morphed into a college teacher (her mom), a guy living on the street who became a successful stockbroker. (See Pursuit of Happyness).

When humans make such incredible changes in their life, are they running to something or running away from something?  Jet says it doesn't matter what motivates them, only that they take action and change.

So, here’s my lesson of the day… If butterflies can morph, humans can too so if you don’t like your life, change it.   

Okay, the question of the day is from Cleveland asked:  Dear Parker, I want to know: is there anything better in life than a friend?”

Dear Cleveland:

Not much. 

…And I think the otters in the video below would agree with me.
