If animals could talk

Just Imagine! If animals could talk...

There are a number of movies where the animal characters talk full length...Dr. Do Little, Babe: Pig in the city, The Chronicles of Narnia, Ice Age etc., some delightful ones...some average ones.

But then, these are only movies. Imagine the familiar street dog round the corner that usually stares at us ...what would it say if it could speak? Well, the dog's body language and a single bark conveys us enough information to change our behaviour instantly but that's another point for discussion altogether!

God knows what it thinks of us and what it would tell us, if it could speak. May be we are psychologically safe with things remaining as they are...

I came across this nicely written blog by T.D. Fuhringer. It got me roaring with laughter.

Any interesting dialogues coming to your mind?

Its more of a comparison with babies when they wait to talk isn't it.

Some way animals do, as said in body language, brings out to understand what they want and its a language with love and signs.

- I can visualise the baby in cradle telling off mummy for not changing nappy on time :)

"its a language with love and signs."
-You touched a fine point here. This brings to my mind the great Vairamuthu in the movie மொழி.

இயற்கையின் மொழிகள் புரிந்துவிடின்
மனிதரின் மொழிகள் தேவையில்லை
இதயத்தின் மொழிகள் புரிந்துவிடின்
மனிதர்க்கு மொழியே தேவையில்லை

மனிதர், இயற்கை, இதயம், மொழி இவற்றை அவர் போல வேறு யாராலும் கோர்வையாக அமைக்க முடியாது!
