KNOT TOOBY YOU NEEK 20 November 2006 I don’t like being unique any more – I think - but I don’t want to be like everyone else. I want everyone else to be like me. Then maybe I would understand people half as well as I understand animals and maybe people would understand me. - Owl |

Good morning, dear Diana! It's good to be individually unique, yet being aware of being part of the Whole. Often we don't understand traits of others that we have not yet analyzed within ourselves, but I don't actually like to analyze too much, I ask my heart to help me interpreting the strange aspects I can't approve of ... With animals it is easier because they communicate on deeper levels and we perceive it without the need of words. Great poetic offering, thought provoking! Love, Margherita |

Listen Dr. Doolittle, you don't worry about what other people think, okay? I figured out a long time ago that most people are too busy thinking about themselves anyhow. And now, you've gone and inspired me--y'see, there was this possum...and? Well maybe I'll just write the durned thing. But I swear that possum was talking to me!    |

You know, I think I'll take the animals and be happy that they understand me any day. The heck with the people - they rarely give me what the animals do. Trust. Devotion. Joy. Happiness. Unconditional Love. Laughter. and on and on. xoxoxo to you, darling Owl. Alison |

Thanks, Margherita. Very good advice, except that I love analysing. Smiles. Ah, Leoni. That is so sweet. Thank you. No wonder I like you so much and understand you so well. Karen, I love it, I love it, I love it - being called Dr Doolittle! Thank you. Thanks for the advice, too. You are very wise. I saw the title of your Possum Play for me as I was coming in here - I can't wait to go and read it! OF COURSE, the possum was talking to you! You are an ideal person for a possum to talk to - didn't you know? If I were a possum, I would target you to talk to! Glad I inspired you - I feel most honoured. See you at the Possum Play. Thank you, Yann. It is so good to be understood. I am so glad you have added it to your favourites. Thank you for that and your kind words. You have a lovely day too. Giggles and thanks, Alison. I agree with you, but it would be so nice to understand people and be understood by them - very easy in PIP, I must admit, but not so easy out in the world of the unPIPs. You should see my son and daughter-in-law's new puppy playing with their other two dogs. I was in fits of laughter tonight when I went their for Sunday night supper. - Owl |

Oh, Ida, you're a sweetie! Thanks and big smiles. Yes, Bobby, you're right (smile), but Yann did, though not in so many words. However, thanks for saying it too! Another more smile. - Owl |
