Wearing Your Heart on Your Sleave

It's amazing how animals are so forward with their emotions. They have no problem showing you how they feel. If they want to be around you or sit by you, they do it without wondering if you'll reject them or be creeped out by them. We also, do the same with animals.

But yet... we are afraid to do it with each other. There is a fear. That fear due to prior experience and the fact that we know that we aren't as accepted as animals are. It sucks, but it also makes it that much more rewarding to be accepted.

Then again, there are those animals that are shy at first, just as we tend to be. Then there are animals that love everyone. Then there are the ones that push everyone away.

Which brings me to another thing we share in common with animals and showing emotion. We all aren't afraid to show when we don't like another person or what they are doing. It's so much easier to put someone out of your life than it is to bring someone in. Perhaps because we know what's to come with that action. We know that we're pushing the other being away. When trying to bond with another, you have no idea how things will turn out.

Interaction... it's a beautiful thing.
