A DOG A MAN
Man is the animal most ignorant and presumptuous of the Earth!
The man is believed to be the only living being absolute master of planet.
The sand was playing with his feet.
Those little grains of sand rolled gently up to slip into their natural home.
So, I do not know how long, scrape the sand and my thoughts.
Like those microscopic particles, born from the rocks and fossils, my thoughts rolling in my head and then fell into the abode of my memories.
I was sitting on a platform of concrete, her body leaning forward, elbows resting on thighs that bore the weight of the head on my hands.
watched the sea, an imposing and majestic, his daughters rose up to hide the skyline.
"That's great the sea, "I thought!
"Maybe it is talking to me and I want to console with its impetus and its extraordinary strength."
I've always been in love with the sea.
I remember when I was a kid, I let myself be lulled by his embrace and his song that I distracted by the sound disrespectful of the people.
Then I slipped right into his lap and I was being caressed by her sons that I slide, along the body and on my skin, so began the ritual of love between me and the sea.
What a wonderful feeling that was!
While the activity of my intellect and imagination, were dragged from that periodic motion, punctuated the ebb and flow that govern the Moon and the Sun, a silent but real dream turned away that game.
With the corner of my eye I tried to peer into the party from whom felt that reality and feeling materialized by becoming an organic shape.
I turned slowly, to avoid being too abrupt to satisfy my curiosity, and that focalizzai gauge that slowly but surely, he approached me.
In favor of a light projected from an old lamp knew a dog.
I felt more confident about that, shortly thereafter, she would become a company, silent but faithful.
I sat waiting for approaching.
was impressive, but elegant in his slow but determined pace.
His mighty and majestic stature, was softened by a beautiful honey-colored hair shiny and thick. On his head he had a white stripe down the arcades to the eye. Stood out on that moonlight two beautiful green eyes, green as the sea and expressive as a child. When I looked at those
his green eyes, lowered his head and, crouching beside me, let caress.
He was lying with his head high and looked at the sea, then laid it on his legs and sighed.
was quiet, seemed to be going to sleep.
Apparently he had accepted my presence, but I would not have had any doubt.
then slid along the boulder of cement and sat down beside him, reaching its best position to be able to caress. As he stroked
went back to my dream trip, even more easier than flattery.
travels, watch the sea and the dog, I finally feel comfortable and satisfied.
of a sudden I broke that splendid monotony and started talking to my partner.
"What are you doing here alone? You're a bum or some man left you?
move your head forward, looked into his eyes and saw he had a sad look and dejected.
So I tried to console him by saying phrases to keep and full of affection.
Then I cried. "dear My friend, I think you're sadder than me. ... we're good! Tell me what happened to you, let's see if I can help. "
So I got up and took her in front of him remaining with the knees bent, I put my hands on his powerful jaws but elegant. The
raised my head and stroked.
He did not resist liking my gesture of tenderness and affection.
While I spoke, how can you talk to a dog, jumped up and sat staring straight into my eyes.
stayed there for a while ', then to my amazement and disbelief began to make sounds and then velar guttural sounds which over time became words.
I thought, with amazement "but this dog is talking about, is not it all possible, maybe I'll be asleep, sitting on the sand, and now I'm dreaming."
My companion, as if he had read my mind told me. "no man, you're not dreaming it's all true - you are frightened or pleased, because I read you some love for the people of my race, otherwise I would not ever come close to you and I would not have crouched beside you."
had guessed perfectly, in fact I was more pleased than frightened.
I thought then that the evening was getting interesting and engaging, one of those who do not you never imagine could happen.
"But then you talk for real," exclaimed the .
"Finally I can talk to a dog and I can get answers to many questions that until now have never had an answer, but lots of love."
" It 's the point " said the dog.
" You always want to force the answers but never try a feeling without words - feelings not words but deeds and actions, some hidden more vehement in its manifestation but sweet - do not have a rational meaning, perhaps for this , you men repudiated them, because it makes you like us, that is without reason. "
Those words fell over me like a mountain, were heavy and real.
My friend noticed my mood and kept talking.
" I'm sad because I am disappointed by you people - you have not understood anything of the wonderful secret of life - you feel the absolute masters of the world and want to own everything and everyone that you are not treating cohabitants of this planet, as we are animals, as are the plants, rocks, sea, rivers, lakes, volcanoes, and all that is part of this earth system - A unique essence of biological and chemical that was created by what you call God - we are, our nature, much closer to the Creator. That God who made fun of you with your religion and your alleged men of the Church who say they take his word, but they make only their political and personal interests, those who contribute to their hedonism satisfying the human need of absolute power on everything and everyone. For this you have invented wars and beyond, you have to justify the call of religion - Are you a clumsy imitators, so that you have called "the Almighty" because it is higher than you and you can not reach, and then see - He is not so high as you think you see that is not here between all of us, men and animals, plants and minerals, so the rest you have listed what he has created. - Instead, he is in all things of this beautiful planet that you, with your arrogance and conceit, you are destroying - now worry about your future without considering the other things that surround you and nourish your life - poor stupid and ignorant.
At that point he stopped and looked at me as if you could read in my eyes, something, a reaction that would shake the inner strings of my heart and my conscience.
I met a dog and I was ashamed of my kind of guy.
