Why Mr. Lizard?

I walked into my bathroom a few days ago, and out of the corner of my eye I saw sudden movement. There on the wall, a lizard was dashing across in sheer panic and when it reached the 90 degree joint between that wall and the next, the lizard literally leapt off the wall and flew to the next side. Just as quickly, he scrambled out of the nearest window: all this in about 3 seconds. I just stood there watching the memory of what had just happened in my mind, and I couldn't help but wonder why is it the lizard got so scared. Did he have a bad experience with another human before? Or was it just instinct to get far far away from anything that's higher up the food chain? I don't know. I felt sorry for him. I hope he didn't damage himself in all the haste. I was ashamed to think he was afraid of me. Then I kind of felt sorry for myself too, because it was then I realized that I wished he would stay...so I can stare at him...maybe we could have become friends. Oh well...

Hmmm, the Lizard was probably worried you would eat it, but they are not known for having overly large brains. I think it was plain instinct.

Lizards are normally very shy animals and don't have many human friends. The reason has mainly to do with not wanting to end up as celebrity handbags or shoes. I personally wouldn't want to end up as a handbag, or worse a shoe. Though, when you think about it, most of us end us as fertilizer so why not be different and help step on or carry something in our death. Immortality can be just a step away - what a thought :)

Wow...Ive never heard of 'Gauli Shastra' before... it sounds pretty interesting. Now I'll be sure to look out for where a lizard falls :) It mightn't be that crazy after all...

aka my friend! your train of thoughts is profound :p ... I'll just have to assume that Mr. Lizard had no desire to become 'immortal'. I wonder if anyone will wear my skin

People have always been preoccupied with how things look on the surface and that's because beneath the surface looks something like pluming gone mad. I have a feeling human skin for handbags, shoes and designer luggage will never catch on, because you never know when dirt will be uncovered about the former owner of the skin (and not just on the skin). Also, I can't imagine who would want my skin on ebay. Can you imagine how embarrassed I would be when word reaches the hereafter that there were no bids for my skin? I doubt heaven would take this revelation in a good light.

By the way, I understand there are already many bidders for your skin :))

Awww, babe how cute! :-) I believe that is in the instinct of lizards to move quickly when they sense anything "different" or "unfamiliar" approaching. Yes, you're right about the fact that they are lower in the food chain, which is why God blessed them with a quick and agile body to escape anything which may potentially be dangerous. The same concept applies to rabbits and other "smaller" animals. As rabbits are vegetarians, they are constantly alert to the fact that they are fair game or prey to many predators. Therefore they possess strong hind legs to hop or run very fast.

I thought this entry to be so fascinating babe! And by the way, Michael loves lizards for some reason, and he always stops to talk to them when we're at school or outside in nature. Surprisingly one day a lizard stopped as well, and while Michael and I were talking to him/her, he/she dipped its head as if to imply he/she was actually listening to us! It was amazing! hehe. So babe, I encourage you to try to "befriend" or become more familiar with your friendly neighborhood creatures, you never know what joy may come out of such encounters :-D

da lizard story was kool...interestin...first time i saw that sum1 wanted to hav a lizard friend...and was missin a lizzy....dats new...lol...so i felt sorry for a lizard more than once cuz its like i watched it die in pain, squirming, squiggling an the worse part is that i killed it...by accident of course...has it ever happened that a door is open and u decide to go into that particular room (say its the washroom =P) and u close the door with a haste and then realize that the door didn't close properly and that something was obstructing it...yes an thats wen u open it to see wha it was, only to see that u squashed a lizard and its in silent pain and u can see it dyin....i felt so sad, and guilty and i may hav had tears in my eyes...i mean i didnt mean to kill it...but i guess that was the karma the lizard had to go thru wit me, an i guess i had to feel compassion and hav some sort of feelin for a lizard so i guess it was a learning process...maybe it sacrificed its life so that i could realize how even something so tiny can make emotions and feelings arise...and most of all feel that connection that yes God is in all and nothing can happen without Him...we're all connected, yeah even in the little tings and inanimate things too...so next time u c an ant dont just kill it for spite, its God too, if it dont bother u, dont bother it...cuz it wud b like ur hurtin God, although God doesnt feel hurt and pain but u know what i mean rite? lol....bye
