Where had you gone

If your pet could talk, what would be the first thing it says?

I’m a bit of a lazy person, and I am someone who tends to get lost in his own world. it’s a big enough task for me just to keep my own things organized. I probably shouldn’t get a pet, as I likely wouldn’t be able to take proper care of it.

Because keeping a pet is never just about cuddles and companionship, it’s a responsibility that demands patience, consistency, and care. A pet is like a living mirror: it reflects back the love, discipline, and attention you give. The challenge lies in balancing affection with responsibility.

But my grandfather was fond of keeping cows; he used to look after them personally. We had a cow at home that was with us for about 15 or 16 years. She was a lovely gentle cow, completely docile and was white in color.

I remember that when I visited the village this time, I went to see that cow just as I did the other members of the household. When I stepped closer and stroked her back, she turned her head and looked at me, as if asking, “Where had you gone for such a long time?”

    Going to see the cow the same way you’d go and see the other members of the household says everything about how your grandfather kept her. Fifteen or sixteen years is a long relationship. And that turn of the head when you stroked her back — animals really do ask that question without needing any words.

    A pet personally would be great for you but obviously consider your work load and availability, pets are great fun, I think a person is more grounded when they share their lives with animals
