Comparison Dog’s life and human life
I’m a middle-eastern refugee in Thailand, I’m here since 2001, while I became a refugee and U.N.H.C.R recognized me as a refugee I lost my human Identity, when I compare my current life with Dogs life here, always I wish to be a Dog, when I compare my situation with dog’s situation I’m jealous with dogs. There are many dogs living near my place. The dogs are ugly but everyone loves them. The dogs are stupid but everyone try to teach them. The dogs are dirty but everyone touches and hugs them. The dogs hate people and sometime bite them but everyone say “no problem”. The dogs are lazy and never work but they have home and enough food. The dogs are free to walk around and no one ask them about documentation or visa. dogs are happy because they are dog. In addition, much more items.
How about me! I am not ugly but no one loves me. I am very clever, inventor but no one helps me to study and research. I’m not dirty but no one hug me. I do not hate people, I love people and never hurt them but some people want to kill me. I’m not lazy, I can work 16 hours a day but I have no rights to work. I have no comfort place to sleep as dogs have it. I eat food once a day but dogs eat 3 times. I’m not free to walk around and travel but dogs are. I have teeth pain for 3 years, I have no money to repair it, but the dogs have free operation at good animal’s hospital. I have written rights (human rights) but dog haven’t. So I’m not happy that I’m human.
Is my life comparable with Dog’s life?

Dog’s ability and me
I can work but dog cant. I can teach good things to people but dog cant. I can help other people but dog cant. I can give good things to people but dog cant. I’m an inventor but dog isn’t. I have many worthy inventions but dog have nothing. I have wisdom but dog have no. and much more items. That why, I wish I was a dog.

This is perhaps one of the most enlightening and thought provoking questions I have seen on this website. Most people would never consider nor understand the thoughts of someone who is a refugee. In general, non-refugees live their daily lives in a state of unawareness with no view into the realm of others. I haven't an answer for you, except to say that I appreciate your candidness. With your gift for relating the life you are experiencing, perhaps you could begin writing and submit the articles for publication.

Some dogs are abused or mistreated, but many receive all of the love and attention they need just because they're cute. On top of that, they don't have to do anything and they don't have the capacity to worry like we do. Humans don't tend to treat each other very well.
