Yes, I do appreciate that. I’d go one step further than ‘having a simple life’ and say, I would rather be a (loved) dog. They don’t stress out about anything - they’re blissfully unaware that nuclear war may break out any moment, they don’t worry about being able to buy food, pay rent, keep the utilities on, or even need a car. They’re perfectly content just barking at stuff, sniffing around the yard, or chewing on a toy - every day is easy and fun for them. And all they do is look adorable and get snuggled and petted. That would be such a better life than what we humans have, IMO.
