happy sunday

in the story the golden compass, the people all have these sort of deamons or physical representations of themselves in animal form. these animals express your moods and people's animals can communicate with eachother. your animal can change from a bird to a lizard to a cat until you hit puberty-- then it stays the same animal for the rest of your life.

anyway, i think that it is true that our animals do take on and express the characteristics of their owner... which is cool. and interesting.
