Australia Zoo

I have just been at Australia Zoo. And it was mega uber awesome fun!
Though I have discovered something, and I am quite glad to have come to this realisation:

Humans are more important than animals.

I do not deny the fact that animals are important and that we should look after them, however, I have decided within myself that humans are more important.
Now, I am not a people person. But I do know the worth of fellow human beings to my sanity, and to my joy and passion for life and for correcting and solidifying opinions.
I also want them to come to heaven with me. Otherwise heaven would be lonely. And who wants to spend eternity without other humans? God is sufficient, but people add to the wholeness of God. Each person on earth reveals a part of God. And we don't want missing pieces to miss out.
Animals on the other hand do not have spirits like we humans do. I love animals, and indeed we have been called to look after the flora and fauna while on the earth, but spending all of our money on saving animals, seems a bit ridiculous when put in the light of eternity, and other peoples lives!

While I was there, I bought a soft-toy Wombat, because I decided that wombats were one of my favourite Australian mammals. (this after seeing the poor thing get weighed!)

Then I realised that I just spent money on a soft toy that is not useful for well, anything really.
I could have bought a pen, or at least just a plan postcard which may or may not be used, and at least in the long run, be recyclable. But I didn't, because I am fickle, and wanted a really soft wombat toy. Though I am learning slowly that though I like to horde, and love getting souvenirs, it doesn't mean that they have to be useless things to sit on the mantle for eternity!
oh well! So that was my learnings from an amazing day at Australia Zoo. Thanks team, and God Bless you Irwin family for what you are doing for this planet!
