Old Major called us together tonight to share with us a strange dream he had the previous night. What was it about? Are there more carts to pull tomorrow? I can't wait! :) It turned out that Old Major's dream was nothing about pulling carts :( Old Major said," Our lives are miserable, laborious and short." But why? I love pulling carts :)
Old Major told us that," The produce of our labour is stolen from us by human beings." Hmmm... Although Farmer Jones drinks the cows' milk, he gives them grass to eat every day. But yes! Old Major is right. Those eggs are precious children of the chickens. And the poor pigs... I heard that they end up on toast!
Man is the only real enemy we have. I asked Clover what she thought about this. She told me not to worry and trust in the wisdom of Old Major. REBELLION! ( Wait... What is a rebellion?)
Later, Old Major taught us that :
- Whatever goes upon two legs, is an enemy.
- Whatever goes upon four legs or have wings, is a friend.
- We must not come to resemble him.
- Do not adopt his vices.
- No animal must ever live in a house, or sleep in a bed, or wear clothes, or drink alcohol, or smoke tabacco, or touch money, or engage in trade.
- No animal must tyrannise over its own kind.
- No animal must ever kill any other animal.
- All animals are equal.
Oh I'm so tired... Zzzzzzz
