Sad-looking guinea pig touches your deep consciousness
A contrast between one guinea pig and the
other guinea pig eating greedily all the more makes us feel how ephemeral human
life (specifically guinea pig’s life) is.

Sad-looking
guinea pig touches your deep consciousness
This video showing a scene of how the two
guinea pigs are eating has been viewed 200,000 times only for two days. One
guinea pig is engrossed in eating given broccoli and bell pepper and the other
is absolutely still, looking squarely with round eyes wide open.
The video caption says: “On a Sunday
morning, you realize that your life might be moving in a direction contrary to
what you think.
The guinea pig looking
like tearing up looks straight at viewers. His (or her) eyes naturally
overlap with the glance of viewers. The guinea pig looks as if he
contemplates meaningless daily life.
A comment of a person who was given a real
shock to by this guinea pig: “I have turned 40. I
suddenly realize that I have idled away these twenty years!”
