Living Like Weasels

In the story Living Like Weasels, the author, Anne, expresses her desire to live a more "fulfilling" life. She compares her desire to that of a weasel; talking about how they will do anything to survive and take each moment as their last. I found the passage to be quite repetitive in the sense that the author kept talking about the weasels way of life. Some of the information given was unnecessary but overall, the story did teach it's readers an important lesson. Although the story was hard to read, solely because of the fact that weasels, to me are uninteresting, it served it's purpose. Anne, describes that after watching the weasel she wants to learn how to "live" the way it does. She describes how she hasn't taken all that life has to offer. I found this story to really change my perspective on life itself. I never thought a comparison between the desire to "live in the moment" and weasels would make sense, but the author made extremely valid points and contrasting thoughts. I really did enjoy what this story has to offer because it has taught me that like the weasel, I should value each moment as if it's my last and do whatever I can to make my life the best it can be.
