After my last post, I figured I needed to go a little lighter.
I enjoyed sharing my thoughts about perseverance, but my head still hurts from it. I haven't done that much calculus & physics in years.
So, let me tell you a story that's a little less liver-and-onions and a little more hot-fudge-sundae:
Two robins gorge themselves on worms after a hard spring rain, so much so that it seems too much effort to fly all the way back up to the tree-top perch.
Feeling brave, the first robin boasts, "That was DEEE-Licious... I'm so full I can hardly stand it! Whaddya say we just kick back a while right here on this grassy spot & let some of these worms digest... Besides, we wouldn't want to cramp up!"
The second robin, noticing the warm sun peeking through the clearing clouds replies, "I guess we could do that: just sort of bask in that nice, warm sun." Looking around, he continues, "I think we'll be safe here for a while."
So both robins stretch out to maximize their sun, then kick their feet up on some small twigs to drink in the whole experience. Before too long, the massaging warmth & their full bellies put them fast asleep.
Without any fanfare, a pair of snakes sneak up on the robins &... GULP!
As the 2 stuffed snakes slither away, one turns to the other & says, "Ahhh... I LOVE Baskin Robbins!"
See y'all next time!
