A Lesson In Survival...!

I figured that it was time I posted another survival topic, since I haven't done that in a while.

This lesson is given to us by Mother Nature, who just happens to be one of the best teachers around, in my opinion! It's simple and yet effective!

Moral of the Porcupine

It was the coldest winter ever. Many animals died because of the cold.

The porcupines, realizing the situation, decided to group together to keep warm. This way they covered and protected themselves; but the quills of each one wounded their closest companions.

After a while, they decided to distance themselves one from the other and they began to die, alone and frozen. So they had to make a choice: either accept the quills of their companions or disappear from the Earth.

Wisely, they decided to go back to being together. They learned to live with the little wounds caused by the close relationship with their companions in order to receive the heat that came from the others. This way they were able to survive.

The best relationship is not the one that brings together perfect people, but when each individual learns to live with the imperfections of others and can admire the other person's good qualities.

The moral of the story is:

Just learn to live with the Pricks in your life!

I'm going to be changing up the blog list a bit today. Going to remove some of those blogs that haven't posted in a while to make room for others that are more current! I hope this doesn't cause any inconvenience to anyone, but it's time to do it.

Coffee in the kitchen this morning. It looks like rain and I don't want you all to get wet!
