Lovely- one of my very first memories of loving whales and all things in the natural world was putting this plastic record included in an issue of National Geographic magazine when I was a young kid on my record player. I layed on the floor and drifted into the ocean. Magical. Blissful.

β€œFrog,” said Toad, β€œif I wash my dishes right now, then I will not have to wash them tomorrow, will I?”

β€œNo,” said Frog. β€œYou will not have to.”

Toad washed and dried his dishes. He put them in the cupboard.

Crown shyness. Pretty Zen, no? Stare. Lose yourself. Come back though.

Clear and well worded! However the mere fact that it must be explained to so many ignorant Americans is very saddening.

I have to start having more fun. Have to. There is no point to any of this without fun. Zero reason. It's not a luxury, it's mandatory. It's as important as eating. I've been neglecting it and it shows and I'm going to do better.
