Do not forget to return
To the stillness
Away from the world
Away from its wars
Away from the screams
Of those you love.

Return there
From time to time
Wrap yourself
In the silence
Breath deep and listen
To your own needs

Close second is this one. Effectively the Kirby of frogs that will eat all so long as it fits. Cute, but deadly.

Out of the batch, I like this one. He's just a cute little guy that has the "high ground" (i.e. staying on logs and low bushes).

Oh boy, it was bound to happen. Overweight man talking about self-discipline = fat phobic comment. I'm still happy about the short and hopefully get people to think more about self-discipline though.
