okai in this case, curiosity killed the terrapin. Literally.
I'm sorry for using these terrapins as an example.
but the situation is really apt, you see.
okai that, AND cos there's something abt terrapins that irk me. =/
Right, So at work there are 3 terrapins that we are to ship overseas.
And the week before they are to be shipped one of em
finally managed to climb out of the container it was in.
The terrapin ended up dead at the bottom floor of the 7 story building ._.
Morbid, but here's the lesson.
(okai but I can't deny I didn't laugh and think, "wow stupid terrapin". sorry =S)
anyhoo, lesson learned - Boundaries are there for a reason
preachy huh, but true isn't it?
the terrapin had TWO boundaries, it crossed both, and it died.
first, it was kept in the container to protect it from being squished.
second, the container was in a house so that it won't be squished.
it crossed both and it was squished._.
and funny thing is like us, the terrapin wasn't aware of the dangers it faced outside the boundaries.
so it kept tryin to claw its way out.
and when it finally did... (everybody now,)
it got squished.
Not sayin that we're anything like terrapins,
or that if we cross boundaries we'll get squished..haha.
but the consequences are definitely real.
oh and one more lesson,
(but before this, know that it's in terrapins to claw at every lousy container they're in to escape)
okai so, in the same container was another terrapin that
was sick when it was young so it's extremely small compared to the other terrapin
that got squished.
so if you think of it, it's size was kinda like the blemishes we humans have.
But ! that in the end, saved the terrapins life,
haha cos it wasn't tall enough to climb outta the container.
okai so the lesson to this is - that things might seem unfair or tough in the
beginning but well God has his reasons, and it'll work out in the end.
if it hasn't worked out, then it's not the end.
unlike the first terrapin. ;)
