October 4th

Animal day

In English an animal is referred to as 'it' unless the relationship is personal (like a pet that has a name).

Sometimes we feel hunted

by our teachers and parents,

by our friends and even by ourselves.

It feels like we must rush

to keep up with the rest.

Give us a chance to develop ourselves at our own pace,

trusting we will get there, in our own good time.
