Waking up to each new day full of unknowns is kind of scary.
It is also kind of an adrenaline rush.
As you bat your (adorable, red, whirling) box turtle eyes open each day, you truly have no idea if you will come face to face with the best of life….
Or the worst of life.
Or both.
It won’t be boring, whatever it is. That’s for sure.
But you need to be prepared either way.
Let’s say you open your eyes and spy a gorgeous three-toed lady box turtle headed your way. You know how choosy the lady turtles can be. It is time to get in the game – as in, ALL in.
So you turn up the charm. Your red eyes are on “full whirl.” Your orange cheek patches are blazing. You set your perfect nostrils to “stun.”
And that’s how it’s done, people.
But then again, let’s say you open your eyes and see a whole horde of infectious particles moving right towards you.
Yuck.
No thanks.
This is always the right moment to unpack that super-cool party trick you’ve been saving for just such a moment as this.
With your most focused stare and incredible mind-melding powers, you let the marauders know: “this is not the box turtle you are looking for.”
