Into every life a little good news….and a little bad news….may fall.
Good news, of course, is for basking in (and eating, if it looks the least bit edible).
Bad news is a whole different matter.
Some types of bad news is particularly….um….infectious.
Sometimes you may get a really big, bad batch of it – enough to infect a whole planet!
When this happens, you need both basking and blessing.
Nature and nurture.
After all, nothing kills off pesky microscopic particles like basking in the rays of the big fiery golden orb overhead.
And nothing kills off fears like basking in the love of your slavishly devoted large shell-less assistant, who insists on following you everywhere and making sure you come to no harm.
