There are few things in life that a heaping helping of “cuteness” can’t solve. But when one of those few things finally happens along, it is good to have a backup plan. Take the present-day global band of microscopic marauders, for example. They are known to be just as susceptible to cuteness as anyone else.ContinueContinue reading “Being Brave with Bruce: Claws of Cuteness”

Being Brave with Bruce: Box Turtle Booty Shot
When you look good, you know it. You can feel it – deep in your gut. You can see it in the eyes of other (envious) beings as they pass by. You can know it by how you are always on the menu (even after you have submitted multiple requests to be removed). But thereContinueContinue reading “Being Brave with Bruce: Box Turtle Booty Shot”
Being Brave with Bruce: Looking Up
Spend enough time as a participating member in the food chain o’ life and you will find plenty of reasons to keep your eyes on the ground and your business to yourself. In other words, if no one knows you and no one sees you, no one can eat you. But that kind of lifeContinueContinue reading “Being Brave with Bruce: Looking Up”
Being Brave with Bruce: Simply Irresistible
There is no doubt that some beings pop out cuter than others. It doesn’t seem fair, but there it is. However, being perched at the very tippy top of the “cuteness chain” isn’t all sunshine and lady box turtles. It can also get you plated and served faster than you can say “your order isContinueContinue reading “Being Brave with Bruce: Simply Irresistible”
Happy Day O’ Treats From Our Flock to Yours!
Living in an interspecies flock pretty much guarantees you will run across some customs that seem more than a little (or a lot) strange. Take “Halloween,” for example. This event appears to happen in phases. During the “Disguise Phase,” the large featherless / shell-less beings all pretend to be somebody else. Whoever does the bestContinueContinue reading “Happy Day O’ Treats From Our Flock to Yours!”
Being Brave with Bruce: All That You Are
Just being born with a hard outer shell automatically means you are brave. After all, you wouldn’t come with extra built-in body armor if you didn’t need it! But not being covered in something warmer, cuddlier, often means that other beings miss perceiving the softer side of you. In other words, all they see ofContinueContinue reading “Being Brave with Bruce: All That You Are”
Being Brave with Bruce: Love You No Matter What
Living the wild life can be perilous, for sure. Perilous enough to tempt you to leave your wild days behind you for good. Yet here, it can be equally tempting to assume that by changing where or even how you live, you will never again land in a sticky situation. What is that they say?ContinueContinue reading “Being Brave with Bruce: Love You No Matter What”
Being Brave with Bruce: Window of the Soul
The decision to join an interspecies flock is not one to be taken lightly. There will be challenges. For sure. Take communication, for example. You won’t be able to have any – at least not at first. Because of this, every single aspect of flock life will seem to proceed at a glacial pace, withContinueContinue reading “Being Brave with Bruce: Window of the Soul”
Being Brave with Bruce: One of a Kind You
Being born with a cute curved shell and adorable orange cheek patches can make it seem like it would be so easy to be yourself. After all, who wouldn’t want to be you? The cuteness! The preciousness! The perfectness! But then again, it is all a matter of perspective. To some beings, just the sightContinueContinue reading “Being Brave with Bruce: One of a Kind You”
Being Brave with Bruce: Take a Big Deep Breath
If there is one thing tough times seem tailor-made to teach us, it might be simply this…. You can never get enough oxygen. It might not seem like a big deal to you-as-a-whole. But at the micro-cosmic level, when you start holding your breath, all those cells and protons and neutrons and neural connections reallyContinueContinue reading “Being Brave with Bruce: Take a Big Deep Breath”
