In Memory of my dear friend Rose Rauf
Have you ever seen a baby porcupine?

Fable of the porcupine. It was the coldest winter ever. Many animals died because of the cold. The porcupines, realizing the situation, decided
to group together. This way they covered and protected
themselvec; but the quills of each one wounded their closest
companions even though they gave off heat to each other.
After awhile, they decided to distance themselves one
from the other and they began to die, alone and frozen.
So they had to make a choice: either accept the quills of
their companions or disappear from the Earth. Wisely,
they decided to go back to being together. This way they
learned to live with the little wounds that were caused by the
close relationship with their companion, but the most
important part of it, was the heat that came from the others.
This way they were able to survive. Moral of the
story: The best relationship is not the one that brings
together perfect people, but the best is when each individual
learns to live with the imperfections of others and can admire
the other person’s good qualities.
The Moral of the story!
LEARN TO LOVE THE PRICKS IN YOUR LIFE.

I have relationships like that – they turn out to be pretty good pricks, and you want those pricks on your side!
