The reason why I like the shark is because of its ability to explore the world's oceans. Wouldn't it be amazing to understand what lies beyond the surface in the outermost reaches of the seas. What treasures and artifacts we could find?
I did not choose the shark for its flaws; I would choose it for its abilities to explore new possibilities and opportunities. Sure a shark eats fish, but don't we all? Sure, a shark harms humans, but didn't we at some point in our lives?
The animal I chose is not me personally. I choose what my life will be from this point forward. I choose how I will act. I choose to forgive others.I choose the good in life and I treasure what I have left.
