~:[CH15 - Day 58]:~ Be a Go-chan
Many have heard the story of Punch. The monkey who lost his mother and wasn't accepted by the others had so many feelings sympathetic towards him. They were upset at how he was being treated and adored how he adapted by making a connection with a stuffed animal. Many lines up to catch a glimpse of this money and story after story, started coming out. From the care from the zookeeper and the bond between them to the new information of an adult monkey accepting Punch. On a day that I spent resting, I thought about Punch and how many people in this world just want to be accepted. Sometimes, the way they go about it doesn't align with how we do things, but I hope we, myself included, can open our eyes and our hearts when we see this happening. I hope we can be a Go-chan or zookeeper to the Punches the world. Those who are outcasts, but only wanted to be loved. We often can see it when we look at animals or when we are watching shows and movies, but sometimes we miss it when it's right there. I'll remind myself of this story regularly to help me remember we must always be willing to be that comforting and welcoming one to those who just want to feel accepted and loved.
