Thank yew, thank yew, I'll be here all week!


You just made me laugh and my heart smile!!

Yes!! The turtle crossed the road to get to the other side. If you see him in the middle
of the road, and want to help him, don't take him back where he came from. Take him where he/she was headed.

In my frame of mind. I believe those were words of wisdom that I heard that day!!

IMPORTANT part of that story.

If you take the turtle back where it was coming from... it's just going to try again to go where it was headed.

Long story short -

Just help the turtle get across the road. Don't take it back from where it came from.
