It was the coldest winter ever. Many
animals died because of the cold.
The porcupines, realizing the situation,
decided to group together to keep warm. This way they covered & protected
themselves; but the quills of each one wounded their closest companions. After
a while, they decided to distance themselves one from the other and they began
to die, alone & 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. They learned to live with the little wounds caused
by the close relationship with their companions in order to receive the heat
that came from the others. This way they were able to survive.
The best relationship is not the one that
brings together perfect people, but when each individual learns to live with
the imperfections of others & can admire the other person’s good qualities.
Life is short, and it is up to you to
make it sweet.
