My unusual feelings towards Snails...

Snail.

As according to Wikipedia, due to its slowness, the snail has traditionally been seen as a symbol of laziness.

However, personally, i find it is a creature having very great determination!
It may be moving slowly, takes up tons of time to reach its target/destination.. it doesn't give up easily and carried on moving.

That's what i called : Determination!

It was raining for the past few morning, and when i was walking towards the pickup point of the company's transport one morning.......



Nothing much about this tree, right?


Walked closer, and i found a snail !!

(Laugh at me) I stood there and watched it climbed slowly up the tree bark. =)
I am very amazed at how it can travel from the pavement, onto the grass, and up the tree bark, with its "home". (the shell on its back)

And i went Youtube to find more videos..

The "Ugly Duckling" - Snails version



And (inserts the girls screaming) 周杰倫 - 蝸牛


With this, i want to say sorry to the few snails i accidentally stepped on. *Bows sorry*
Now people, slow down at times to check for them and also, dont be too stressed !

Life is stressful enough, it is better to slow down sometimes to take a look at the little creatures or happenings around you. 

Snails, i salute you! =)

  2. when we move slowly, we are able to see more things, and learn more things.

    when we move too fast, we often missed out a lot of wonderful things in our life.

    therefore, it is good to do work as slow as a snail sometimes in our life...
