Not everything I “find” on a page is an animal. The other day I found a rose, and on this page, I found a lady with flowers, her expression showing us that maybe stopping to smell the flowers and taking that moment for a quick meditation, just may be what the “doctor” ordered.

Albert
Albert was used to being on his own, living free as a bird with no worries in the world. Then he met Esmerelda.
