I found this little piece of wonderfulness and love to see it every day. Turtles being the universal symbol of perseverance even when things look hopeless.
I love the story of the Tortoise and the Hare...although I am not sure who I most resemble. I love that the tortoise doesn't give up even though it looks as though the hare will have won before he even gets underway. I love that he is undeterred by the taunting and bragging, but quietly and consistently works towards his end goal. It is clear to me that it is a race for himself and not against anyone else or for anyone else. To finish a task you set out to do is a great accomplishment indeed.
So here is to all of our turtle goals...the ones that seem to creep along centimeter by centimeter...just keep crawling. Slow and Steady wins the race.
