Hi Michelle 🦆

Una pregunta linda, Patricia! Mainly it's the silly part of the silly goose. Silliness is playfulness and childish energy. Playfulness, in turn, is presence and connection, both with yourself and those you play with. Playfulness, playing, being our true natural selves and doing what our hearts call us to do—this is what we exist for. Everything we do (in a conscious world, at least), we do for this purpose. Then there's another aspect of the goose which I aspire to be more of: a fearless warrior and protector of the tribe. Geese take turns watching over their gaggle and looking out for threats while looking for food, so that each individual can eat in peace while trusting that they're watched over. And most importantly, the goose never hesitates to eliminate anything it perceives as a threat to their kin. All those memes and funny videos about geese attacking people are demonstrations of their fearlessness and love; they don't attack out of spite or for fun, they defend through loving anger when needed. As a friend described them, they have long fuses, but the explosion is massive. Hope that answers your question~ 🪿😊

Nice to see Uruguayan representation! I studied a semester abroad there two years ago, wish I could've seen more than just Montevideo though 🧉

I learnt to appreciate it with time, yes. They taught us on the first day of the semester, "your first mate is your worst mate"; this was true, as far as I'm concerned 😅
