Tortoise

This morning, along with a group of giggling toddlers, I took a peek at a tortoise. A little one, barely two months old, palm size, he was dashing about cutely in his little glass box. He was remarkably fast for a two month old his size, it is quite believable he beat the hare ;)

The lady next to me told me that he will grow quite heavy and will live upto a hundred and fifty years. Amazing! This little tortoise will live to see what we make of this world a century and a half from now. I wonder if he or anyone else will remember this indifferent ejournal writer then
