河馬跟烏龜

今天晚上跟老師聊天，聊到了上一輩子的事情。
我跟姊姊以前玩筆仙，筆仙告訴我，我前一輩子是一隻河馬。
老師聽了之後，寄了一封email給我，我看了一直笑，一直笑！實在太可愛了！
上一輩子如果我真的是一隻河馬，
這一輩子我又那麼喜歡烏龜，
那這些照片不就是我跟烏龜散步的時候，被偷拍的嗎？
跟大家分享一下，讓你們也笑笑！他的故事也很美喔！
NAIROBI (AFP) - A baby hippopotamus that survived the tsunami waves on the Kenyan coast has formed a strong bond with a giant male century-old tortoise, in an animal facility in the port city of Mombassa , officials said.

The hippopotamus, nicknamed Owen and weighing about 300 kilograms (650 pounds), was swept down Sabaki River into the Indian Ocean , then forced back to shore when tsunami waves struck the Kenyan coast on December 26, 2004 before wildlife rangers rescued him.

"It is incredible. A-less-than-a-year-old hippo has adopted a male tortoise, about a century old, and the tortoise seems to be very happy with being a 'mother'," ecologist Paula Kahumbu, who is in charge of Lafarge Park , told AFP.
"After it was swept and lost its mother, the hippo was traumatized. It had to look for something to be a surrogate mother. Fortunately , it landed on the tortoise and established a strong bond. They swim, eat and sleep together," the ecologist added. "The hippo follows the tortoise exactly the way it follows its mother. If somebody approaches the tortoise, the hippo becomes aggressive, as if protecting its biological mother," Kahumbu added.

"The hippo is a young baby, he was left at a very tender age and by nature, hippos are social animals that like to stay with their mothers for four years," he explained.

This is a real story that shows that our differences don't matter much when we! need th e comfort of another. We could all learn a lesson from these two creatures of God. Look beyond the differences and find a way to walk the path together.
