one of nature's truly wonderful specimens is the sloth.. delightfully immobile and pure of heart.. this character has been immortalized on screen by sid (of 'ice age' fame) as a supposedly smooth talking (with the lisp ofcourse) and the eternally bumbling nature where all he ends up down is spiral into self destruction whether its lighting a fire or cleaning a todder's diaper.. sloths' are wonderfully simple.. 1 mantra in life.. live slow.. move slow.. njoy life.. i love sloths!
2- and 3-toed species exist... and all they're good for are for latching onto branches and tree barks and staying there till needed.. to the fast paced and mundane idiots, the almost calculatively and painfully slow nautre might appear nerve-wracking.. but to me, they're the true decoders of life's matrix... whats the hurry!? and they dont jus move slow.. everything about them is slow... (read: perfect).. even the digestion underway in their stomach takes a month to complete per meal.. (ahh!!).. (titbit: their maximum velocity: 0.54 m/s)
sitting in one place, sometimes drooling to one side, slouched, staring into nothingness, immobile, dazed, bored, lazy, yet winning the rat race the sloth way!... sloth isnt a noun, its an adjective.. its me
i cannot fathom the reasons 'they' would categorize sloth as a deadly sin?.. huh? it shuld be a target for them zen masters.. the ultimate level of higher consciousness.... to the dumb layman, u look like ur wasted and pure bored of existence.. but to the master, u hav that aura of peace and tranquillity around u... ur in control and are an authority in all matters immobile.
sloth rules!
i agree....
