emperor of the south
last night, the boy and i partook of the march of the penguins. not that i needed any reevaluation of my love for this creature, but this film did introduce compassion, strength and overall unwavering sensibilities that i previously was unaware emperor penguins possessed. let’s just say that my respect-o-meter went into the red for said species.
i won’t divulge any penguin secrets here, but just know that the newborn chicks are damn cute. plain and simple.
after seeing the movie, though, it does make me wish humankind was a little more dignified, a smidge more dedicated to the cause and a bit more contentious of the wonder that is life.
