I have a twirly whirly bendy pink drinking straw with Piglet clutching the top end of it. It is my favourite straw and I use it to drink my favourite drinks in my favourite wine glass.
I picked this straw because I like Piglet. Of all the Winnie the Pooh characters, Piglet is the one with the smallest frame but the biggest heart. I like Piglet because he is often scared and afraid and terrified and frightened. And I admire Piglet for always admitting that he is scared and afraid and terrified and frightened. Because I think that takes a lot of courage.
Piglet’s vulnerability touches me. It makes me want to reach out and help him. It makes me want to stretch myself to be a better person. And I suspect, another person’s vulnerabilities can often bring out the best in us.
So think Piglet, and be brave.
