The Squirrel Who Wanted to Be the Sun

And get illumination

Once upon a time, there was a squirrel, Gwiñver, who was never satisfied. He just wanted to live every moment without thinking too much about winter.

His mother, to bring him back to reality, said to him, There’s no food in winter. How will you survive? He answered that she was too square, he wanted to spend very little time for his food. His ambition was to work on himself and reach enlightenment as a perfect sun “cercle”.

Looking at the sun, he thought that he would like to be the sun. Sun is warm and round and shines all time. So he visualized himself as the sun, he felt the warmth inside and so in winter, he would just have to think about the sun to be warm. Yes, but what about food?

He visualized himself so strongly that he became a squircle Publish button on the Medium website and got enough food for thought.

So we do not always get what we “whish” for, but the most important thing is to wish for it.
