Joyas Voladoras

The excerpt that we read was pretty deep, and usually I try not to dwell on these lessons, because there are too many of them, and you can never really prepare yourself for the future without knowing exactly what will happen. However, in this story, (I'm going to call it a story because I forget the official name) the message is that if you're too reckless in your decisions, and completely throw yourself at whatever you feel like, you'll live a short life, like the humming bird. However, if you never do anything or go anywhere significant, you'll lead a long boring life, like a sea turtle. Therefore, you want to find a perfect medium, where you gain new experiences and have fun, but you don't burn yourself out or overdose at a frat party that your neighbor sneaked you into. So, in conclusion, be reasonable, but don't be reckless, either.
