Melodies of a Tortoise #1

Once upon a time, there lived a tortoise. The tortoise loves to sing. It sings when it's happy. It sings when it's sad. It even anticipated it's friends' praises after hearing it's song.

"Oh, how nice would it be to share my melodies", thought the little tortoise.

One night, after finishing it's tortoise snack, it decided to upload it's singing on Instagram. That was the first attempt of that little tortoise trying to stick it's head out. But perhaps, that little tortoise had been too accustomed to the environment of it's dark comfy shell, or perhaps it had been a long time since miss little tortoise got out of her hibernation to see the real world. There was a little too much exposure, a little too much lights, and a little too much attention.  Those were more than enough for miss little tortoise to bear. 

Miss little tortoise didn't know how to react. Miss little tortoise does not feel up to reacting yet. So timid little miss tortoise retracted it's head way back in, and decided to sing inside it's little shell once again. 

Until when it decides to squint into the light, it will continue singing in it's safe haven. 

“Try to be like the turtle at ease in your own shell.” —Bill Copeland

Song description:

Bapa Yang Kekal (A forever father) refers to a God in heaven who's always there for his children.  As it is written in Matthew 7:7 "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you."
