“Crocodile,” he called. “I have a treat for you.”
Crocodile swam over and smiled. Spider Monkey will make a delicious lunch.
“You have a treat for me.” Crocodile smiled.
“I discovered a new animal. There are so many, they’ve become pests. I thought you might like to try some.” Spider Monkey's eyes twinkled.
“Bring them a little closer,” said Crocodile.
“This is as close as I can get,” replied Spider Monkey.
“Don’t worry about falling in. I’ll carry you ashore if you fall.” Crocodile’s eyes sparkled.
WHO DO YOU TRUST? WHO DO YOU AUTOMATICALLY BELIEVE? WHO ARE YOU A YES MAN TO?
Love the photo and little story! Too cute.
ReplyDeleteAs for me, I'm entirely too trusting.
I trust my wife and my family. Everybody else needs to fill out an application! :)
ReplyDeleteKristi--I'm right there with you...The crocodiles on the Rio Tarcoles river were awesome!
ReplyDeleteDL--Funny!
I think the older I get, the less trusting I get. Love the sparkling eyes!
ReplyDeleteSusan--REALLY! Wow...
ReplyDeleteDoes that mean you are Team Spider Monkey?
I've been let down too many times so I'm sticking with the spider monkey :o) Though, I think crocodiles are handsome dudes!
ReplyDeleteNiki--Spider Monkey wins in the end. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the story!
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with DL Hammons. Everybody needs to fill in an application before I would trust them - sadly. Live and learn :)
What a fun post, Sharon. I tend to be too trusting a lot of the time, but I completely trust my family and many of my church family members. :-)
ReplyDeleteWendy--Thanks...I wonder what your application would look like???
ReplyDeleteShannon--You are just like I would expect you to be. Anyone who is as positive and giving as you are has to be trusting. :)
Hi
ReplyDeleteOooh I don't think I trust either of them but I do have a healthy respect for both!
I'm hoping there's A Third Way!
:-)
Take care

Kitty--It's a tale of a tail...Spider Monkey learns something. :) Have a good one!
ReplyDeleteI would say my husband, but he's such a teaser and sometimes I never know if he's kidding or not! :)
ReplyDeleteOther than that, definitely my mom.
I'm not very trusting in general, but sometimes I meet somebody and know I can trust them right off the bat. Like you, Sharon. :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute. I think I'm too trusting of people, and not trusting enough of things that happen in the world - hey I wonder why? LOL Great post!
ReplyDeleteKelly--Is that on everything? I wouldn't trust my Mum or my husband on my writing. Mum would be too nice and my husband, admittedly, wouldn't get it. He's too grown up.
ReplyDeleteAmy--I trust you too! You are right, you can often tell on your first connection with a person if you can trust them.
Erica--It's easier to trust the people you know and see than the ones you don't. :) Glad you liked the post.
