This came by from some friends today. Several good lessons contained within a nice story.
After losing his parents, this 3 year old orangutan
was so depressed he wouldn’t eat and didn’t
respond to any medical treatments. The
veterinarians thought he would surely die from
sadness. The zoo keepers found an old sick
dog on the grounds in the park at the zoo where
the orangutan lived and took the dog to the
animal treatment center. The dog arrived
at the same time the orangutan was there being
treated. The 2 lost souls met and have been inseparable ever since.
The orangutan found a new reason to live and each
always tries his best to be a good companion to
his new found friend. They are together 24
hours a day in all their activities.
They live in Northern California where swimming is
their favorite past time, although Roscoe (the
orangutan) is a little afraid of the water and
needs his friend’s help to swim.
Together they have discovered the joy and laughter in life and the value of
friendship.
They have found more than a friendly shoulder to lean on.
Long Live Friendship!!!!!!!
I don’t know, some say life is too short,
others say it is too long, but I know that
nothing that we do makes sense if we don’t touch
