Lion or lyin’ ?
Have you seen the video about Christian the lion and his reunion with friends John Rendall and Ace Berg?
If you haven’t, it’s worth a couple of minutes of your time.
Seems though that there are some people who question whether or not this video is a fake.
My response?
Whatever.
Here’s a video that tugs on people’s hearts. You have to be a big lump of concrete to not be moved in some way when you watch this video. It stirs our deepest desires for connection, for love, for enduring friendship.
Personally I choose to believe its the real deal.
Just the possibility is delightful. Isn’t it curious that some people would rather choose cynicism and turn away from a heart warming of our collective core.
Whether it’s a fake or not is hardly the point. People are feeling a rush of emotion and having conversations about love and possibility. Works for me.




I had a lump in my throat when I watched that video for the first time. I agree with you on this one. There are just waaay too many nuffers out there… who cares if its fake or not. Pretend it is and let me have my moment

I meant to say “Pretend it isn’t fake”
