The unlikely couple of baby hippo and a 130-year-old tortoise was still together, a year after the hippo was separated from its family by the Indian Ocean tsunami.
How cute that we find comfort in situations we can’t explain.
I remember once reading a story about a homeless 40 something man living with a 70 something stranger/vagrant woman. They have been each other’s dependent for years. When the elderly woman died, the man followed soon after, of natural causes.
It seems very common that when one loses its pillar of strength, the will to live seems to be lost too.
I wouldn’t know, I never had any pillars.
