There is something unfair about calling an animal that simply takes things easy a sloth. Of course, it’s such a calm that only a tortoise could understand it well.
Her reflections seem to have been filmed in slow motion, but the sloth doesn’t care.
She is all indolence, parsimony, eternity. He doesn’t play the star of some Fast and Furious movie. Rather, it goes through life unhurriedly and with pause, whether to eat, defecate or reproduce.
He is a sweetheart.
There is something a bit unfair about defining sloths as slothful just because they like to take it easy. But theirs is such a languid pace that only a turtle can fully understand them.
It doesn’t bother a sloth in the least that he moves like a film in slow-motion. The sloth is quite indifferent to his reputation for being phlegmatic and lazy; he has no desire at all to be the star of a movie based on the fast and the furious. He far prefers to amble through life unhurriedly, taking all the time in the world to live life to the fullest.
What a delight!
