easy as you go Sam
Easy as Sam goes
steady as a 
a slug
comes along
without a shell
and says "hey what the hell"?
Sam replies. "whatever do you mean"?
slug: what is that thing on your back?
Sam: 
don't know its always been there, never questioned it as a matter of fact
slug: well from where I slime about it looks like its holding you back
Sam: umm, well I don't think I can get it off my back
slug: such a shame it looks like it should come off
Sam: no, its not a shame, not at all
slug: what do you mean
Sam: life would be a bore slug if we were all the exact same
slug: oh!
Sam: even worse if we were all slugs or all snails
slug: very true indeed
Sam: even worse if we were all worthless slugs not asking questions with nothing at all to lose!
slug: I see, I see why you need the shell Sam, it helps us remember there is something to lose
Sam: I never thought of it that way dude, I was thinking it reminds me that I am worth protecting, and not the same as you
slug: diversity is very cool
Sam:yes diversity is way cool
slug: see ya Sam I am going to go spread the good news why snails have shells
Sam: ok see ya another day, maybe we can do lunch!
slug: ok, have your snails call my slugs!©
