It probably doesn't seem like much or like it could possible be enough but sometimes all you need is 5 minutes. So often we tell ourselves that we don't have the time for certain things.

There are no lions in the jungle
How exactly did the Lions become the King of the Jungle, when they don't even live there? I suppose there is something noteworthy about having such a reputation that you're considered to 'rule' (or at least hold a respectable level of status) in spaces that you don't even venture into.
You don’t have to go through it
