Realization

The squirrel slept at night in a nest of leaves in a tree, and spent his days looking for nuts on the ground.

Then one day he got tired of being a squirrel. There was nothing else he could do, so he thought he would end it all by jumping off the cliff into the ocean. He stood at the cliff edge, waiting for some courage.

A german sheppard came by and said, "What are you doing?"

The squirrel said, "I'm done being a squirrel. I'm going to end it all."

The sheppard said, "Well, where does that leave me? I look forward to chasing you everyday."

The squirrel, "I'm sorry, but that's not my problem."

The sheppard was distraught, jumped off the cliff, and landed in the waters below. The squirrel thought that was a rather rash reaction, changed his mind, and went back to being a full time squirrel.

The next day the squirrel was out looking for nuts. Suddenly he stopped and thought, "Boy, it's so nice no longer being chased."
