Passions of an Odd Chick: Mr. Rabbit

Mr. Rabbit

I don't know why my new little sketch of Mr. Rabbit looks so upset. Maybe it's because his grandkids had to go back home. Or maybe it's because he had to get up at 2:00 a.m. and rake hay. Or maybe it's because he ran out of chocolate.

Mr. Rabbit needs an attitude change. I hope he went to church this morning. That always helps.

He sees his friends, he sings, he focuses on Someone bigger than himself, and then, low & behold, he's happier -more content. At peace deep down. And life seems to make sense again.

From the age of six I had a mania for drawing the shapes of things. When I was fifty I had published a universe of designs, but all I have done before the age of seventy is not worth bothering with. At seventy five I'll have learned something of the pattern of nature, of animals, of plants, of trees, birds, fish and insects. When I am eighty you will see real progress. At ninety I shall have cut my way deeply in the mystery of life itself. At a hundred and ten everything I create; a dot, a line, will jump to life as never before. To all of you who are going to live as long as I do, I promise to keep my word.
