SHRIMP, CRAWFISH, LOBSTER

 

Facing Fears
Moving Forward

 

Shrimp, Crayfish and Lobster's lesson is not to hide from your fears;
to try new things.
They show us how to come out of our shells.
They serve as a reminder to come forth in spite of fears
and to move forward.
However, if we encounter danger or trouble by moving forward,
we must remember that we can also move backward
and back out of trouble.
