Invisible To The Eye

'Men have forgotten this truth,' said the fox. 'But you must not forget it. You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.'

A day out at the Deer Farm for Niamh's birthday - I always have mixed feeling seeing wolves and lynx and even Mr Fox in enclosures..... It was a great day though and the birthday girl was spoiled.

Mr Saint-Exupery allowed Mr Fox to share some further wisdom though: “Goodbye," said the fox. "And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”

Hmmm....
