✧ Introduction

The opossum is North America’s only marsupial. When confronted with danger, they play dead, laying stiff on the ground and even emitting an unpleasant odor, causing the predator to get confused and leave. This is an automatic, instinctual reaction that the opossum is unable to control.

✧ Lesson

This is a perfect reminder to not let situations get too out of hand. On the other hand, perhaps you need to examine how you react to certain things. In difficult circumstances, it is easy to just let your emotions take control, and to react in a way that is not helpful. It is important to remember to use your head and act calmly.
