Journal #2 - Hospitality

Once upon a time, in a galaxy far, far away, there was a zebra. This was no ordinary zebra. This zebra was the most stylish zebra in all of the land. He wore the newest, trendiest clothes, and had the best hair style around. He wore jewelry and even wore sunglasses in the dark. This zebra was "the man." One day, the zebra went to the mall to pick up his new shoes. These were no ordinary shoes either. These shoes were the newest, coolest shoes on the market, and because the zebra was so stylish, he just had to have them. They were bright pink and green, and all the cool animals in the kingdom had them. Since zebra was a biter, he had to have them.
As soon as the zebra got his new shoes, he never wanted to take them off. He wore them everywhere. He even wore them to bed! The zebra was so excited when he got his new shoes that he wanted to show everyone. He decided to go show his friend lion his new shoes.
When he got to lion's house, he was so excited to show his friend that he didn't think to take off his shoes before running through loin's house. At zebra's house, he could wear his new shoes where ever he wanted to because he thought they were so cool. At lion's house, however, the rules were very different. Lion's mother had just spent the day planting new flowers outside the house, and on his way in, zebra walked right through a big pile of dirt. Zebra didn't notice until after he had done it, but he had tracked mud all through lion's house. He was so embarrassed, and he apologized to lion's mother. He did not mean to cause a mess, but because he didn't think about his household manners, he ended up causing lion's mother a lot of hard work! Zebra learned from his mistake, and he never wore his shoes inside someone else's house ever again.
