Today's 'Song To Chew', "IF YOU LOVE A HIPPOPOTAMUS" was written by Connie Kaldor, a wonderful Canadian singer-songwriter.  It brings up the delicate subject of our size and our behavior and our appearance. If we don't look or behave the way other people think we should, we can get excluded, and become overly-critical of ourselves.  We beat ourselves up for eating too much or exercising too little or being clumsy, then feel sad or angry about the whole thing, and binge to sooth ourselves.  Next, we feel guilty, and go on another strict diet, and the cycle continues.  In the animal kingdom hippos know who they are and they pay attention to what they do!  They know that the size of a package isn't as important as what's inside that package!
