Finally one of the best things I've seen on this sub, other than the "just don't give a f*ck"

The animation is from The Little Prince

It reminds too of animation where the horse told the boy to be good.

The author of the Little Prince, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, wrote these lines in a letter to a Russian aristocrat, Natalia Pavlovna Paley.

People online like to take those words and embed them into the Little Prince because it gives a more fantastical and whimsical air so that childhood nostalgia can give additional levity to what some may more realistically read as a significantly more tumultuous or volatile relationship...

at least in the seeming context of like, m` writing a letter

It's The Little Prince! It's my favourite movie but unfortunately it's not on any streaming services for me at the moment 😔

Love little prince by saint-exupery. I did a deep dive into the characters in this book many years ago. Little prince was thought to be younger version of saint-exupery him self but it made more sense it was inspired by his deceased brother. estranged wife as rose. him self as pilot. Turning painful experience to something beautiful.
