hyp·o·crite
1 : a person who puts on a false appearance of virtue or religion
2 : a person who acts in contradiction to his or her stated beliefs or feelings
In Greek, it literally means, 'an actor on a stage'. Sadly, a lot of times we tend to become this "actor" when we talk about or criticize people when they aren't around, but to their face we are their "friends". I think if we were all a little less prideful and a bit more honest in our dealings with each other AND ourselves, a lot of our worldly problems would sort themselves out.
Having a friend like Rex around to remind us to be mindful of our thoughts and actions can be quite helpful.

I must say, I'm quite happy that this blog has ended up being my weekly moral compass. Those are always good to have.
And as always I love your style. Great work!
hahaha...thanks my friend! Who'd a thunk that a giant cyclops could point people in the right direction!
Greek mythology Cyclop isn't as lovely as yours!
hahaha.... Thanks very much! It's just because they aren't as lovable though... and don't have day jobs!
