Page 18 - Olie the Observant

I often talk with you humans about doing what is in your best self-interest. That means doing something that is good for you without purposely trying to be mean to others.
Sometimes someone may want something of yours that you don’t want to share. It is okay to say, I really don’t want to share this. If the other person gets upset because you don’t share that is their Stinky Thinking and not your fault.
But doing what is in your best self-interest does not mean to be unhelpful. Sometimes being helpful is inconvenient or difficult.
Sometimes the ones you are helping don’t seem to appreciate the help.
But that is okay. Being helpful without expecting praise or reward is Good Thinking and is part of what made the other owls admire Ollie.
