It's a forest where both live. You have to decide which one to follow.

Although I would replace lamb - which implies innocence and naivety of childhood - with a creature that is beautiful and clever enough to thrive amidst predators.

@Abstraction so what would that creature be ?

@revenant Difficult to think of one that doesn't have other connotations. Giant pandas are herbivores that have no predators - tigers leave them alone - but some might see them as a little roly-poly to want to identify with.

@Abstraction we can move to other elements like the sea and air.
