Great story and of course, Herzog is like none other. The clip was a bit melancholy but the message clear. When enough is enough, pave your own path.

Herzog is Mr. Everywhere.. what a life. Did you like Happy People? It's so soothing.

I did! Soothing is a good way to describe it. Love hanging out with Herzog in some place I've never been for 90 min

"But the penguin doesn’t stop to explain why he’s going his own way. The penguin is uninterested in justification. Maybe he doesn’t even know why yet himself."

Thanks for the reminder to follow the magic and mystery, Abigail. Loved getting to read about your journey down the Herzog rabbit hole.
