Snails see the benefits the Beauty in every inch





I’m going to keep it short. Last night, I indulged myself by not only curling up with a good book, but also playing the collected works of The Format in the background. I must have been setting myself up to be emotionally charged since the lyrics and tunes of Nate Ruess usually sends me over the moon. As I paused in my reading, I recognized Snails in the background. I closed my eyes, smiled, and sang along with the chorus... “Snails see the benefits, the beauty in ever inch. Oh, why, why, why, why, oh, why are you quick to kiss?”

As my thoughts were quickly whisked away from one imaginative world to one full of music, it dawned upon me that the phrase “Snails see the benefits, the beauty in every inch” is reminiscent of a person who might slowly toil, who might come in dead last, yet they persist in the effort. The beautiful truths that type of person receives allows them to, hopefully, come to a grand perspective of life b/c it's in the DETAILS! This is totally HUFFLEPUFF.
