That's it, that's the post. If I ever needed to just pick a favorite and not thing about it, that's my choice.

        Huh, I like what I'm hearing. What's with the donkey always being depressed? What's the lesson we're supposed to take from that? That friends are always there to help you?

          Eeyore exists as a polar opposite to Pooh who is only capable of being happy and bubbly. The lesson you are supposed to learn is that there is more beyond the first impression of someone, he is a very capable and intelligent donkey with thoughts and feelings beyond just being quiet and sad.

          The same could be said for all the characters of pooh and friends in fact. All are extremes of emotion to a flaw yet all are quite capable and handy to have around despite being at those extremities of personality. Whether it's Tigger's hyperactivity or piglets fear or rabbits strict stubbornness, none are bad, all are good in their own way.

          Yes, his emotions are never quite seriously addresses much, but his friends do come to his aid when he has material needs like shelter.
