The whole world is talking about the nihilistic penguin...



In short, the story is about a penguin that decided to leave its colony and walk against their direction alone. It walked towards the mountains, even though their correct direction was towards the sea, as that's their source of food. Some experts say this behavior happens when a penguin feels a lack of belonging to its colony, like no one understands it, and it feels different from the others (alone among its own people). The penguin walked about 70 kilometers and then died in the snow.


Some people have taken this as a lesson that you must leave people and places that don't feel like home, no matter the consequences, because you might survive and gain your freedom. Others see it as reckless to abandon your colony, which could help you in danger, and to abandon your nature and instincts just to be different.
