Winnie the Pooh, or Pooh Bear as his beloved friends call him, is often viewed as warm, simple and soft-spoken, yet his humbleness, and clear yet simple way of viewing life reveals an incredibly profound wisdom that resonates with just about everyone.
Winnie the Pooh’s author, A. A. Milne, named Pooh after a teddy bear owned by his son, Christopher Robin Milne, on whom the character Christopher Robin was based. Christopher’s other toys became characters as well; Piglet, Roo, Eeyore, Kanga, and Tigger. Pooh bear’s profound yet sweetly simple philosophy, as well as his friend’s interpretations, provide meaningful life lessons for every type of person, regardless of how old they are. Take a minute to appreciate some of the wisdom and warmhearted sayings of Winnie The Pooh:
