But this quickly changed when Daisy decided she wanted to become a rhinoceros and left Berenger’s side.

Berenger doesn’t turn in to a rhinoceros because he’s not afraid of what people think or say about him, he’s accepts and liked the way he is, he’s happy, he’s comfotable and he’s unique, he has nothing to be ashamed of, but everyone else, who have a modernist way of thinking, care too much of what other people’s opinion about them is and are constantly trying to be accepted into society, trying to be like everyone else, that’s the reason why they suffer the
