Description
youtu.be/bVHc0pDENVkWhether legend or truth, there is no doubt that the tired shepherd drove his large herd together in the evening to count them, fell asleep while doing so, and ever since, "counting sheep" is regarded as a reliable way of helping the sleepless get to sleep.
We refer to the ,,good shepherd" and his flock, and in addition to the numerous traditional texts and songs, even mythology has discovered the ,,holy lamb" for itself, as a symbol of purity and innocence. Because sheep have such pretty eyes? Because we see so much in them that is lovable, pretty and pleasant?
Think about that while watching this programme, with many small and large, painted and real, spotted and white sheep that ceaselessly jump past us. And then we shall know whether the story about the shepherd and the method itself is just a nice legend, or has some truthful origin. Sleep well.

Ach Ans, ich liebe Schafe. Die sind für mich der Inbegriff von Sanftheit.
Wenn ich irgendwo eine Schafherde sehe, werde ich richtig sentimental.

If you are meaning Columbus ---> he was Italian.
Then it could be Jack Sparrow with his Black Pearl, but I think nobody knows where he's from.
So it must have been Noah, because he had all kinds of animals in his Ark.

The bible doesn't say. It only describes him as a ''righteous man'' that obeyed God. There were no Jews as they came from Abraham, nor Christians that were followers of Christ. Much more I can't tell you either.

You're always welcome Yadi. Maybe a matter of DST?
I personally need a couple of weeks to find my biorhythm back...
