Cat's Cafe by Matt Tarpley for January 28, 2020

This just cracked me up.

*F*rustrated, *I*nsecure, *N*eurotic and *E*gotistical.

At least that’s what my therapist tells me it means.

So, you’re really a chameleon?

The beginning of a long trip is taking the first step ;-)

he’s blue on the inside?

Awwww! Let’s have a cup of coffee and talk! I’m here for you….

The Five Stairsteps have reassurance: Ooh, Child

Ooh, friend, laughing’s gonna get easier,

Ooh, friend smiles are gonna get brighter,

Ooh, friend, laughing’s gonna get easier,

Ooh, friend smiles are gonna get brighter,

…….

Today, your friends are all around you,

Today, there’s no need to despair,

Today, don’t be afraid to cry and reach out,

You’ll find, that they all do care!

…….

Ooh, friend, laughing’s gonna get easier,

Ooh, friend smiles are gonna get brighter,

Ooh, friend, laughing’s gonna get easier,

Ooh, friend smiles are gonna get brighter!

This is me, I smile on the outside, but I may be going a tiny bit insane on the inside

Ed, from the Lion King.

I recognize you anywhere!

Somebody’s read his Eisner. Great work!

The veneer cracks a little with each lie.

I’m like this, I tell people “I’m fine jut tired” I am tired, tired of feeling worthless tired of being pushed around tired of feeling like no one can help, and tired of being awake ‘till 2am wondering if I’m good enough for anyone. it hurts, I should tell my family and friends but I don’t want to hurt them.

oh so thats why it was shattering
