Watterson pulled no punches

This 👆 is spot on!

If someone pisses you off, it's not them it's you. They just triggered that trauma that happened to you in the past that you didn't deal with. Like the man said; "It's not easy to call yourself out on your own shit." It takes brutal honesty, perseverance and a lot of patience with yourself. But it's worth it! 🤔

Let's see if this one passes the 🚔 inspection 🙄🙄

Take note guys!!

My wife, who is the absolute best thing in my world. I send her random hotwife posts and other appealing things. She sees my page, my posts, my likes, etc. Often she laments that she'll never look like, she'll never be as, she'll never have, in comparison to women in the images. I remind her, as I hope many men out there do with their significant other, that she's missing the point and hitting it at the same time. I don't want her to look like, be like, or be as whatever as any other woman. I want her exactly as she is, not like anyone else, her own unique bundle of perfection and flaws. Do I think she'll ever see it that way? No, probably not entirely, the world isn't set up that way, it'll always have you focused in the wrong direction to some point. But every day, at every opportunity, I'll keep reminding her, that she's the one, my one, and she's amazing just as she is.

The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992), dir. Brian Henson

Katharine Hepburn’s childhood, in her own words.

“Once when I was a teenager, my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus.

Finally, there was only one other family between us and the ticket counter. This family made a big impression on me.

There were eight children, all probably under the age of 12. The way they were dressed, you could tell they didn't have a lot of money, but their clothes were neat and clean.

The children were well-behaved, all of them standing in line, two-by-two behind their parents, holding hands. They were excitedly jabbering about the clowns, animals, and all the acts they would be seeing that night. By their excitement you could sense they had never been to the circus before. It would be a highlight of their lives.

The father and mother were at the head of the pack standing proud as could be. The mother was holding her husband's hand, looking up at him as if to say, "You're my knight in shining armour." He was smiling and enjoying seeing his family happy.

The ticket lady asked the man how many tickets he wanted? He proudly responded, "I'd like to buy eight children's tickets and two adult tickets, so I can take my family to the circus." The ticket lady stated the price.

The man's wife let go of his hand, her head dropped, the man's lip began to quiver. Then he leaned a little closer and asked, "How much did you say?" The ticket lady again stated the price.

The man didn't have enough money. How was he supposed to turn and tell his eight kids that he didn't have enough money to take them to the circus?

Seeing what was going on, my dad reached into his pocket, pulled out a $20 bill, and then dropped it on the ground. (We were not wealthy in any sense of the word!) My father bent down, picked up the $20 bill, tapped the man on the shoulder and said, "Excuse me, sir, this fell out of your pocket."

The man understood what was going on. He wasn't begging for a handout but certainly appreciated the help in a desperate, heartbreaking and embarrassing situation.

He looked straight into my dad's eyes, took my dad's hand in both of his, squeezed tightly onto the $20 bill, and with his lip quivering and a tear streaming down his cheek, he replied; "Thank you, thank you, sir. This really means a lot to me and my family."

My father and I went back to our car and drove home. The $20 that my dad gave away is what we were going to buy our own tickets with.

Although we didn't get to see the circus that night, we both felt a joy inside us that was far greater than seeing the circus could ever provide.

That day I learnt the value to Give.

The Giver is bigger than the Receiver. If you want to be large, larger than life, learn to Give. Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get - only with what you are expecting to give - which is everything.

The importance of giving, blessing others can never be over emphasised because there's always joy in giving. Learn to make someone happy by acts of giving.”
