2024-12-06 21:36:51 +0000 UTCI really appreciate this! That bit about the pressure to constantly be more and do more is so real. I'll keep that in mind, and I wish you and your family all the best as well!

2024-12-06 16:28:04 +0000 UTCA few years ago i was talking to my bestfriend about just this. He was being a bit anxsty, wondering why people in his home town seemed to take him seriously and listen to his advice when, to his mind, he was a guy in his early 30s, without a college degree, who worked in a warehouse. I asked him if he remembered those adults, when we were kids, who seemed to have it all put together, who you could go to for advice, or lean on in times of trouble. He said, "of course!" "Yeah," I said, "I think that's us now." "But" he said "We don't have it together AT ALL!" "Nope." I agreed, "But thsts a secret. I don't think they did either. At all. It's just they faked it better than others. And they cared about people and were willing to play that role for us, because it was important." There was dead silence on the phone for a few seconds before said bestfriend tapped into his inner Luke Skywalker and moaned "Nooooooo!!!! That's IMPOSSIBLE!!!!" But it's why I've learned not to compare myself with others (too much). Yeah, I wish I was married with kids right now (badly!!!!!!). But none of us REALLY have it put together. We're all just doing the best we can and flailing around much of the time. And thsts scary. But also kinda heartwarming too.

2024-12-05 18:40:56 +0000 UTCAltruism is the basis of civilization. Be kind to those in your community.

2024-12-05 18:04:37 +0000 UTCI live for doing exactly this to my kids. I get the exact same response 😆😊

2024-12-05 17:58:01 +0000 UTC🤣 no kids myself, so I can only enjoy inflicting this kind of embarassment vicariously

2024-12-05 17:35:14 +0000 UTC27!! You're so YOUNG! enjoy it, there's no time limit to deciding what you wanna do and nothing that says you can't change it! You're doing great just surviving every day ❤️❤️

2024-12-05 17:33:39 +0000 UTCYa know, that was a much needed affirmation. Thanks Ellen :)
SynysterCola
2024-12-05 17:32:22 +0000 UTCIt's easier said than done I know, I made this partially for me too as it feels impossible some days to accept myself as is. Our culture does not want us to be happy with ourselves because it's not profitable or easy to manipulate. Maybe if we weren't constantly bombarded with fake images of what we "should" be like than we'd feel more at peace

2024-12-05 17:21:26 +0000 UTCI will post this publicly soon and may try to make it a large print somehow!

2024-12-05 17:21:13 +0000 UTCLol my daughter had to lecture me yesterday because she felt I wasn't being kind to myself so I definitely need to listen to my own advice
Pizzacake Comics
2024-12-05 17:20:38 +0000 UTCI hugged my daughter at the MALL the other day and she almost destroyed me 😆
Pizzacake Comics
2024-12-05 17:19:28 +0000 UTCIts harder than we think to be kind to ourselves, takes lots of practise!
Pizzacake Comics
2024-12-05 17:19:00 +0000 UTCYou are more than your job. My husband got laid off right when we first started dating. He was devastated...didn't know what to do. Then he got a much better job and just kept moving up and up! Sometimes it's better to leave a place

2024-12-05 17:18:05 +0000 UTCThank you, I needed this this morning! Loving the positive vibes around here!

2024-12-05 16:53:21 +0000 UTCThank you. At 27, I'm always self-doubting a lot about things and where I am in life so this means a lot to hear 😁
Rhett Desormeaux
2024-12-05 16:36:23 +0000 UTCI just got a nasty performance rating at work, and will probably be laid off or quit soon. This made me feel better. Thanks
Tim
2024-12-05 16:36:22 +0000 UTCOK that last panel is absolutely me with my daughter.... Even though she is on her own and has started a family. Feels weird being a grandpa this young, but I shall do this to my grandkids as well. BWA HAHAHA

Dark Wringer
2024-12-05 15:53:50 +0000 UTCWhy you trying to make me cry on my drive to work? ♥️ Love this and you for making it.
John Phillips
2024-12-05 15:45:28 +0000 UTCLove this and thank you. "Be kinder to yourself" is something I often tell my loved ones. Life is hard, there's no reason to make it harder by tearing yourself down.
Leland Eidson
2024-12-05 15:31:08 +0000 UTCThanks 😊 Also, that last panel cracked me up🤣
Rhonda
2024-12-05 15:28:03 +0000 UTCBeen at it 45 years and am still working on it. That is ok, life is fluid and having it all figured out would be boring. Set reachable goals, don't worry about the neighbors, just enjoy the ride with family (blood or found, doesn't matter) taking pleasure in the little things.
Dale Thomas
2024-12-05 15:26:28 +0000 UTCI agree, I mean, I've been working a lot lately to get some things for myself, but it's not the things themselves that made me happy, it's the fact that, ever since I was a kid, I wanted to be able to have things I wanted from working hard, growing up poor washing exactly the best, but now I have the newest consoles and everything, it's not the things themselves that make me happy, but knowing that hey, I did something I wanted as a kid, that makes me proud of myself. Sometimes, ya gotta go back and give your inner child something they'd be proud of, ya know?
Anthony Cermak
2024-12-05 15:22:53 +0000 UTCAnd do you do this for yourself, hmm? Be honest now, your kids will tell on you anyway 😅

2024-12-05 15:21:57 +0000 UTCHow do I buy this as a postcard/poster? My niece needs to hear this...

2024-12-05 15:19:46 +0000 UTCI've been wrestling with this as of late. I do appreciate the kind words tho. 🙂

2024-12-05 15:19:32 +0000 UTCLol. I see your daughter being a comedian someday.
William Harris
2024-12-05 15:19:29 +0000 UTCThanks, Ellen ❤️. I needed this reminder, especially at this time of year. The TV commercials really over-estimate my holiday budget and then make me feel inadequate for Not Buying Stuff (tm). Your kids and husband got lucky with you 🥰
CanDude
2024-12-05 15:15:42 +0000 UTCThanks. I needed this today.

2024-12-05 15:14:48 +0000 UTCSweet words. I may need to look back at this from time to time.

2024-12-05 15:14:33 +0000 UTCHey right back at you girl. You are amazing and I hope your doing well. I know you have lots of support, but you know I'm here for you too.
Aaron Pearson
2024-12-05 15:14:27 +0000 UTCThere’s a line from “The Sunscreen Song” that I’ve always liked that kinda goes along with this: “Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives. Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don't.”
