Anxiety and Puss and Boots!
So hear me out. I know this seems crazy but Puss and Boots summed up what many “middle-aged” persons are experiencing- ANXIETY and sometimes- shall I say it out loud FEAR!
Without spoiling it for PUSS fans or those with kids who cannot scape going- PUSS goes through a reflection period where he realizes life is fragile and well short. Like most stories- it is predictable to the extent we know he will confront his demons, conquer them and live Happily EVER after.
Unfortunately life is not always a fairytale.
I began researching stories on Anxiety and Depression- especially during this time of year and learned that it is not uncommon. Well- you could also guess that- but what I thought was refreshing was the open and candid way we are embracing persons who need to be HEARD. While we can not “fix” someone’s blues-as the old saying goes- you NEVER know what is going on in someone’s life. Words and Actions MATTER!
The best New Year’s Resulution to add to your list is as follows:

Who knew PUSS was so prolific!?!
Happy New Year
