Upside down and right side in!
Not the unlikely, never going to happen, children from a family who hate each, never seen them before in my life kind. We are here for the unadulterated kind of love that happens between a cat and a pringle’s can. The cat named Scrunchy, always longed for something that would love, protect, and surround him with warmth. One of three Pringle’s cans stands topless on the room’s center piece, early in party, feeling empty. The cat notices the can. The can almost seems to wink back as the cats tail perks up. The cat, curious, gracefully hops onto the table. Walking around the can to feel it’s cardboard exterior brush gently against Scrunchy’s fur, he looks inside, & sees the shimmering foil interior. The cat purrs at the thought of how wonderful that might feel. Brushing past the exterior of the can, almost knocking it onto it’s side, the Can spirals around it’s base with the slowly increasing frequency of wombling revolutions before coming to a testy final stop. Scrunchy looks back, needing to know, jumps headfirst into the can. Warmth! The scent of sour cream and onion rez! Everything Scrunchy has ever wanted. Leaving only his furry white&brown tail sticking out the end.
May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you’re wonderful, and don’t forget to make some art – write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself.

I mentioned this guy when talking to my gf about not getting out enough 😏
“If I have ventured wrongly, very well, life then helps me with its penalty. But if I haven’t ventured at all, who helps me then?” – Søren Kierkegaard, The Sickness Unto Death
I humble myself before you.
Be with me, God.
Watch over, protect and guide me.
God, help me to be satisfied.
Work miracles in me and perfect the story of my life as only you can, God.
You sent your son to die for us.
Show me the truth & grant us your grace.
In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
