Hey, you!

Yes, I'm talking to you.

I know you feel that you need to achieve something more than you have, that there's this nagging belief itching at your soul that you won't really be somebody unless you've done something important. You may or may not want the spotlight; but either way, you want to know that you have done something you can feel proud of, and you are sure you'll feel unfulfilled until you've done it.

I've got news for you. Great accomplishment will not make you a great person. Sorry, it just doesn't happen that way.

Noteworthy achievements simply make it easier to see what kind of person you already are.

Speaking of food, when do we all go to that kitty-cat restaurant?

Delightful!

Is it okay if I don't join in the singing of "Love Cats"? I'm afraid I never did much like that song.

I suppose singing the old Meow Mix commercial would be too tacky. At least that's what my piano teacher used to tell me when I sang it for her.

You are SO talking to me, this is why I feel like a loser because I never achieve anything. :(

*hugs*

AMEN!

(I was just reading your "You know you're from..." thing when I saw this, and I wanted to thank you for it too.)
