“What is the cat?" he exclaimed. "It is a corrective. The good God, having made the mouse, said: `Hullo! I have committed a blunder.' And so he made the cat. The cat is the erratum of the mouse. The mouse, plus the cat, is the proof of creation revised and corrected.”

Who knew growing up could be so scary. When I was little, I was tired of being so sheltered at home and restricted to do things by my parents. I didn’t have to care about school as much or the small house chores I had. And now that I’m all grown up, I have to take care of so many little things that add up to a huge amount of stress. I have education and jobs to worry about, financial struggles, transportation issues, relationships, and a whole bunch of other things. It kinda makes me wish I was a kid again.
The most unattractive thing is when someone can’t say what they want to say. When someone is too afraid to say what they really mean. When someone doesn’t have the balls to do what they need to do. When someone is too scared to hurt someone else, even though it would make them happy.
There is no use in lurking or lying or beating around the bush.
