Eeyore: a character in the Winnie-the-Pooh books, created by A. A.
Milne; generally characterized as a greyish-blue, gloomy,
depressed, anthropomorphic, old stuffed donkey
I went over to help eat the food Alby cooked and watch her put shiny things on their Xmas tree. I wasn't much help. Actually, in my defense I have a broken ankle and I did string on some beads!
We also watched the following movie...well I can't find a version to embed, so you can see The Help trailer here.
It was a fantastic reminder that, in retrospect, I have nothing to complain about. If I ever again speak of suffering, I need only to remember that there are those who have been deeper in the depths of pain than I. One thing is certain, the more you suffer the more resilient you become. My life has been worse than some but a whole heck of a lot better than others. My mom lent me the book, I'm reading it now.
p.s. I apologize for my masochistic and my self-loathing and my sadist vanity. Sometimes I relate most to Eeyore.
