Elle et son chat : tout coule

Blatant tearjerker, but it works. I couldn't resist it. In half an hour, it ended up being a successful emotional rollercoaster and succeeded in making me miss my cat a lot.

There's a faint sense of hope here for sure, which makes it avoid being a total bummer. I think it would otherwise be miserable, but it still rings a tad hollow to me, just based on personal experience, and a continual feeling that things don't get better... or at least that they haven't lately, no matter what I try.

Everything Flows suggests things can get better for anyone, anywhere, and while I can't fully get on board with that sentiment (and I wish I could), it does still work at inspiring even the smallest amount of hope, even for someone jaded and kind of beaten down by life. For that, it's worth something, even if it is very obvious and unashamed in its attempts to make you cry.
