Random adult epiphany.

I just realized I don't feel sorry for Eeyore. My whole childhood, I was always sad about Eeyore. I felt so bad that he was always in such a funk, and that nothing ever seemed to cheer him up. Well, after watching The Many Adventures Of Whinny The Pooh for the umpteenth time, I've finally figured out that Eeyore is a total Debbie Downer because he likes it. He wants the glass to be half-empty. I can't believe I wasted all that time worrying about him, when I was a kid.

I always thought there was something going on between Pooh and Piglet.

I always felt bad for him too. I don't let DD or DS watch pooh. I think it is weird now. Give me Dora any day.

Have some compassion. He has a BODY PART that frequently falls off and is lost. That would make me blue.

Well he doesn't exactly try to make the best of his situation. Just let the tail go and move on with your life! Buy a cute umbrella! When life hands you lemons, add gin and make a cocktail!

You can't just permanently part with a tail. It's like a furry buddy that hangs out on your butt all day. I stand by my previous statement. Frequently losing a body part would make me depressed.

You all are Eeyore HATERS!!!!! Stop the madness.

That's funny, an observation made by my 17 year old daughter on our last disney trip last year "Eeyore is more than likely a closet cutter, he's the strange emo kid in class who's begging you to ask him what's wrong." I thought she was so jaded!

These responses are now making me crack up about Eeyore, which would probably just piss him off. Because, you know, I'm not getting the depth of his suffering.
