Cute. Comic strips encourage our sense of Humor and is good for so many things, health, social relations,creativity, feeling of being alive, self-esteem and so much more. Did you know that on average a child laugh 200 times every day? Adults laugh only 15 times per day. We should surround our self with children all the time, and let them show us what makes life so much fun. Hehe. Cute.

His moment. Following what his heart was telling him, instead of what society expects... Didn't Einstien leave school at 15? Who knows what Calvin would have become after he grew up.

Hobbes challenged Calvin's assumptions by being a stuff tiget to begin with yet constantly impacting Calvin's moment by moment experience, both as an antagonist as well as a co-conspirator. The 2 of them were a healthy antidote to complacency and staid thinking. I was constantly enthralled by the little koan like lessons the comic strip presented. Thank you, Bill Watterdson, I miss you.

This is the wrong attitude or most people! To do or think of something else while you are in place! We lose the 'precious moments' of PRESENT. I think, since I was a child, in this respect, I was wise. I was always listening and paying attention to other people's talking, to my parents, teachers and friends. I may sound 'Dull', but then it was so easy for me to remember everything. Memory is the basis of knowledge and then repetition and concentration. It is the exercise for our 'senses' and then just by 'forgetting' the material senses, we start experiencing the REAL world, the parallel. LOVE, THELMA ‘I hope the teacher didn’t say anything important!!’
