āAgnesā is one of my favourites and Iāll check again later so that I donāt miss what everyone has to say. All you āregularsā in the comment section are like club membersā¦ You all seem to know (and mostly like) each other and make reading the comics strips much more fun.Thanks, and a Happy New Year to you all.
āChristmas is just two days past, and already Agnes is depressed.Sheās just not of this world!ā-Come now, let us be honest. There is much depression around Christmas. People know they are supposed to be happy but often arenāt. They know they are supposed to be with family but often canāt stand each other. They spent much time and money on gifts the other person didnāt want or appreciate.-āAnd so, this is Christmas, and what have we done?Another year older, a new one just begunAnd so, happy Christmas, I hope you have funThe near and the dear ones, the old and the youngA merry, merry Christmas and a Happy New YearLetās hope itās a good one, without any fears "-Hmmm, too late for that.
Hmmmmmā¦ā¦ gooshy or crisp bacon? I donāt have greasy bacon. Grannie ā let Agnes have some tea made with loose tea leavesā¦.. then let her read her destiny. .Know Iām late ā but the computer Iām using is ā¦ā¦old & sloooow. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
As for her ādepressionāā¦ I donāt think sheās depressed.
Sheās a wild dreamer, but also very self-contained in her little chrysalis of self-protection.
She already knows that everything goes wrong outside itā¦.sheās poor, unpopular, and canāt catch a breakā¦but her attitude keeps her safe, and she still expects to emerge as a sparkly butterfly one day.To me, her statement is more impatient than depressed.She wants her gossamer wings sooner, not later.

to pin down your destiny, you must first find your fingers

Granny the Stoic. She learned some years back that her destiny is not to have a destiny.

Good point Granny but destiny can be pretty slippery by itself.

I think Agnes must lick her fingers, then she would know the answer to Grannyās wise question and will help set her on the path to enlightenment.
