The Muppets as an allegory to life.
Who doesn't love the Muppets? From the long lived relationship of Miss Piggy and Kermit, to the Swedish Chef who just can't seem to get it right, to the sado-maschistic relationship of the Professor and Beaker to the "negative Nellies" Waldorf and Statler we can all see real life in the Muppets.
Let's take a look at the Professor and Beaker. Beaker tries so hard to impress his boss and just gets blown up for his efforts. Have you ever had a job like that? I have, no matter what I did, the boss just never appreciated my hard work or me.
What about Waldorf and Statler, when you started on your Wealthy Affiliate journey were there people in your life heckling you from the balcony? Are they still there?
Then there's Animal...he just wants to beat his drum. That makes him happy, why do people judge him for that?
I woke up this morning remembering a skit from the Muppet show from years ago. I think it was the mice and the leader said "Today we dance!" and all the mice were like whirling dervishes dancing around.
So...Today I Dance! I will take time to dance around my house like a gal gone crazy, just because I can. As I dance I will be grateful for everything I have..my family, my friends, my health.
I will be grateful that I found WA and all the things I have learned so far and will learn in the future. And I will be grateful to you...the WA community for all the support I have received in the past couple of months. Thank you all!
Today I Dance!
I couldn't find the skit with the dancing mice ...but I will leave you with a YouTube of dancing Muppets. Enjoy!
