Did you ever fear your own self worth or who you were based on perceptions people laid on you? When I was younger I worried relentlessly my adoration for felines would change who I was. A melancholic period where I was petrified that my own personal connection to cats would see myself as a delicate femimine person. Whereas, I just wanted to be seen for who I was not by appearance or assumptions. I wanted to portray a moment in time where someone was breaking out into divergence and open themselves to a bigger realization; one where anxiety wasn't seen, with the guidance of our feline friend.
