Artist's Comments

My eight-year-old self was so awesome.



EDIT: holy mother of--a DD? I'm floored. Wow. This was done 100% for my own cathartic release, it's amazingly touching to me that so many people could sympathize so much.

Thank you all!

The suggester says: "I kind of started to skim through this comic at first, but quickly realized that I needed to slow down and savor it. Every artist knows good and well how to best be self deprecating. comic - self reflection by *chira-chira is a pretty solid kick in the butt as a reminder that yes, we ARE awesome, no ifs, ands, or buts. I find it kind of difficult to say anything about the comic, because it says so much on by itself." (Suggested by *Arborish and Featured by ^Cedarseed)

Ouch. That was cripplingly depressing and yet uplifting at the same time. My brain is confused as to which emotion I'm feeling right now. I'm gonna go with warm fuzzies. :)

Baaawww, this is so sweet! I love how you illustrated this sort of moment everyone I think has, but doesn't realize it. And you were such a cute 8-year-old, too! |3

Life is not about how fast you run, or how high you climb, but how well you bounce.
