Jim's Cafe, 30th of April, 2021

[johnDoen]

I was a bit unstable during the day with the heat, the noises, and the fact that no one cared about how miserable I was dealing the thoughts of suicide, alone and again.
I hope I have enough for another game with therapists. This has to end.
Anyways, what happened and matters today according to me and Wikipedia:

• 1492, Christopher Columbus was allowed to explore.
• 1789, George Washington took the oath of office in Wall Street, and became the 1st US President.
• 1803, The US bought Lousiana from the French for $15 millions.
• 1812, The establishment for the statehood of Lousiana.
• 1885, New York established Niagara Reservation to protect Niagara Falls.
• 1897, The discovery of electron.
• 1900, Hawaii became a US state.
• 1905, Albert Einstein was then allowed to be called Dr.
• 1937, The Phillipines allowed women to vote for the first time.
• 1975, The official end of Vietnam War, according to my people, the Vietnamese, where the land is united.
• 1993, The internet was declared free.
• Birthday of Gal Gadot, who plays Wonder Woman in many recent DC movies.

The Starry Sky Above
You take a look outside, just for a sight to the stars in the clear night sky. Amazed by the sparkles, you begin to draw lines between the stars, trying to make a familliar shape. So, what do you draw?

• A ram, as you feel eager for the upcoming adventures and too excited to sleep.
• A bull, as you feel creative in drawing.
• You, as you feel curious to know what makes you "you" and how would the upcoming adventures help you answer that.
• A crab, as you feel the pain of the people you love and the need to protect them.
• A lion, as you feel confident in yourself and your strength.
• A long-haired girl, as you see yourself indulging in wealth and treasures.
• A scale, as you feel the need of justice in this chaotic world.
• A scorpion, as you feel the passion to make a name for yourself.
• A horse, as you feel happy in life overall.
• A goat, as you feel the importance of the upcoming adventures and how they would impact the world and yourself.
• A pot, as you review on the lessons of past adventures and how to apply them in the upcoming ones.
• A fish, as you feel a bit lonely in these adventures.

If you are thinking about the seal, it's still there, lying next to the campfire, "blourgh" - it said.
I don't know why there must be a seal lurking around your campsite, but it insists.
Well, the tags.

I often make posts like this pretty late so I apologize if I forgot someone.

Tysm for tagging me & opening the cafe today @johnDoen Always happy when there's a cafe posted, and this one looks cool & thoughtful for sure Also, just wanted to say I'm really sorry you were feeling miserable and suicidal yesterday, I hope that is not still the case today but if it is then I am sorry to hear that. Hope you will be feeling better soon though, and please know you are never alone cos I and many others here care and want to give support, comfort and encouragement. I hope things will go well with your therapist and that you will find their advice helpful Sending lots of hugs to you, today & always

The one I pick out of those options you gave is kind of a tie between drawing "myself" and "a fish".
The reasons for picking those ones are:

Myself - I'm always curious about why I do what I do and feel like the more I understand that the less confusing things will be.

Fish - Cos I often feel very alone in both the information/truth I seek about things, and about the intense level of caring I feel about it. Aside from my uncle, I've never met anyone who truly matches the level of intensity, and at this point I'm starting to think that it must just be an extremely rare thing or something. Sad that the fear level must be so high in the majority, I sincerely hope that one day that will not be the case and that having a pure, open, deep, passionate curiosity about things in the world will be far more common than people not caring enough to seek such knowledge.

Great job on the tags, the only ones I can think to add that aren't already there are: @Baywasp @Witty⭐️Sarcasm ⭐️ @pooky & @MosesY
Hope everyone has a nice day

Thanks for the tag @JMG
Hope things start going better for you soon @johnDoen and this is a fascinating subject for a cafe.
I am worried that this will make me sound a bit conceited, but I choose the scorpion. I am in the middle of my journey to begin my career in social psychology research, and while I don't want to be famous per se, and it's highly unlikely I would, I do seek to have my name known and cited with my experiments and other studies. At times, I am also jealous of those who receive more attention than me, even though I know it shouldn't matter. I seek to find worth in being seen.

Great job opening @johnDoen

thank you for opening the cafe and inviting me @johnDoen

mike...

 

[Witty_Sarcasm]

I pick fish because that's my star sign :P

 

[KM76710]

Definitely a fish, I am almost always solitary and alone, but at the same time I don't always play well with others and don't fit in with them.

 

[pooky]

A lion, as I feel confident enough to manage a crisis situation because I have learnt from the past

Thank you for tagging me @johnDoen . Such a cool theme.

I pick taurus because I do enjoy doing artwork. I have to admit though the one with the long haired girl enjoying wealth and treasures was very tempting. But what is that without love and family?
