After seeing some of the posts in the last few days, this just seems appropriate. (Not my pic or quote.)


"Today was a Difficult Day," said Pooh.
There was a pause.
"Do you want to talk about it?" asked Piglet.
"No," said Pooh after a bit. "No, I don't think I do."
"That's okay," said Piglet, and he came and sat beside his friend.
"What are you doing?" asked Pooh.
"Nothing, really," said Piglet. "Only, I know what Difficult Days are like. I quite often don't feel like talking about it on my Difficult Days either.
"But goodness," continued Piglet, "Difficult Days are so much easier when you know you've got someone there for you. And I'll always be here for you, Pooh."
And as Pooh sat there, working through in his head his Difficult Day, while the solid, reliable Piglet sat next to him quietly, swinging his little legs...he thought that his best friend had never been more right."
A.A. Milne
Sending thoughts to those having a Difficult Day today and hope you have your own Piglet to sit beside you 🧡

There are some fabulous quotes in the Winnie the Pooh books. My grandchildren have all my old books. Thank you for this post.

Thanks for reminding us. I have not had many difficult days lately, but have often had a sense of helplessness when being a piglet.
I just gave my granddaughter the book, with these pictures, a edition from the 60s. Should have carefully reread it for giving it away :)
