Daily ‘Cartoon’ #252

I am studying a book called, The Age of Overwhelm. The content describes the many ways in which we each experience overwhelm daily in our culture.

It is dense reading. The author wisely added a New Yorker Magazine cartoon every few pages to enable the reader to pause, take a breath of relief and smile.

It is in this spirit that I have been putting up one image per day for my subscribers. A chance to pause, inhale and exhale to give your mind a momentary break before resuming your day. I hope it does

Under a sketch by a distant relative, dated March 20, 1874, Billy contemplates the image of a cat. After studying the drawing, I heard him mumble, “I don’t understand what these humans see in this two-dimensional world.”
