Here are my cat Alexa and I on *her* (!) sofa wishing you a happy Tuesday. As I was saying in my last post, I wanted to tell you more about the forthcoming Cats & Coffee Cups album. So here are a few thoughts about the opening track called It’s Okay.

This is the second verse:

“It’s okay to be too scared to talk
It’s okay to be lost in your thoughts
To dream away
And that’s okay…”

The song is inspired by The Comfort Book by Matt Haig. Critics said “This book feels like a giant hug “. I hope this song feels that way, too.

For me “it’s okay” is the ultimate comfort message. Just to hear someone say “it’s okay” calms my nervous system. I live with constant interior anxiety and am in a constant fight or flight state. There have been many situations when I was judged for how I felt when all I needed was consolation and a hug, and all I needed to hear was “Don’t worry, it’s okay.”So these days, I’m telling myself. And I’m telling you: it’s okay. And so does Alexa.

In which phrase do you find comfort?
