Kittens have not been alive long enough to pretend they know what is going on. And that is the exact mood for this Wednesday.

We've reached the middle of the week, operating with the same confidence as a kitten entering a room without knowing why it went there. Monday had a plan. Tuesday followed it closely enough. Now, Wednesday's plans are a bit blurry. This day catches us staring at the same screen for half an hour, wondering whether we'll make ourselves another coffee or just wait until lunchtime comes.

Kittens understand that kind of confusion. They can't explain where the week went or how there can still be so much left to do. They will provide company for people who are just as confused as them, though they are considerably softer. If kittens can continue without knowing what is happening, so can we. The only difference is that they make uncertainty look adorable.

On Wednesdays, we humans lose all sense of time. We check the clock, certain that the afternoon must be nearly over, but then we discover that it's still 10:30 in the morning. Maybe you should really go get another cup of coffee now.

Kittens also have a similar relationship with time. Five minutes after breakfast can feel like a lifetime without food, while an hour spent chasing a bug on the wall can pass unnoticed. That's life. Slow parts take forever and small distractions can consume the whole day.

The truth is, we only need to choose a direction and move toward it. It doesn't matter if it's Monday, Wednesday, or Friday. We are all equally unsure of what is happening; we all get easily distracted by everything, but if we're still determined to continue, then that's the goal. Stick to that. If necessary, we can stop for lunch and continue later. And let the cats help too. These kitten memes are here to make the hours move a little faster. Remember Thursday is waiting on the other side, and it feels so much closer to the weekend.
