Am I Garfield the fat, orange cat?

We all have someone that we can relate to but how about a fat, orange, comic- strip cat called Garfield? Whether the person or character acts, thinks, or even dresses like you, there is that connection between you two that makes it more special. It can help a person feel like they are not alone in a situation and give them a boost in confidence. Garfield may be an average, fat, orange- striped cat and I may be just another person dealing with common struggles, yet we both still manage to find the joy and entertainment of everyday life.

Who doesn't love food? But I feel that Garfield and I share a common aspect on this subject. Food is not only a necessity of life but as a love for life. Food finds a way to never let a person down.

Lasagna, ice cream, donuts, Jon's dinner, and coffee are just a few foods on Garfield's infinite list of the foods he loves. He always starts the day off with a large breakfast that he labors on Jon to make for him. Mealtimes are always followed with a relaxing nap in the sun.

As for me, it really depends on the "season" to dictate what foods I will absolutely crave over like summer times call for shaved ice and iced bubble tea. In general though, put a plate in front of me with food and I will love you with never-ending passion.

No matter what background a person comes from; food finds a way to please anyone. It could just be a simple Thanksgiving dinner made by Jon's ecstatic grandma or a weekday night dinner with just me and my mom. Yet, an element of joy can be found within every experience with food such a funny, Kodak picture- perfect face when a food brings out a surprised result. Food discovers a way to help end a down kind of day into a day that just got a little more interesting.

In the end, Garfield and I know that food is filled with plenty of surprises that turn every average day into an adventurous day.
