"You will always find an answer in the sound of water."

Winds of Change

A pop-culture icon was very famous around the world, but they lamented the fact that they did not have any close friends.

Ever since they were little, they had been forced into the spotlight.

Despite having accrued a wealth of talent and skill to entertain the world over…

...they regretted not having the regular life of a normal kid.

This thinking depressed the icon so much that they saw a therapist.

They gave the whole situation to the therapist, and they responded thus:

“The idea of a tornado is such a force of nature, that before it even forms, its forecast leads people to hunker down and seek shelter.”

“Fear causes the impetus to act, even if the event ultimately does not occur.”

“Why are you, of all people, so afraid of what does not exist?”
