Is there anything that Ziggy doesn’t know? In the cartooning universe, he’s often placed in hopeless situations, pitted against a world that doesn’t make sense. He’s an agreeable punchline for the quirks of human nature. Yet he’s able to brush off his mishaps and focus on the opportunities that today brings. He can also look to the future with hope, knowing full well that more struggles may lie ahead. Most of all, he can look at himself and have a good chuckle. Do you make yourself anxious about things that might happen or stew over mistakes you’ve made? Don’t let a preoccupation with tomorrow or yesterday rob your ability to face that crazy world with a smile. For Ziggy, today is today. It’s not a good day, it’s not a bad day. It’s a day. And he knows that it’s important to give that day the value it deserves.
