A short story
The Campfire part 3
"Well even if you dont find it funny, I can still do jokes" said the afro racoon. The atmosphere started getting tense.
"You see, what we say can have an effect on others, but on us as well. And if you always talk negatively about your self, then you could start thinking too negative about yourself and if that becomes a habit it can be toxic." said the alien

The alien chuckled and noded.
