There have certainly been times in my life where I've been devoid of all emotion, except maybe anger. Sometimes rage fuels me to be stronger, better, smarter, faster. I worry sometimes that therapy weakened me, taking my strengths as a woman and turning me into a neutered puppy. But lately, due to serious concerns about … Continue reading Blank, Empty, Devoid
Pieces Of Me
Thank God It’s Saturday!
I hate the traditional work week, which is probably why I don't have a "traditional" job. Granted, with my injury and upsetting things going on in my personal life, I spent most of my week making phone calls, practicing self-care, doing extensive research, texting with a close family member, and trying not to commit any … Continue reading Thank God It’s Saturday!
As We Grow…
This is such an incredible message to share. I hope it means as much to everyone else as it does to me. I do not know when I'll be able to write a new post, unfortunately, but I will do my best. I fractured a couple of bones in my right hand and due to … Continue reading As We Grow…
How Honest Are People About Their Mental Health? This Might Surprise You…
Facebook needs to institute a better policy involving "friending". Even with strict filtering, I have people sending me friend requests simply because they like something I've said. Why in the world would you want to be "friends" with someone who is simply the same astrological sign as you, or just happens to also be a … Continue reading How Honest Are People About Their Mental Health? This Might Surprise You…
What To Say?
What to say? Oh, what to say? This is a challenging week, and it's only Wednesday. My blood pressure has been through the roof from stress since last week. Medication gets taken as needed, and then I get sleepy. Under normal circumstances, my blood pressure is always normal, unless you piss me off. Needless to … Continue reading What To Say?
I Go Through Phases
I don't know anyone that doesn't feel like this at times. It's a delicate balance.
Pie For Breakfast
When someone brings you two pies, each covered in chunks of Oreo cookies, with an Oreo cookie crust, and whipped cream as the filling to this confection, do you ignore this sugary delight before you (Especially when you've had minimal sugar for months on end.) or do you blissfully enjoy a few bites? I have … Continue reading Pie For Breakfast
I’d Hoped For A Thunderstorm
For every weather site and app that predicted thunderstorms last night into today; I am not happy with you. Deliver your predictions, lest people start believing that you "cold read" the weather to begin with and aren't actually looking at all the colorful charts and fancy equipment you like to show us and claim is … Continue reading I’d Hoped For A Thunderstorm
Long Days, Short Nights
The days are way too long. The nights are too fucking short. Sleep is hard to come by, but man, I'm trying. I was raised to believe that doing your best is "enough", providing it is truly "your best". I suffer from "Superwoman Syndrome". This is a real thing. I'm an overachiever that has this … Continue reading Long Days, Short Nights
Radiance
Far too many people suppress themselves to appease others. I adamantly REFUSE. We all tell our children they can be anything they want to be, and over time, we dull their shine and the shine of others by laughing at hopes, dreams, and goals. There is little support in this world, but mountains full … Continue reading Radiance
