I would do anything for...

..... LOVE and those I care about; Do what you feel in your heart to be right - for you'll be criticized anyway."-- Eleanor Roosevelt. I feel like Melissa Ethridge's song," I wanna come over." The lyrics don't really apply like they did a year ago, because the situation is different, but the music video itself in that car and how she feels, same exact moment. What the hell is the point if you cannot say what you feel and mean it with all you have? Love hard. The whole don't tell is stupid. When I am with someone, I claim them and I mark territory because I want the world to know I chose them, and they aren't anyone elses. It's interesting how someone can silence you, tell you no. You cannot ask someone to care the way you do and how much you do. This doesn't make or yourself a coward. I would be lying if I said this didn't hurt. That heartbreak with a friend is easy. It is not like How I Met Your Mother, or Friends where you can go strai...

People pleasers make for exhausting relationships. I know this very well. I have been one of them.   I wanted to impress others, get with the crowd, or be liked. I say whatever I can, do whatever I can, and hope in the end they will like me. Maybe what I missed entirely is that if they do not already like and accept you, that’s their problem, not yours. My heart overflows with what I can do, and not   how God wants me to be. Forget the idea whether you are a believer or not. Who do I need to be for me? The storm is the same; it comes crashing down on me emotionally, then I combust into a thousand particles exponentially like a meteor asteroid across the sky.   The point at which I try to justify myself becomes too much and some people lose what I am really saying, or what I even mean. I have never been a fan of excess lazy days that require lots of rest when sick; who does really. I’m never really alone, but my mind begins to believe that I am. That maybe, I haven’t d...

Parenting : child rearing versus dog ownership

Owning my fur baby although amazing and a blessing in disguise and wonderful for my life and needs, it can be challenging and frustrating. Everyone has their own way of raising kids, so do they with parenting and teaching their animals they own. I have found, it is far better to discuss your problem and or issues with a few people rather than a lot. Sooner or later, everyone is giving you their own advice on how to raise or train said child or kid. For instance, when I was growing up my parents used a spoon and spankings to punish us when we disobeyed, even put soap on our tongues. In contrast, other parents refuse to discipline their kids, but often find that taking away toys or privileges is enough and sufficient to do the trick to get their kids to learn the rules. So in turn, is it different with dogs, on how owners train and treat them. I know some people who let their dogs lead when talking a walk, sleep in their beds, rule the roost, and eat anything off the table. Others are ...

That was then this is now? New Yrs Res again?!

That was then this is now? New Yrs Res again?! Hello 2016! (Kellie Pickler on spotify and Air Supply) A couple weeks ago, I ran into an old high school guy my sister dated. I used to think he was too cool for school and well actually kind of a jerk. He was with a girl that was my friend's daughter. I was out for happy hour with a friend and she leaned lver and said, do you know this guy? I looked over and smiled. It could not be. This guy was the very same one who I watched be a player to others. His face was confused. Do I know you? Yes, actually last name Vigeant, you knew my sister. The man couldnt contain himself he was stoked, he kept asking about her, where and how she was, what was she up to. His poor girl, what a mess. I had had a good night, and told him she's surfing and living life and its crazy fun and nutso challenges down south. I left before it got more interesting, but in reality I felt thrilled for my sister.  That was then, this is now. I am a fuckup. ...
