"If I Could Read My Mind Love...

 

... what a tale your thoughts could tell. I don't know where we went wrong. But the feeling's gone and I just can't get it back. You know that ghost is me. And I will never be set free. As long as I'm a ghost that you can't see."   ~ Gordon Lightfoot

(Just a song that reminds me of my youth, and sweet innocent times)

Page 58 of 365. Good Morning Lovies. I hope Thor's Day treats you well. I can, (and cannot), believe we are on the second last day of February already. Some days I am super grateful that time is slipping by so quickly, other times I wish I could savour the moments; simply stop time.

I look around and cannot stand how much our world and society has changed. Yes, I admit there have been a few changes that were necessary; but some movements didn't bring us forward as a people... it segragated an already shattered community and world. It's painful to watch.

The brutally honest truth of life is that it is NOT fair... to ANY of us. We are all victims of our own environments, one way or another. Not too long ago, I was having a conversation with someone, and I was discussing how I was 8 months pregnant and needed to go on "mother's allowance", as no one was going to hire a woman who is about to have a baby. When I had the meeting with the social worker... the first words out of her mouth were, "You're a white woman, living in Canada, there is no reason you cannot work!" (This was back in 1996). 

This would be the first, but definitely not the last time I would be subjected to people's views of "WHITE PRIVILEGE". FYI... every skin colour, every shade of wheat is  and has been discriminated against.

I totally went off the rails on what I wanted to share today...

I saw somewhere that school boards were notifying parents about the health curriculum coming up, and that it was involving children from grades 1 - 8. It would be about sexuality, genders, inclusion, and various new views. Parents are a given a certain amount of time to refuse their child from being in this class. This is my opinion...

Children, at least here in Ontario, can begin junior kindergarten at the age of 4. (I am eternally grateful they are not subjected to anything that has to do with sexuality at that age). I am still mortified that children, beginning at the age of 5 or 6 are being taught things that no CHILD should be subjected to. I think back to when I was that age... and I loved being a tomboy. I enjoyed playing all the sports, loved playing in the mud and couldn't be put in a frilly dress if you gave me all the ice cream and candy in the world back then. 

That being said, counsellors would have taken it as a cue that I wanted to be a boy, and encourage that behaviour. REALLY???

People may call me a bigot, homophobic, racist, etc. NO, I am just being REAL!!! I have friends  and family who are gay, bi and trans... I love them all; so strangers' opinions of me is insignificant to me.

Adults can do whatever the hell they want to do behind closed doors, as long as it's not harming animals and children. This is not what children should be taught, they are already going to be confused enough with everything the world is throwing at them. 

I do NOT think this should be an elementary school curriculum at all. Maybe highschool, but not to little impressionable minds.

I am just sick of this agenda being pushed and shoved into our faces daily; at the end of the day no one cares what your sexuality is. There are only two genders, scientifically no one has been able to prove that otherwise.

This whole "Identifying" thing is nonsensical to me.... Like how does a human identify as a cat (for example)??" What makes a human get up one day and say... "Hey, I am a cat. I will no longer use a toilet, I will use a litterbox, and now eat food out of a dish on the floor. Who came up with the brilliant idea that this was the new norm??? 

Let's go back to the sexual thing. I really don't care if you're hetero, bi, homo, etc. It's not my business... so why do you feel the profound need to share it with the world??? It's not like I walk up to someone and say, "Hi. I'm Phoenix and I am a heterosexual." 

See how stupid that sounds???
