I Am Sorry My Words Can't Do Justice Right Now

Page 254 of 365.

Good Morning Lovies. 

I doubt my words will do justice for everything that we are all thinking and feeling this morning; but I will give it my best shot.

Today, many of us, sit quietly and reflect on the unimaginable damage that was caused in Manhattan 24 years ago today. Over 3,000 people lost, in an event that shook the world. 

To this day, many will never forget where they were standing when the first plane hit the Twin Towers, and a nightmare unfolded before our very eyes!!! The fear, the anguish, the anger and loss that united most of the world; at least for a moment. 

A day the world literally felt like it stood still, I know it was eeriely quiet for me and my family, as we lived an a flight path for Toronto Pearson International Airport, and there wasn't a single plane flying for a day, or two.

Last night, we all witnessed a shocking assassination of someone who was very influential to the newer generation. He was controversial in the sense where he was very devote in his faith (which was Christianity) ~ don't get it twisted. I am not saying this is a bad thing. 

He was strong in his faith, he spoke truths many didn't want to hear, and he stood his ground on his beliefs; BUT he always invited people to express their views, and had opened the doors for debates... many of which left his opponents dumbfounded, and speechless.

Charlie Kirk, he was 31 years old. A husband. A father. A son. ... SAY HIS NAME!!!

No matter where you stood politically. No matter where you stood religiously... He was a human being, who was murdered. He was killed, in front of a crowd of university students. He was assassinated in front of his two young daughters, and his wife!!! 

There is nothing right about this. 

My blood is boiling. Seeing and hearing people laugh at the death of another human being is soooo disturbing. I am trying to NOT make this about politics, because that is a whole other debate, and Charlie Kirk, his family, and loved ones deserve so much more than that right now.

Stay safe. Stay cool/warm. Be well. Be blessed. Most of all, Be LOVED!!!

Good evening lovies. I have been struggling with something that is very close to my heart. I truly do not know where to proceed next. I'm going to try and make a very long story as simple as I can... I was adopted at 5months of age, (well apprehended at 5 months, adopted at 5 years). There is something that adoptees yearn for all their lives... WHY?  I know for me there were many questions and on my 19th birthday it appeared I was going to get those answers when I met the woman who birthed me. Unfortunately, I was sorely mistaken!!! Years went by, and I allowed this woman to have control over certain things that were weighing heavily on my heart, She held the one piece of the puzzle that felt missing from my heart... who my biological father was?!! I, one day decided that I wasn't going to allow another person have that kind of control over me... EVER!!! I left the situation alone. I struggled deeply. I was literally at war with myself. on this topic. In a way, I felt guilty th...

It's a Hide Under the Covers Kinda Day

Page 14 of 365. Good Afternoon Lovies. I really, really hope your day is going better than mine!!! Sorry, woke up at the asscrack of dawn, as I had a doctor's appointment this morning.  Thankfully it was with my family doctor; appointments with him are fairly painless.  Today, however; things kinda went sideways.  I am usually in and out within 10 mins for these appts, but today? I was there for over 45 minutes. Of course, it didn't help that I was puking maroon blood in the office. I know, I don't share a lot of my medical nor really personal stuff on here, but just so you're aware, this has been happening daily since end of May/beginning of June last year. I am what they call an "anemic blood clotter" which I didn't think was possible, but apparently it runs on the paternal side of my family. Anyways, that was the main focus of my visit after that. My stomach medication is being switched AGAIN, this time I am being set up with an antibiotic (which is cra...

Tis the Season.... Why I Am Proud of Local Tattoo Shop!!!

  Page 307 of 366. Good Afternoon Lovies. I am not sure how long this blurb is going to be; as it seems to be a topic I have been beating to death this past year. I know it is the time of the year where we switch from Halloween/Samhain into Thanksgiving (in the US) to Yule/Christmas season.  I hate pointing out this fact, but people seem to feel like Christmas time is the only time of the year that they should be charitable...  Is it out of guilt that you are donating, or is it because you genuinely feel you should be helping people??? I AM sort of calling you out because this is NOT the only time of the year that the homeless, or the downtrodden need help. I cannot stand that this is around the only time you will see non-stop commercials/ads or billboards that are asking for help with various charities; also the time we see commercials about driving under the influence. WHY IS THAT??? Driving under the influence is a year-long problem... I will not get into details about...
