One Down, Eleven More to Go

Good Morning Lovies. Happy Saturday!!! I hope the day finds you well. If something is troubling you, I send you hugs and the most positive vibes out there. For those of you who are venturing out this weekend, I hope you have a great time. 

Stay safe and please stay warm. I hope the weather cooperates with your travels.

I will be staying in my comfy lil bubble. I feel like a dick for not committing more to my writing; but there hasn't been anything extremely important I need to g4et off my chest. 

There is one topic that is always on my mind, so I feel I should talk about it; better to let it out than let it fester, right?

I see this over and over, throughout my life. People with the biggest hearts are the ones who hurt the worst. They want to help the world, but that desire is taken advantage of by pretty much everyone in their life. It's almost like, they expect it of you when you are nice to them, even once. I call these type of people "energy vampyres"... they suck everything out of you; and NOT in the good way!!!

It is usually the empaths that suffer the most. The ones in my life are for sure. We tend to forget about ourselves and give and give. We give up our wants and needs to make sure others are taken care of, ignoring the fact that we need to take care of ourselves too.

Society has made it nearly impossible for us to feel that we should put ourselves first. HOW??? All our lives, from a very young age, we are taught that to put ourselves first is completely selfish. I am thankful that somehow I no longer do that. Somewhere along the way, after being a surety for some asshole who didn't deserve it, losing over 10 grand to "help" him, among other things. (Just a prime example). I was bitter about it for a while; now? I just take it as a life lesson and carry on.

Today, I have a few people who I would drop everything to be by their side. No matter what life is throwing at me, I'd be there in a heartbeat. I guess what I am trying to get at is sometimes saying "NO" is absolutely necessary... for your own sanity and peace of mind. 

If there is one thing I wish people could take away from this blurb today it is this...

People who are always up your ass asking for things, consistently needing, but never there when you need it; or flat out disappear when you're looking for a shoulder... they are NOT friends. They are leeches/vampyres. They don't give a rat's ass about you. Yes, you will feel initially guilty for not doing as they ask; but in the long run you will feel vindicated. You will see their true colours ~ They were never a friend; so by them disappearing from your life, it's one less burden to bear. Get me???

This is where I am always saying, being an empath is a blessing and a curse. Life would be so much more simple if we didn't care so deeply. All I can say to end this off is I am going to protect those I love from people taking advantage of them any more. They aren't your puppet. They are not your bank, your punching bag, your chauffeur, their home is not a flop house. 

Basically they are not yours to lay all your problems on. Their shoulders are their own, and you have no right to place all your shit on them. I am here to make sure it doesn't happen any more. See, I don't care if that makes me a bitch, or whatever you choose to call me. You are NOT my concern, and your opinion of me, is not my business. Go fight and deal with your own crap; leave my people alone!!!

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

I Just Don't Get It

Page 344 of 365. Good Afternoon my dear Lovies. I come today with a story that really affected me. I am going to post the link here, so you can all see what is pulling at my heart strings, both with mad respect, gratefulness and outrage... all wrapped into one. Link :   KING OF THE DAY Now that you have seen the video, what are your thoughts??? I am not one that has the right to throw stones, as I am and never was a great mom. I am not going to make excuses for my actions and take full responsibility for them. I did the best I could, at the time I did them. One thing, my kids can never say, is their mom doesn't love them!!! Before I express what I truly think... I almost feel like there is context missing from this.  I give this man a lot of respect and praise. He saw something was amiss, and instead of ignoring it, he did the right thing to do... The sad part about the whole situation is he DID record it. I mean, it was a good thing to have, it's just maddening that some...

I Will Never

Page 346 of 365. Good Afternoon Lovies. We have finished another work week, and we are quickly approaching the end of 2025. This year has been rough for a lot of people. Honestly, here in Canada it has really been the last 5 years. Watching people suffer, break and even die by the boat loads over these 5 years has been heartbreaking. The worst part about it is none of them died from this supposed COVID. Don't get me wrong, I fully acknowledge that COVID was a serious, serious FLU; but it was NOT what the media and governments claimed it to be. COVID caused hell in ways that has nothing to do with medical! Families crumbled ~ over finances, opposing decisions about the jab, losing jobs, being confined together 24/7. Lack of resources, the mental toll. People who have taken the jab (several of them, even), are dying of rapidly deteriorating illnesses that could only be caused by the vaccination the government forced on people. Unbelievable side effects and devastating diagnosis becau...

Say What Now???

I know... I am contradicting the picture, but who would I be, if I kept my mouth shut on such a sensitive subject???  I have never been one to shy away from voicing my opinion, and I sure as hell am not going to stop now... I was just scrolling through social media when I landed on an article that  BLEW MY MIND!!! I cannot find the link right now; if I do find it, I will add it to this blurb at a later time... basically, if you are Canadian, more specifically from Ontario, generally in Toronto, Ontario or the GTA (Greater Toronto Area)... this is something you should all be reading up on. HERE IS THE LINK: Black Mandated Shelters!!! (Read article here) There is an organization called B3... well city council has passed it, and now they are creating BLACK MANDATED HOMELESS SHELTERS, where everyone from the staff to the residents are Black or of African descent... People are sending in applications, and according to the government, they do not have to have any experience to run a...
