If you love me let me go

A couple of months ago I got a new CD. There was this one song that nearly made me cry the first time I listened to it. And I just had this very intense feeling while listening to it, I could relate on so many levels. Even though, most of the things in the lyrics […]

choice, family, freedom, hope, I don't appreciate unsolicited advice, I don't need people to understand I just need them to support, i have to do what is right for me, i trust my feeling, let me go, love, my life my choices, sometimes to love means to let go, support should not be conditional, understanding, what is right for me might not be right for you

Instincts and crazy expectations

There is just something about little children that is so very special. They are so precious, the way they see the world, their innocence and how they still trust their instincts. I find it fascinating how they don’t yet know the concept of good or evil, but they know who they can trust or not. […]

a scared child is trying to tell you something, bodily integrity, children, don't force physical contact on them, family, protect the children, take your child's feelings seriously, there are reasons behind every extreme reaction, trust your child's instinct, why is this so difficult to understand, you can be family and a stranger at the same time

Sometimes I feel too much

Sometimes I worry that I’ve grown cold, that I’m no longer capable of feeling sorrow at horrible events that are happening all the time all around the world. I feel like I’ve been desensitized, or I don’t know… I think a lot of people would assume I don’t care when they hear some of the […]

building walls, compassion, desensitized, empath, empathy, government overreach, isolation, love, protect yourself, selfpreservation, too much pain in the world

Hypocrisy

Maybe it’s just me but the longer the more I notice just how insane the hypocrisy in society is. I know so many people talking about how horrible the working conditions for people in the factories in China, or Bangladesh, or all of those other places are. How little money they get paid, how the […]

be the change you want to see, buy cheap shit, change the world, choice, corporations, fast-fashion, hypocrisy, i am my biggest motivation, i find it pretty funny actually, makes no sense at all, motivation, pay fair wages, save money, save the economy, self-interst

Family

There is something about family that is just so fascinating to me. You don’t get to choose the family you are born into, at least not knowingly. You spent your entire childhood with your family, the good, the bad, the ugly. They are always there in one way or another. You get along or you […]

family, family is fascinating, I love them more than anything in the world, I wouldn't be friends with them, love, nothing is more important, there is nothing I wouldn't do for them, you are stuck with them

We focus on the wrong things

I don’t know why I’m still surprised by people and what they put their focus on, what they consider important or valuable. Several people in my family considers nothing I have accomplished in the past 10 years as valuable or as something proper. I’ve worked the front desk of a hotel for more than 10 […]

achievements, choice, family, family is weird, focus on the right thing, happiness, my time is my own, people don't get it, the audacity of some people, work versus school

It is what it is

Life is strange… sometimes I’m in this weird emotional and headspace and it’s very difficult for me to do any of the things I know I should do because they would help me get out of that kind of limbo I’m in and help me feel better. It is also especially difficult for me to […]

choice, emotionally exhausted, family, freedom, government overreach, I'm sorry, life is strange, love, mental issues sort of, needed a break, weird headspace

Common courtesy

Honestly, I don’t get why it is so very difficult for people to just write a short reply. It doesn’t take much and very little time nowadays. If you get a message, if you see and read the message, why can’t you simply type a quick reply? Is that too much to ask for? Especially […]

annoying, common courtesy, it is not that difficult, it's called being polite, just give a quick reply, rudeness, society

Society needs to relearn humility

One of the biggest problems we currently have in society is that everyone takes everything so personally. Every little thing is looked at as a personal slight and people tend to forget, that the world does not revolve around them and other people have stuff they are going through too. Here’s an example: A person […]

be more humble, everyone has stuff, hope, love, not everything is about you, the kindness of strangers, this is why I write, this means more to me than they will ever know

Not sure what the point of this is

This might be an unpopular opinion, but I don’t get pride month, or black history month or any other month or day like that, except Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. I get those two, at least symbolically and I always loved to surprise my mom with breakfast or a handmade present for her as a […]

accept people the way they are, be who you are, don't force things on me, equality means the same, hypersexualization, it's a bit much, months are to determine a date in the calendar, pride month, unnecessary, why does every month need to have a virtue signal
