“My fear now is how many people will miss the message of my words because I say things that align with their souls but not with their ears. We are a species that was taught to weigh our beliefs against what is socially acceptable and that is the template our ears hear from. But our spirits know that we are just souls…inhabiting a vessel.”

“When I decide to tear her self-esteem apart by minimizing the kind of mother she is…I add to the abuse that she already needs to heal from. And I do it knowing that she needs to be in a good state of mind in order to be the best mother she can be to her child. So my ongoing decision to discard my self-control, just so I can feel satisfied in the moment, still affects her and the child I claim to love.”

“I was the only one in the family who wasn’t extended an invitation to the funeral. I have to be honest and say that prior to his funeral…I did tell the chat I was going to show up wearing a t-shirt that stated “He died an adulterer”…but this was after I wasn’t invited. Was I out of line for saying what I said?…I plead the seventh…(‘bipolar’).”

“So when I say I’ve been engaged in an abusive relationship with my ‘family’ for the last 4 years…there is no trace of exaggeration in my words. Their intention is to (re)silence the voice I spent years fighting to get back because they know that when I use it…it renders them speechless. Telling the truth really does shame the devil(s).”

“One of the worst arguments my older brother and I ever got into was about his inability to give my 2nd oldest niece a hug after she experienced some bullying at school by a girl that she was convinced was her friend. My brother and I spent weeks arguing about it in the chat and to this day he has never as much as hinted at understanding why I felt a hug from him to his child was appropriate.”

“It would make sense for me to be happy that what I’ve been asking for all these years finally appears to be taking shape…but I’m nonsensical. If their behavior came before they assumed I was turning my pain into profit it would’ve been a lot easier for me to trust their intentions but these hoes aren’t slick.”

“It’s my birthday bish! Aside from having 1 family member left, no friends, and no ‘my man her man our man’…I’m still settled into my stability. I know the plan of my bitter bloodline was to have me too distraught to bring this new year in with gratitude but…I gratefully entered year ThirtyAte.”

“Unfortunately for him, and a lot of other men, their seeds require the kind of connection that can’t be bought. We appreciate finances but solid relationships also require a foundation of feelings. If that isn’t given…it makes it that much easier for offspring to disconnect from parental presence when we have the option to choose for ourselves as we get older.”

“My niece’s birthday is coming up so I’ve been trying to be a ballet dancing bull in my little sister’s China shop to get an invite. I haven’t missed a birthday since she was born but the child’s mother has made my twin miss one before. So I know she’s more than capable of putting her own frustration before the happiness of this child…just like her own single mother.”

“I have always felt an intense connection to the authenticity of all things outside because it’s the only environment on this Planet that takes full dominion over its existence. The birds aren’t asking other birds for a lift, the blades of grass aren’t asking other blades to stay down so they can come up, and the squirrels aren’t out there asking for nut assistance. Everything is naturally autonomous and nothing is led by ego.”

“Being the ground that is landed on when that other shoe drops can only be endured for so long and I can not. I don’t like how it feels when I’m caught off guard with the true nature of individuals who I’d rather pretend are who they aren’t…so I’m choosing to keep their true form in my frontal lobe while moving accordingly.”
