Blogdom

*This was just a lovely rant about why I was deleting people and why I shouldn't have wigged out when some deleted me and have been 'accommodating' to an extent as not to offend and drive some to delete me.

I just catch myself censoring my words when I shouldn't have to. I should just let people do as they wish as far as deleting me. Also there are some people I've added that I tried to just go with their differing beliefs and viewpoints, but when I start getting spammed and seeing things that piss me off, my FB isn't my happy place anymore. I like to think I am a tolerant, kind, diverse, open minded person, but when I don't feel I'm getting the same respect back, or that I can just flat out express my own personal opinions without having to defend myself, it's time for a cleaning. I am still growing and learning but when I'm getting opinions I don't want & didn't ask for shoved at me, I get pissed. I try & live & let live, but some others can't do that. It's nothing personal about anyone, I just don't want to read your religious, political, racist, mean spirited or anal & closed minded thoughts anymore. You have every right to have them, that doesn't mean I have to like or be apart of them.

I love, respect and try very hard to tolerate and see other people's views, I wasn't always cynical and unbelieving. I could thump Bibles and freak Jesus with the best of 'em. And the level of just mean, acidic hatred and venom being tolerated and spewed about political and world figures from nothing but glorified shock-talk show hosts is sickening to me, I've had enough of it.
I guess it's kind of like those toxic relationships we hear about. It feels like it's gassing the air around me and scraping fingernails at my mind when I have to repeatedly see things that disconcert me. I don't need it in my life, like I don't need an eyelash in my eyeball
I am by NO MEANS perfect at all! I do not claim to be. But I AM trying. I am striving to continue learning and growing and being a better me, better Mother, better Grandma, better Daughter, better American, better Human, better energy on this planet and in this Universe and hopefully that learning will continue until I die or after.

The Mess Of Writing

So, some of you know I pretend to be a writer. I was a prolific and mildly talented writer in my past. I dreamed novel sized stories, but could never get past the short ones, there were a couple I wrote out to 150 pages with the outline and general story written out, but they died there. It took me years to both realize and then accept, that I was no good at anything but some hybrid of prose and poetry that is heavily non conforming to the accepted rules of writing, grammar and english. My problem is rooted somewhere in one or more of my mental illnesses, I just can't absorb nor comprehend (translate to an understandable example) accepted structure and rules for any type of writing.  The words go down on the paper the way they come into my head. They don't want to be amended, they come into my head the way my mind perceives them to be correct and meaningful to what I am trying to express, which in my skewed brain, is the correct form, again, to ME, but maybe not to anyone else....

Just Think Blogsitive

For whatever reason, Facebook altering the "mood" of the Feed or just people picking up on the same theme of a few reposted sayings; I've been seeing so much over the last few weeks about thinking/being positive and being happy is a choice. Believe me you, I tried. I tried so hard for so long. It was like mining, every day I would go to work with my pick and with everything I had, go at that dark, stifling underground of resistant rock with my polished, shining pick, flashing brilliantly in the dust filled muted ray of light struggling down, striking in a dazzling tiny shower of sparks, tiny stars lighting the edge of the black hole lurking beside me, that feeling of what could be hidden just below the surface, something amazing just waiting for the proper angle of my next strike...that never comes. Oh, I get the thin, reedy vein of something momentarily in the right light flashing and promising...it may be a lesser find. It will momentarily fund the repair of my pick or...

Seriously?

Originally Written by the13thcynic October 6, 2009 at 5:13 PM I cannot be serious. Seriously. I can’t. I keep trying and it never works, I just can’t BE serious. I can fully appreciate serious and situations that are… I can understand it, hold it, feel it, express it in other ways, I just cannot *be…have* nor verbally reply seriously unless I really fight to accomplish such. Felt the need to see it in words. Carry on then. I am not stupid. I am not shallow. I’m not unfeeling nor simple, clueless, ridiculous, uneducated, uncultured or ignorant. I’m just me. Which is a bit more than a bit much to take for some.
