Clarity is hard-earned. I won't apologize for it. I'm gonna write it out. All the feelings. All the pain. All the healing. I'm finding Joy in the Journey, recognizing where I came from, and not being quiet..setting myself FREE on THIS side. Can you relate?
Q-ANON General Mike Flynn and convicted felon…. targeting a Veteran who served his country. Shameful. Let’s make this go viral so this Veteran can testify before Congress in front of idiot Jim “Gym” Jordan who permitted SA to happen for years at OSU. Soooo “Christian” of them!
I hate this regime.

I’ve known and watched for a while now. I began resisting and speaking out about the GOP when I broke away. I have left relationships behind and am still doing so because the GOP left me a long time ago.

When you add it up, some things you keep, some things you toss. Some things you need to remember for a time so you can recall parts of who you were so you can remember where you’ve been. You can’t go there again, you can’t take a different path, you can only be in the present at any given time.

I know, to most, this looks like a mess. To me, each of these items show me who I am now versus who I was, ever always, in the in-between. Did I put myself here? This answer is a little more complex, ...

It’s so clear to anyone who removes the emotion from the equation and looks at the evidence. Many of these “episodes” occurred on LIVE camera just like much of his populous statements and his apathy toward the “other,” whomever that might be at the time. A conman performing the greatest con.🙄

Well, to be accurate, my momma would be swimming with sea turtles, her Angel soul trying to help them be safe. My grandmother is the one who’d be turning over in her grave or maybe out a’haunting!

What IS happening when no one is watching? I’ve been aware of for-profit prisons. My 💔 broke earning that grade, but I don’t turn away from the dark. I shine a light. Do wyte people remember the 1800 Japanese souls WE killed before? Will hatred snuff out the beacon of light that is “America”? Open 👀

Remigration is nothing but Naziism packaged a different way to make it more palatable. That way, those that still secretly believe this way, that wyte people are better, can justify their hate. Call it for what it is.

One of my daughters, when she was born, had some medical issues. They wanted to keep her and send me home without her. It didn’t happen because I locked myself in the bathroom, hysterical, and fought the insurance company. I can’t even imagine what immigrant mothers are going through.💔

My sleep schedule is all messed up, likely my full body schedule, too, because I’ve been living on sheer adrenaline, I think, to get through my Algebra II final.

It’s the FINAL crunch of the semester. Is there a different word that holds more power than “tired” or “exhausted?” I may have surpassed or worn out the use of those two because they’re not descriptive enough.

Woman of a Certain Age here!🖐️I did try dating after my divorce, after a reasonable healing time. Turned out there was nothing out there for me….and it wasn’t “me” after all. So many broken ppl out here. Maybe, patriarchy, is the cause of the loneliness epidemic.

Hello Universe! I could use a little extra help at this time! I am grateful for all the many blessings in my life, and I am so abundant in so many things...just not materially at this time.

So, if anyone has the means to help, I sure would appreciate it!
