I’ve been to a lot of places in my own mind, bad & good. The first day of 2024 I look back at where I’ve been, where I’ve gone & the journey ahead. It’s never ending, & I’m learning to appreciate the view instead of focusing on the destination. Here’s to your journey too.
Deep depression seen here a few times..
I want to add.. The super skinny photo? Yea I was fucked then too. My 200lbs to 150lbs didn’t help. In fact it made it worse and I developed an eating disorder to go with it. The outside is not reflective of someone’s insides… the true journey is learning kindness of the self and others. You’ve got this.

The Traditional Husband.
So sick of seeing all those lists of how to be a submissive wife while there is so little talk of how to be a traditional husband. So here follows a short, in no way exhaustive lists of what is required of a traditional husband in order for him to earn the submission of his wife and children.
Remember, if you want her to submit to you, you have to prove to her that you can be trusted with the responsibility of leading her and her children.
Always put the needs and wishes of your family before your own.
Only ever speak positively of your wife in front of others, even your children.
Yes, she keeps the house, you make the money. But once you get home from work you have help out as well. How would you like to never get the day off during weekends and evenings, not to mention holidays and your own birthday?
Open doors, pull out chairs etc.
Bring home some flowers or a little gift often.
Make it up the family if you have been working late a lot or have been having trouble at work that have made distracted and maybe short tempered.
Bring back a gift when travelling for work.
Never ever act like she owes you anything sexually.
Her family is you family now.
Take responsibility for the family’s devotions. Lead the the collective ones, and support you wife and children in their private devotions.
If you have any criticism to offer, do so when you are alone together.
Show her you miss her when you are apart, including when you are at work.
Frequently praise her cooking, the house, the way she dresses and does her hair, the way she handles the children etc.
Share the heavy lifting around the house with you sons, so that your wife don’t have to do it. Remember, we are the weaker sex and all that.
Attend to you personal grooming and make the effort to look your best for you wife.
You have the final responsibility for the children’s upbringing.
What goes on in the marriage bed is strictly between you and your wife.
Certainly, you have the final word. But decision making should still be a collaborative effort. And when the children become big enough you should let them have a say as well, if for no other reason than to prepare them to take responsibility for their own lives and families.
Your wife is not a child,nor a house keeper or a prostitute, so act like a gentleman and not a tyrant.
The overriding purpose of your work is to provide for you family.
Let her know that you note and value the work she does for the family often.
Men are stronger and louder than women, so try to be gentle with her, especially when you are criticising or arguing with her.
Say “I love you” and “I am sorry” a lot.
Keep your disagreements a private as possible.
No, she doesn’t keep house for you as a reward for your work at the office. You work at the office to provide a home for you family.
Chastity is a virtue for married couples as well as for singles.
Never leave home without kissing her good bye and never return without greeting her with a kiss.
Treat your wife the way you wish your father would have treated your mother, or the way you wish that you sons in law will treat your daughters.
Keep the romance alive with gifts, compliments and dinners out.
Family before friends. Boys nights are great, but prioritise your family.
Don’t be crude or sexual in the way you talk. Again, women and gentle creatures. We do not appreciate indecencies outside of love making.
Be the example for your sons to mould their own characters after and, for your daughters, the expectations of their future husbands.

You think being obese is cute?
The fat acceptance movement is filled with the young, who are obsessed with self esteem and beauty. It is filled almost exclusively with those who fail to see the sickness, the outright darkness that awaits those who fail to care for their bodies.
You’ll never read a body positive post about some poor soul who is obese, middle aged, immobile, incontinent and laying alone on a dingy mattress. One that is heavy with their own putrid faecal matter and stained yellow with urine.
Their bed sores raw, open, red and blisteringly painful.
Their feet so badly infected that sores ooze a yellowish puss from the bulbous, useless appendage that only vaguely resembles a foot. One is left to wonder if the infection has been left untended for so long, that amputation remains the only solution.
Laying there in their filth, dehydrated, confused and with blood sugars so far out of order, invariably at some point, perhaps reaching for food, soda or a tv remote, they fall out of their bed and after crashing to the floor, they lay frozen precisely where they landed. So heavy and so ill that it is all they can do but cry out for help in the hopes a neighbour hears their cries.
Time passes, a neighbour hears them, the emergency services arrive, they force entry into the dwelling and are of course met with a stench so overpowering that it takes the breath away from even the most seasoned veteran.
It is now the job of paramedics to treat this suffering soul, no matter that they are exposing themselves to contamination or injury in moving such a heavy mass, this now becomes their problem.
This isn’t fiction, this is what awaits many who refuse to care for their own health and who view obesity as nothing more than a benign way of being.
Don’t believe it? Talk to a paramedic and yes, this is a reality that the body positive and fat acceptance movement will never, ever mention.
Reality cannot be staved off with positive thoughts, no matter how beautiful you tell yourself you all are.
This story you’re all telling yourselves about how fantastic it is to be obese, it doesn’t have a happy ending.
