A price I’m never willing to pay again is losing myself just for the sake of keeping another person.

What Character Would You Be?

Daily writing promptIf you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why?View all responses The first character that came to mind is, Russell from the movie “Up.” He always stayed by everyone’s side. He did his best to cheer everyone around him, up. He was always striving to be better. He wanted to help everyone. That movie teaches us so much about how aging is messy and…

Grow in Wisdom

In the garden of life, we sow and reap, Learning lessons, both shallow and deep. Each day a new page, a fresh chapter begun, Under the watchful eye of the rising sun. We stumble, we fall, but we rise once more, Each failure, a key to a different door. In the school of life, there's no final exam, Just an endless journey, a lifelong tram. Wisdom is not a destination, but a path, Not a result of…

POSITIVE WEDNESDAY: The lessons experience gives you are sometimes difficult but ultimately worth learning

[kailnonymous]

Little by little, your importance has decreased. I still think about you and I hope your day has been well. But to me, you've just become another learning lesson that I can take with me to my future days.

International Women’s Day and Dating Update 2019.

Hey guys!  Its been a long time, but I’ve decided it’s time for an update.

Time to write the truth and unravel some nasty and disappointing things on dating. 

In the past 3 months, I have met and tried out some dating apps. Tinder, OkCupid, POF and Bumble. These are great dating apps, but the people on there are not. 

Today society seems to believe that meeting someone is only through online dating apps. 

Do not get me wrong! I believe that too because were limitless towards going out and finding someone. 

If you approach someone:

you are creepy.

you come up offensive.

your judged within 5 minutes. 

In the past couple of months, I’ve had some more messed up dates. 

Let’s start story time ! 

1) Rab. 

This was an on going chapter for 3 month’s. We went out and off, but because of working 247 we couldn’t be together. We would pull away and try to keep touch again. He always tried to portray it as physically relationship, but I never let it happen. 

You know it’s not right when someone is trying to rush you into something or only talk about sex only with you. 

Why is it that because your nice girl, guys think they can get in your head. When you stand up and don’t go in their bed then your the bad guy? Your the odd one out? 

Yet these are the people who will come running back into your life, saying that their sorry and begging for another chance to start over. 

NOT ME! I have the the 3 rule strike. 

Mess up 3 times and your out ! Within those couple months it happened ! 

2) Dip. 

This was a short chapter of a friend. We met, again he was a busy guy. Building himself and career. However, he has no time for himself, which instead he wanted a caretaker than a girlfriend. 

Omg..... you know the term man baby... yuppp that’s him. 

Stay on the phone, vent about life, only want to talk about them, they need support, they need help.... 

Any mention about yourself he would reply something needy like this:

“aww... but cmon today I ate an apple and i hated it,” (whaaaaaaat !) 

I decided to end that fast. 

3) Ramin. ( I’m leaving the real name )

The most recent and obsessive one. Within a week asked me out on a date and a relationship.

I have to admit, I have faults in this one believing in him way to fast. EVERYTHING WAS TOO FAST! 

Within a couple days we talked uncontrollable. We were relatable or so I thought. Within time the crazy came out. 

I’m talking about obsession, controlling, abusive, manipulator, begged for money, making you feel isolated from everyone, leaving around 1000 messages in the middle of the night about how your not good enough, and threatening voicemails. 

Within a week I ran! 

Never have I ever been harassed by someone so bad. Not even any of my ex’s. 

This guy used personal information about my insecurity with weight to verbally put me down. Physically harass me. Mentally get into my head. 

He would insult me and call me back saying sorry.

“About how much he missed me. That he wouldn’t find another girl. Messaged and called saying I’m a cow and disgrace,”  the list goes on.

His friend passed away, he blanked me out. Understandable. I offered to take him to the funeral and be there he blamed me for his death.... 

WHATTTT! I ONLY OFFERED YOU A RIDE. I DID NOT SAY ANYTHING.  

Another time, he asked for my help in school. When I texted him only 4 texts asking him about the important dates I got: 

“You embarrassing me, stop texting me so much, I’m not stupid, I don’t need you” 

I only messaged 4 times and spaced out asking what time was the exam, what exam, email me the text book names and if your okay.... WHATTTTTTTTT! 

He need money for school, he became desperate for it. It wasn’t more than 50 bucks, only to find out he was a pot junky that needed money to get it. Even though he swore to pay me back. He kept using that as a way to keep in contact and make me not leave.

The cycle would repeat.... guys I left this guy 5 days ago and never messaged him. Yet he was having this conversation on his own....

Texting me non stop and leaving voicemails. I didn’t want to block him, because I wanted my money back. Eventually this harassment was not even worth that 50 bucks. I got over 100 text messages each night and voicemails being blocked up with cursing, verbal abuse and an apology and it would then repeat. harassed, cursing, verbal abuse and an apology. 

I blocked him on everything and kept it all the voicemail and screenshot the messages. I finally sent one text warning him to leave me alone, before I got the police involved for harassment. 

Today is International Woman Day... 

The reason I’m telling this story is because woman are victims to pig headed mens like this. I refused to feel ashamed or be quiet about unfortunate disgusting acts. 

Do not get me wrong, not all guys are like this. But some will put a woman in such a place where she wonders what she has done wrong?... what she can do to be better?

Today I’m saying this WOMAN WE ARE STRONG. WE HAVE NOT BEEN WRONG. WE HAVE BECOME TARGETED VICTIMS. WE ARE BETTER. LOVE YOURSELF AND BE BRAVE! 

The real award is walking away and knowing better.

The best award is making others aware. 

Walking away from someone toxic like that. 

By staying away from other mistakes like that. By forgiving yourself and accepting mistakes by learning from them. By Making sure woman out there know, this is nothing to be ashamed about, instead be proud you faced it and moved on from it. 

Don’t let anyone put you down or put you in such a place again.

You are stronger. You are wiser. Your are one step closer. Believe, dream and be you ! 

I’m letting go of the anger, the past, the hate, I’ve decided to be the bigger person and move on. 

Let it be a learning lesson a bad dream and never let history repeat itself ever again. 

Guys and Girls please respect each other. End the games and be truthful, karma and problems will catch up to you and let me tell you it won’t be pretty. Happy International Women’s Day !

Small branch of an annatto tree that broke a few months ago. I literally stuck it in the ground as temporary decorations under the same tree where the branch broke and lo and behold, it made roots and continued growing. Didn’t even shed a leaf during the process. Who would have thought that it was his easy? Reminds me of that oven on the home shopping network, “Just set it and forget it!” #growninhaiti #annatto #reforestation #easy #stickitintheground #watchitgrow #magic #rooting #propagation #haiti #ayiti #preservation #oops #accident #learninglesson #mountainlife #garden #tree #sapling #growsomething

GOOD NEWS is that I pasted up some drawings at the @ixartpark ...😆BAD NEWS is that the colorful paint markers I used apparently have NO tolerance for direct sunlight—and have immediately dramatically FADED!😧Such a bummer indeed, but hey this is how the creative life works. So I will be repasting something more sun-resistant (perhaps GLITTERY?) over them in the near future. In the meantime here’s some process pics kindly taken by @thebonnetmaker and next I’ll post the pics of how they looked before the sunlight started erasing them.☀️🎈 . . . #learninglesson #nowyouknow #creativelife #tryingnewthings #failureispartoftheprocess #behindthescenes #streetart #pasteups #balloons #karat #art #ixartpark #charlottesville (at IX Art Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDkDjyrlYaS/?igshid=tnea41q9s0ct

I ran out of the setting powder from Sephora and since I needed something quick for the weekend I decided to buy one from the drug store along with Illuminator cream or something like that cause idk much about makeup lmao. I’m a tomboy at heart😂 after I used those two products from nyx the next day I woke up with red bumps on my face. I was like OKAY HI. New friends. Something that never happened to me but I believe my skin just had a bad reaction to it. So I decided to return them back. And these bright ass eyeshadows too cause no lie idk how to blend all that in. I’ll buy those when I’m ready. Lol. Lesson learned test makeup before applying face lol. Has anyone else had an allergic reaction to makeup? And what happened!!?? 😩what did you do next?🙈 By the way shout out to the 98 cent store for hooking it up with 98 cent lashes🙌 #makeup #hateloverelationship #selflove #takecare #makeuplooks #practicing #makeupideas #naturallook #learninglesson #onabudget #skincare #skincareroutine #skincaretips #makeupisfun https://www.instagram.com/p/Busp1OaAgqK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=u17p1k6ihs88
