Pretty In Pink... Perfect In Paisley!

 Over the last year, I have been audiobook-listening to some very interesting reads. Since I can not focus at all on reading (a sign of a fight or flight response) I have found listening is soothing while staring off at some focal point or keeping my eyes closed in a lounge lizard position. A person does what one does to regulate the nervous system. By far the book COMMITTED by Elizabeth Gilbert ranks as my best informed how to...on not to get married! (the ending was not the hype I was looking for) #hoopla I should have just stayed engaged in The 5 Languages of Love. That I could wrap my head around. (My love language is BUILD ME. altho that is not listed in the book!) Last week as I danced in and out of the kitchen at work, my 4 day-week gig that keeps life real and my 1200lb dinosaur fed; Joe, a young blossoming chef was listening to The Art Of War. Joe is studious by nature and curious about all things life! We have great conversations! Did I mention he is young...worldly an ol...

 I have thought for a few weeks on this writing, this subject. I have food for thoughts with some message behind my rhetorical lessons. I am a broken record that seems to be repeating the same message and it has fallen deeply on deaf ears. I am to the point; why bother? The inner voice just says give up... no one wants what you are selling, speaking, or the life I am trying to build. Not everyone sees life like I do nor are they willing to change their societal routine to have more, a different life and happier existence. After 4 years of on and off and a full year to myself, I have come to the conclusion, I would have better luck training a dragon! While I am on the subject of training, the adage, you can't teach an old dog new tricks and expect him to roll over and be thankful for the new learning curves, & an exciting way to do things; Cause and effect apply to all and we can thank Paslov for his experiments. Teach the dog a routine, entice him with a reward, and watch how h...

 I often wonder about my requests and or requirements in my romantic relationships. Of course, the top condition being... Be loyal and in my absence, talk all great things about me, defend my honor, speak on my behalf by proxy, and be true to it all! Is this too much to ask? Is it too much to ask after a long week of hard work for you to leave your disapproval of your co-workers, your societal behaviors, your off-color remarks, and your condescending views at the gate of your employer's parking lot? Is it too much to ask? Is it too much for me to expect you to take care of yourself? Your health, your aches and pains, your mental default, your physical appearance, and your outward image that everyone sees when they have come in contact with you? Is it too much to ask to be talked to kindly, to be touched gently and gracefully and not to be approached as a work tool? Is it too much to ask for you to be aware of your tone not only to me but to others as you speak? Is it too much to as...

 Portray the life, you choose to live and see what shows up for you! The universe has a very keen sense of what you desire versus God, who sometimes has some off-the-cuff sense of humor. Go ahead though and plug away at all the aesthetics, aligning the look, the life, the plan, and the goal, and then match it with your words! {Hear how it all sounds} Once a person has configured the words and you can hear how you want your life to sound; listening to the phonetics and the way dialogue just rolls off your tongue... you will have almost mastered the art of manifestation. The next key will be tricky because honestly if you are not believing what you are saying, you will not be able to feel what that life's emotions will offer you. {you might need to read that 2ce} Too often, if not always, people do not pay attention to how something makes them feel. Somewhere along in their growing-up environment, they were taught to stuff feelings away and just act in some auto-pilot mode to get thr...
