Detachment

Hello all!

I want to talk about detachment and what it means to me and get your thoughts on this topic.

For me, detachment is breaking away or walking away from any situation that you know is no good for you, or you feel off about situations, and are able to walk away from it with no problem easily.

Detachment, for me, is also about detaching from people out of fear of what is to come, or perhaps fear of the unknown. If that makes sense to you. I will stop talking to someone sometimes if my feelings are too much involved. Honestly, detaching from everything comes easily for me. I don’t know why I’m like this. I get into ghosting mode.

Sometimes, detaching myself is not a good thing because I feel like I hurt people in the process, and that is the last thing I want to do is hurt someone, as I definitely know the feeling. I just don’t like making connections, and then they turn out wrong for me. So, I detach myself before it can happen.

It’s crazy because I always talk about wanting to find love, but I would have to work on letting my guard down and not walking away so quickly. But saying goodbye is easy. Even when my feelings are in it, I am scared. I need to get my life together, especially at my age, and let it all out. Damn, I am so guarded, easily detachable, and have trust and abandonment issues. Yeah, I need to work on all of that. It is not good at all.

Detachment can be for the good and be for the bad depending on your situation. When it comes to detachment what comes to mind? Are you easily detachable? Are you good at goodbyes?

Detachment: a feeling of not being emotionally involved: to have an air of detachment

Grateful

Just had to take a moment and think of everything that I am grateful for. Though the last few months I have been very busy, I am proud of myself. Grateful that I have the strength to get through those not-so-good days and push through with my writing. Got so much done with my book and I am grateful for that too. Grateful to those who have been patient and understanding with me. It has been rough, but I am still striving to work on my dreams. So grateful and thankful for my family. My two kids are my biggest supporters, and their love and support are everything to me. I will continue to have faith and keep on working on myself. I am grateful I have made it this far. At the beginning of doing this blog and writing a book, I was always self-doubting. So again, I say I am proud of myself. Grateful for it all. Shoutout to those who supported me on here and took the time to read my blog. I appreciate it.

Just wanted to let that out. Still a work in progress. 🖤🧡💙🤎💛💚❤💜💕

Blessings and Love.

Thank you for visiting my blog!

Touch Of Gentleness!

In fields of green and skies so blue

Where gentle breezes softly blew

Two lovers met with tender grace

And gentleness shone on their face!

With gentle kisses and caress

Their love did sweetly manifest

Each touch so tender and so kind

A love that’s gentle, pure, and blind

In this pastoral scene so fair

Their love did blossom without care

For in their hearts, they knew the truth

That gentleness is love’s sweetest fruit!

Blessings and Love

Guilty Pleasure!

When you hear guilty pleasure what comes to your mind? Is it T.V shows, movies, video games, shopping, music, food, a drink or four, alone time (sleep), or a person. Having a Guilty pleasure means that you have to have something that is restricted, and might be labeled as bad for you, but of course you don’t care. You want what you want right?

I have some guilty pleasures from the list above. The first one would be alone time, or extra sleep. I like to be alone in my own word chilling. Sometimes in my bed with a good book just relaxing. Which sometimes is hard to do with kids(Sometimes I sneak away in a quiet place of the house to get away, LOL).

The second is T.V. shows and movies I like to indulge in action packed shows and sometimes ones that is filled with drama. Shows that keeps me on edge.

Third is food. I am a foodie, love, love, love food. When it comes to food, I say it is a guilty pleasure when you are eating something sweet, fatty, moist, and juicy, fried and ohhh so delicious.

My favorites are Philly-Steak and Cheese over some nice and crispy fries, with pepper jack and cheddar cheese smothered over it all (Mmmm so good). I love fries especially with cheese sauces. Or a jalapeno bacon cheeseburger between two glazed doughnuts, which I have a taste for right now but tonight just a bacon cheeseburger and fries would do. And another one for me is all the banana split topping over cinnamon French toast, extra ice cream!

Whew now I’m hungry LOL. Time to make dinner…..

Those are my guilty pleasures.

So, my blog peeps, do you have any guilty pleasures? Are you a foodie? Do you like things that are no good for you? Your thoughts!

Blessings and Love!

Mask!

Mask/Different Face

 Have you ever met a person or met people who act differently depending on who they are around? Or do you feel they are holding back? Not really all there. Some tend to do it to hide themselves and please others, some do it and hide to protect themselves, and others do it to hide bad intentions. I don’t think that every person who do is a bad person. Some. Some people like to be what others want them to be, so a mask is on pretending. When you really don’t want to but don’t feel you have a voice, so you keep that mask on. There are people who do it that do not want people to notice what they go through or what they face. I can say that I have been a person who wears a mask, I put on a smile and act like everything is okay but deep down inside there is a lot of hurt, sadness, and pain. I have a wall up and do not want people to know how I am really feeling so I put a smile and I am cool, then I get away trying to avoid everybody. I do not easily connect with people again my wall is up, and I am guarded. Not saying that is a good thing because it still a mask on.

I know that there are some who have that mask on to hide their bad intentions they act and talk like they are perfect, very manipulative, they are monsters deep inside and like it or not there are some people in this world like that. Yes, there are different masks people wear, you must trust your judgment that they are a good person and in your life for a good reason. The world is filled with people who wear masks. Try to be your true self and trust that things will work out for the better. Trust I know, I am slowly letting my guard down and trying to trust. Finding the real me. Do you all know where I am coming from? Have you been there? Are you a people pleaser?

Just my thoughts tonight. Wearing a mask whether good or bad. What do you do????

Blessings and Love!

Failure.?

Hello all! How is it going?

I am thinking about life overall and I have been thinking about the things that I have failed at in life and wanted to open up about how I deal with those failures. So I have a question my blog peeps, and this can be used as a writing prompt if you are a writer and like to do writing prompts. The question is below as well as my response.

Do you deal with failure positively?

When it comes to failure and I, we are never on the same page. So, to answer this question I do not positively deal with failure. When I fail at something I am usually in an unpleasant mood. I take it to heart, and I feel like I hurt myself when I fail at something. I kind of shut down for a while and just be in a funk. I feel like it takes a while for me to fully process that I have failed. It is not a good feeling. I then start to question everything I have done leading to it. Feel like I must work so much harder for me not to fail. Failure I know happens from time to time life is not easy and pursuing your passions and your dreams there is a chance of failure. Me knowing this I still don’t like failing and feel like I am letting myself down or others. I know it is not okay for me to feel this way, but I do. Something I try to work on and know that everything will not always go my way. Failure is a part of life. Some of us need to accept that (ME). Learning to take things how they are when they arrive. Yeah, me and my Failures do not get along (LOL),

How do you deal with failure? How do you move past it? Care to share?

Positive Day

On this day I will be better than I was yesterday. I feel at peace at the moment, and I want to remain that way throughout the day. Positive thinking, positive mindset. I will not let anyone take me out my character and stoop to their level. I am in control over the way I respond, and act and I will be happy. Put a smile on my face and carry on with the day. Again happy, positive mindset today. I am thankful for this day, have everything I need, I’m writing and enjoying it.

Hope you all have a wonderful day. If you are not, I hope it gets better and I want to tell you to keep your head up and keep pushing through. Pray about it, have faith. Wishing you all the best, Peace, Love, Happiness, and Blessings. Have a good one.
