Everyone Has Story (This is Mine) UPDATE

2011-07-19T17:14:00.000-07:00

So, its been a while since i have posted anything, and i logged in an read over my (Everyone Has a Story) Blogs...A little bit of a pick-me-up i guess. When i'm feeling down or discouraged, to remember where i started, and how far I've Come. So i figured i would Do a Little update Blog About whats Been going on in the Last Year or so as far as What i wrote about Concerning Love & My Family Issues.

As far as Mine and My Fathers Relationship, i said before we were Working on it. As of Today, we Have a great Relationship. Better Than ever, he's been there for me so many times in the Last Couple years...Everything from Coming to the Rescue when Nobody else would when i got into my Car Accident Late at night last winter, to the countless times I've called him up and said "Dad, can you please look at my car again, its acting funny!!" (lol) He's Been there for me...and not only me, but for my oldest Sister, Which is not even his daughter, yet since she was a year old...he Never made her feel like She wasn't one of his Own.

Almost 2 months ago, i lost a 17 year old cousin in a Bad car accident, and My Dad called me Crying Saying "I know im a bad Father, but Please don't ever do this to me, because i don't know what i would do if anything bad ever happened to you" And that broke my heart, because i don't ever want him to think of himself as a bad father. Regardless of anything that happened in the past...Its the Past...and To me...In The present Moment, (which i believe is all that matters) , i consider him an Amazing and Wonderful Father.

As Far as My Mother...That's a little bit More Complicated...She hasn't changed a bit since My Blog. If anything She's gotten Worse. Which has left me feeling, well, i really don't even know. A lot of times I'm ready to just write her out of my Life. And its sad that i should even have to. But she's become so wrapped up in her crazy little world. And i really just don't want to deal with her crap anymore. She's doing to my 16 year old sister, exactly what she did with me. Except my sister was younger when it all started, so its affected her far worse. You can Clearly see all she wants is even the slightest bit of Love and Attention from my mother, and when she doesn't get it...she acts out. Shes very immature for her age, and i def don't see her being able to Take care of herself on her own anytime soon. I believe it all has to do with My Mother-putting her through all the BS that She has. My mom is currently in a relationship with a woman, that she even admitted she wasn't attracted to. Last AUGUST She Quit her job because of her last abusive relationship (they worked together) and hasn't even put in any effort since to find another job to support herself and my sister. That's almost a YEAR!! What kind of example is that? So now she moved in with this new girlfriend, who she hardly knows, and within a week of them even meeting, she had already put my mom on her phone plan, gave her a few thousand dollars, and just recently bought her a car. And My mom acts like she Likes her. But i honestly believe she just cant take care of herself, and needs/wants someone else to do it for her. She's Childish. And that's just The Beginning of all the craziness I've Dealt with concerning her in the last how many years...But in the end, it just kills me that she's failing to be a good parent to My Little Sister. i Wonder if she'll ever Grow up.

As far as my Love Life...I said in that Blog over year ago, that i had issues opening up to people, and letting people get close to me. I stayed single for a few years and decided to Let love find me. And it did. I've learned to let someone inside, and im happy in My Relationship that i am in. =) I wont Bore you all with Details (I've posted other blogs about Relationships a few months ago) But i am Very thankful To Have My Boyfriend, He's great, and although he'll probably never read this.(lol) I Appreciate him more than he will ever know. ♥

So That's Pretty Much Whats been going on with me lately-In a Nutshell.... A lot of people that know me Personally wonder how the heck i can deal with all the stress and situations I've recently dealt/am dealing with - with such a carefree attitude. I Seem to take things lightly and maybe act like i don't care, but i do, but after all I've dealt with I've learned that life could always be worse. Things are always going to be thrown at you that make it hard to Smile. Make it seem like Life is so hard, but there is always someone who has it worse than you. After everything i have already been through, everything getting thrown at me seems so petty...why give up after I've already overcome so much? We just gotta Keep Moving. =)

Once again, i wanna thank all my friends...For Just Being...The Best! I don't know what I'd do without all of you! ♥

Freedom Of Speech???

2011-06-30T12:55:00.000-07:00

Ok…so i find this Conversation coming up alot, especially between me and My boyfriend, and After seeing The whole Flying Lotus/Big Sean Tweets on Twitter, i figured i would write about it quickly. I’m very Curious to see what others think about it also.

For those who dont know, Flying Lotus Tweeted About Big Seans Album, Saying “This Big Sean album is not sweet. I dunno why I try to like this stuff.” and “truth is.. I should have never bought a record called ‘Finally Famous’. If that’s what he really cares about its already all bad.”

As Someone who has listened to Both Artist, i am not taking sides…but i personally see nothing wrong with expressing your opinion…Im the type of person that will tell it like it is, and on Many occasions i have had people write me and ask me to Check out their Music, and if/when i do, 80% of the time, its Hot Garbage, and i am NOT afraid to tell them just that. I strongly believe in Constructive criticism for one, and if they cant handle it, than they need to grow a pair. If anything, i believe you should take that criticism, and grow from it. If you feel i'm wrong about my feedback well, than Show me im wrong. =)

My Boyfriend on the Other hand, is an artist himself, and believes that as an artist, you shouldnt throw your opinion out there about another artist, Just out of respect from one Artist to another, Whether its Garbage or not. Unless of course you have some real Beef going on-Which i most definitely can understand.

So what Does everyone else think? Is it Ok for another Artist to “Criticize” another Artists’ Music? Or Was he Ok to simply voice his Personal opinion?

RESPECT and RELATIONSHIPS Part2

2011-01-31T12:16:00.000-08:00

Now, for the main reason I'm
Writing this post, I had a conversation with an old friend the other day that left me somewhat speechless, just because I couldn't believe how ridiculous it sounded.... He was telling me about how he has had one bad relationship after another, and he's approaching 28 later this year, and never imagined he wouldn't be in a serious, long-term relationship or married with a family by now. Understandable, because I think we all at some point envision how we want certain things in our lives to play out, but honestly how often to they really work out that way, or when we want them to?
So anyways, he says if he doesn't find a good woman by the time he's 30, that's it, it's over and done with, he'll be single for life. So than he starts explaining to me what kind of woman he wants. He says " she has to be Latina, or white. If white, has to have dark hair and a big ass, if Latina, all she has to do is speak Spanish." I waited for a minute to see if he was going to continue, and when he didn't i Said," that's it?!" and he said "that's it, with no exceptions" the thing that blows my mind is not one of those things (obviously) has any real importance when it comes
To finding a soulmate!! How in the world do u expect to be happy with someone for the rest of your life when all your looking for is someone
Who looks good!?!? That's just crazy to me. LOOKS FADE, and than what do you have after that? Another unhappy relationship?
Ironically I wrote a short blog a year ago yesterday talking about something somewhat similar. In it I had said ,

" Also...Ladies and Gentlemen...If your in one failed relationship after the next, You really need to sit down and think...Is it You? Or Is it The People Your Choosing to Date? Because If your constantly out at the Club looking for a guy/girl that you wanna settle down and get serious with, Ummmm...Well..GOOD LUCK!!!

Really Sit down, Do some soul searching, and think about the type of person you want to spend your life with. But Dont Be ridiculous, Be Realistic!"

"DON'T BE RIDICULOUS, BE REALISTIC" and that's the problem, too many people sit there and get so specific with the things they look for in a significant other that they don't realize they're looking for someone who DOESN'T exist!! I'm not saying you should lower your standards completely, but don't have them so high that what your looking for is un-reachable and impossible to find. NOBODY is perfect!! Most importantly are they loyal, honest and do they respect you? That's what matters most.
To be honest, I get so tired of hearing people tell me they're sick of being single and they just can't find the one. Like I said , your either being unrealistic, or your just not being patient enough. STOP "looking" for love and let it find you!! It's like when you misplace something around the house, spend the longest time trying to
Find it, but don't, and it just pops up a week later.
Those who have known me for a while knew me when I was single. I always said I wasn't looking for love, but more so waiting for it to find me, yeah I had My days where I felt lonely and thought about how nice it would be to have someone, but when you just put it in gods hands, you'd be surprised of the outcome. I now have in my life, an amazing man, and I couldn't be happier, and he showed up when I least expected it. So plllease, be patient, stop spending everyday stressing about finding someone and sulking because you feel alone. You'll find "the one" when the time is right ;)

RESPECT and RELATIONSHIPS Part1

2011-01-31T08:12:00.000-08:00

Ok, first off- a lot of people have been curious as to why I took a break from Facebook, and well- there is multiple reasons. 1 being that I just have a lot of stuff to take care of right now and fb is a distraction. Another being I'm just growing tired of it. It was also my way of biting my tongue from saying some things, and a few other reasons. I see a lot of things on social networks that just disappoint me...so many people, whether they realize it or not, just make themselves look bad. I'm constantly seeing half naked girls, talking trashy, getting stupid and sometimes disrespectful messages from dudes, or just seeing a lot of (excuse me) dumb shit. For example- a girl I lived next to in middle school, constantly posts half naked pics of herself, and in the very same album, will posts pics of her daughter. In my opinion, and maybe its just me, but It looks bad. I see a lot of crazy, ridiculous posts from girls on twitter, basically making themselves sound like "sluts", and I mean if that's how you want to portray yourself, than fine, but these are the same females bitching about how they can't find a good man and saying that "there are NO good men." but when you're talking that way or posting those kind of pics, what kind of man do you expect to find? I doubt it'll be a good one. I don't know about you but I rather have someone who loves me for who I am, rather than how I look. Honestly- NO man, or should I say NOBODY is going to respect you, if you don't respect yourself. Yeah, maybe you like the attention and the comments, and If that makes you feel better about yourself and helps you sleep at night, cool. But PLEASE don't cry about how there isn't any good men, because there are, they just don't want you (:

2010-03-09T14:30:00.000-08:00

So For Those who Dont Already know, I got News yesterday that an Old Friend Of Mine Was shot and Killed outside his home Yesterday Morning. I Still cant Believe it, and im not really sure it has even hit me fully. I feel as if im trying to block it out because i dont even know what to think right now.

Last night the story was all over the News and i read about it in the paper today, and it upsets me that People are bringing up Past convictions of his and whatnot. I Know Lofton well, he lived with me for 8 months. Whether or not he was involved in some bad things, is irrelevant right now, and I cant Imagine How his family feels to watch the news and hear the things they're saying. He may not have been a "model" citizen but he wasn't the worst either. No human being deserves to be murdered. Also, when it is all said and done God is the ultimate judge. Before people sit there and talk about how pathetic another person is, take a few minutes to take a look at the man in the mirror. You might be ashamed of what you see.

My Prayers Go Out to his family, to his daughter, and i really hope the person responsible for his Death is caught.

R.I.P "Uncle" Lofton

We had some Hilarious moments Together Back in 05-06 Lofton,

"Only on the southside would you see some crackheads riding down a hill on a motorized wheelchair" AHAHAHA....man...And i will never forget when Me and Tanya tried to gang up on you in 007 Goldeneye, And you still whooped our asses...EVERY SINGLE TIME, but dont ever forget how i whooped you in Mario Tennis AND Mortal Kombat..LOL..I remember when we had that serious addiction to Midnight Club 3, and we would fight about who got to play all the time, so i would purposely wake up hours early just to beat you to it, i'd sneak out of my room as quiet as possible,4-5 am.... only to find you were already up playing...LOL- I remember When we had that horrible Blizzard, and i sat in my car and watched you clean off literally about 10 inches of snow from my car (which took atleast a half hour)...And i just laughed hysterically at you....And than you got us stuck goin up that hill, SMH...Of course...we cant forget the "Uncle" nickname, Or the Praying Mantis jokes...Or how i had to cook you eggs for breakfast every morning because Tanya's were nasty. LOL...i could go on forever. You'll Be missed, Gone but never forgotten, And i hope you know i STILL have that picture of you that you hate...you even washed it in your clothes and tried to hide it from me..But i STILL got it!

2010-02-17T16:44:00.000-08:00

In 2006 I Met My Ex Boyfriend, and if anything good came out of our relationship, it was the Fact that He Helped Me build my relationship with God, He Educated me, Helped Me Make Sense of Things, Showed Me My Way Closer To God, and I'm forever thankful for that. Eventually Things Just Made Sense, All The wondering Why i was going Through all the horrible things i was going through. Now I understood. Everyday i Feel So Blessed. I know That Everything Happens for a Reason, and I'm actually Grateful i went through Every one of the those horrible things. Because i can Honestly tell you that i don't think i would Be the Person i am today, if i hadn't. I love who i have Become, and i wouldn't change anything for the world. I have Become so Much Stronger, So much wiser, and i no longer am Bitter towards those people Who abused me. I feel at Peace within Myself. I know that things in My Life aren't perfect, and I'm still struggling at times, But I'm OK, All those Things seem So tiny compared to everything i have already made it Through.

I'm Still Struggling With My Mother, but i hope someday soon she will Realize what she's doing, My Nephew is 4 Years old and doesn't even know who she is when he does get to see her. Because she never puts in any effort. At one point she was living 15 minutes from my sister, and never once came to visit her Only grandson. He even said to my sister once "You don't have a mother do you?" -It just doesn't Make sense to me how she doesn't seem to care. My sisters are both constantly coming to me Crying about her, and how they wish she was more involved in all our lives, her Grandson's Life. We've all tried to talk to her about it, but it just doesn't register with her, and alot of times she talks about how shes messed up because she was Molested by her Uncle as a child. I feel as if that's just an excuse, I've been there to, and i could never see myself acting as she does. Its Been Years, and if that's really the case. She needs to let go of that, because life is too short. I pray she comes around before its too late.

As for My Father, He hasn't Been perfect either, he was very distant towards us kids growing up as well. I remember all the times i would be at his house on my birthday, and he would just walk around as if it was just another day, he would always forget. No Happy Birthday, No nothing. That always stuck with Me. I remember a few years ago, i was thinking, "what happened?" before my mom left him, i was such a daddies girl. After that, we hardly said a word to each other. I tried reaching out to him Later, wanting so badly to have some type of relationship with at least one of my parents, and felt rejected when he just acted like he didn't care. More Recently, He started calling me alot, coming to see me, asking me to come see him. Now we speak and see each other more frequently, building on the relationship we missed out on for so long, and i'm so happy to have him in my life right now. The way things should be.

If anything Negative Has come from all this at all. The only thing i can think of is That i tend to Push People away, when they Get too Close. I Have a Guard up, But can you Blame me? The same Person who helped me Build My relationship with God, also later on made me Feel so dis-respected, and un-appreciated. He Hurt Me so Bad and I could only Deal with it for so long until it was time for me to leave. Now i find its hard for me to give to someone else, what i tried to give to him. For Fear of Being Hurt again. It is something i am aware of, i recognize i have a problem with this, and unless i want to be single for the rest of my life, i need to let people get through. It seems like as soon as Feelings get involved, i want to push away. I'm terrified. A few Friends have told Me i come off as being "emotionless", but the truth is, I'm very Full of emotion. All my Life, through all the pain i felt, i walked around with this fake smile, i never wanted to show people what i was really feeling, I never wanted people to know i was hurting. So i laughed everything off. But i Promise Myself, I Will fix this. I'm Learning How To Give someone My heart again. I just hope they Realize...Fool me once, and I'll be damned if i give you another opportunity to fool me again. (LOL) =)

But that one thing, is nothing compared to all the positive things i have gained through all this, and I know nothing will ever bring me down to that level of depression, ever again. I thank God for All the Strength and Knowledge i have gained, and continue to Gain. I have a Level Of Self-respect and Self-Love for myself, i never had growing up. So many People don't have that, and I pray that they find it.

With All these things said, i Hope that some people reading this, who are struggling in life, who are holding onto to negative things(past or present), negative and unhealthy relationships with people, whatever it may be - Just learn to let go, move forward, Rid yourself of all negativity and Live your life to the fullest, forgive yourself, forgive others, and just have faith. Life is what you Make it.

Lastly, I just want to Thank all the Great Friends i Have in My Life,(Kyle, Melissa, Chris, Jermaine, Elisa, Amanda, & anyone else i Know im forgetting, SO SORRY!!) Some Have Been there Helping me through all my tough times since the Very Beginning, Others More Recently. Others Stuck around even though i tried to Push them away numerous times, Never giving up on me. I Love you guys, From the bottom of My Heart i Do. Also, Thank you to all who took the time out to Read this, I appreciate it! Thank you all x1000!! <3

So I managed to Finally Get rid of Psycho Boy, But i Was still Struggling with My Depression. I always felt like that was it, i had no way out. It just seemed like it was One Bad thing After another. When would it Ever End?

I remember When i was in High school, This 8th Grade Girl from my small town committed suicide, Her younger Brother came home to find her hanging in her closet, And although i never met her, it still affects me to this day. I remember Crying for weeks. I felt her pain. I knew exactly how she felt. I felt like, if i had only known her, Been her friend, talked to her, Been there for her, I could have helped her through whatever she was going through. While everyone else around me laughed and made jokes about her...i cried, Because I felt her Pain.

On My 18th Birthday, My mom got into a fight with her girlfriend, and she kicked us out. So we grabbed some things and Left for my grandmas house. Now although this happened atleast once a month, My mom said this was it, she had enough. She told me she wasnt going back to her. She made things sound so Promising, we would get an apartment together, and even though financially it was going to be tough, It would be a fresh new start. I remember feeling happy for the first time in So long. I was beaming. I felt like, Life was about to get Better. I held my mom and we both cried, and i told her things were gonna be just fine. We could do it. The Very Next day i came downstairs and she had bags of her stuff together, She told me she had talked things out with her Girlfriend. She was Moving Back in with her, and She thought it would be best if i didnt come home with her. I was Heartbroken. I had Never Felt so hurt, So un-wanted, so un-loved. What did she mean she didnt want me moving back in with her? I cried Myself to Sleep For Days. All i ever wanted was To have My mom even act like she cared. Instead she always just tossed me to the side like Nothing.

After That i pushed myself so hard, I worked and Slept,Worked and slept, nothing else. I wanted so badly to Prove to Everyone that i didnt need them. I could Do whatever i wanted, all by myself. I Moved into My Own Place. It felt good. I was Independent. I fought to Battle my depression. I Didnt want it to get the best of Me, I was still cutting, but i was trying to find other ways to control my emotions. I felt Pathetic when i was cutting, Like i was weak.

I wasnt really Raised in The Church or with any Sort Of Religious Beliefs, Not that my Parents didnt Believe in god, because they both do, But we never really went to Church. It was sort of Like, "Hey, There is this God, and your supposed to believe in him" I really wasn't educated When it came to Religion. I remember being confused growing up, Wondering Why i was going through All these horrible things. Im only a Child, how is this Fair? How could He allow these things to happen? But it wasnt until a couple Years Later when Things All Made sense.

2010-02-14T11:09:00.000-08:00

I remember Riding in the car with my Dad, After He first found out about my Mom was gay. Right in front of me and my 7 year old sister, He told us she was going to Hell. That always bothered me. Not even because he said it to me, but he had no reason to say that to my little sister. Nobody Wants to hear that about their mother. As Much as i felt ignored and non existent to her, I still Loved Her, I always Will.

If There was one good thing about us moving in with Her girlfriend, it was the fact that i was moving away from my oldest sister. With her not around me, i stopped drinking. Granted i had moments here and there where i was drinking with my friends, But It wasn't a lot. Without the alcohol around me, i had to find new ways to release My pain. I was Born with Talent, An artistic side, That runs deep throughout my family. I started Drawing, painting, Writing Poetry, and i found my love for Music. But Eventually My pain was just too much, that those things just didn't Help anymore.

When i was 15 I Met this guy who was really Abusive, Mentally and emotionally. He was acting really controlling and obsessive. It turned me Off. I wanted to stop talking to him, because i was getting a bad feeling about him. When i tried to leave him. He blew up my phone and left 100's of voicemails, telling me he was going to kill himself if i left him,and that it was gonna be all my fault. I was so terrified, That i stayed around. I really felt He would do it. I remember he came to see me one time. i told him i couldnt be with him anymore. He stuck a loaded gun in his mouth right in front of my face, and told me he would pull the trigger. So i just kept staying, i was scared. i didnt want him in my life. Countless times i tried to break things off, and countless times he threatend his life, Mine, and Threatend to Kill my family and burn my house down. Around this time i Had Also Been Molested, which i dont care to get into detail about, and i was still dealing with everything else on my plate. My mom was ignoring us kids even more and Her girlfriend was Mean, she told me she hated me, she told my little sister she hated her too. Because she took Away her attention from my Mother. My mom did nothing about it. I always felt like, i could have ran away and she wouldn't have noticed for days.

Between all that, i didnt know what to do. I'd become extremely Depressed, i Really didnt care to live anymore. I starting cutting myself. I hated it. I was so ashamed. and i made sure nobody found out what was going on. I didnt wanna be judged, or people to think i was doing it for attention. That wasnt the case. I couldnt get away with wearing long sleeves at work to Hide the cuts. So i was cutting My Legs, and any other places i could hide the cuts. I realized later that in all reality. This wasnt solving anything. But at that time, it was my only release. Like i was watching the pain drip out from my body.

A Few Years Later My Mom Finally Got out Of Her Abusive Relationship. But She Still Wasn't Around. She worked 3rd Shift and Slept During the Day. So I was Still Stuck Taking Care Of My Youngest Sister. I was a Good Kid, i was never Disrespectful towards my mother, I didnt get in trouble, I wasnt Doing Drugs, Smoking cigarettes, or Drinking, I never Had a urge to. EVER. The Thought of Those things Scared me. I Knew they were Bad.

I will Never Forget, i think i was 12. My Sister Came up to My Room with her Bf, She told me to Take a shot of Tequila. I told her i didnt want to do it, I CRIED, i was so scared. and she kept telling me, Just do it, Just Do it, You'll be Fine. I kept telling her No, and she just told Me, "I'm Not leaving until you Take it." She just stood there and waited. So i took it. Than She Made Me take Another...Next thing you know, She was having me drink with her all the time. Next she was Forcing me to Smoke Weed with Her. One Time, She even had Me Snorting Cocaine. I didnt know any Better. I just knew, it Made The Hurt Stop. For the First Time in so Long. I didnt Feel Sad, I didnt Wanna Cry, I didnt think about All the Bad things. I Hated Getting High, and i Didnt Touch coke again. My thing was Drinking...I was Getting Drunk with My Sister and her Friends all the time While My Mom was at work. I was stealing Alcohol from My dads girlfriend and taking shots at 5:30 In the Morning Before i was Picked up For School. Anything to Make Me Feel better.

Then one Day My mom Sits Us down and Tells us, She's a Lesbian, She's Been Seeing This girl, and she just feels Right about things for the first time in So long. She asked us for acceptance, and i Gave it to her. Whatever Made Her Happy, That's all i wanted was for her to Be Happy. I Knew she hurt, I had seen and Heard Her Cries late at night when she was being Hit By her Ex. I Cried with her so many Nights, Laying In Bed, Hearing her in the Other Room. I just wanted to Hold her in my arms, and Cry with her. But I Didn't want her to know that i knew what was going on at that Time, and I didn't know how to show my emotions around her. She Felt so Distant From Me then.

So I was Happy That She found someone Else, Man or Woman, I Didn't Care. Shortly after, She Tells Me that Her girlfriend asked For My Mom, My youngest sister and I, To Move In with Her and Her Daughter. My Only Argument was That i would have to Switch schools again. But I let her Talk Me into it. I Thought things were going to get better. Maybe she would Spend more time With us. Maybe i Wouldn't Feel so Alone.

Things Didn't get better at all....

So. I've had a Rollercoaster ride of a life. Seen and Experienced alot of horrible things, And i've decided im going to Share it with All Of you. Because im Not ashamed to admit where i came from, what i've been through. Because it Made me Exactly who i am Now. And if someone Happens to Read this, Who is going through any of these things, I hope they can learn from it, And They can get through it too. This is Me, This is My Life, This isnt just some Made up Story. Just Some things i need to Let out and get off My Chest. Judge Me. I dont Care...Because At the End of the day...The only People who's Opinion of Me i care about...Is Gods, And My Own.

*sigh* Where do i Start??? At The Beginning I Guess. LOL. For about the First Decade of my Life, Things were actually Pretty Good. My Parents Were together. Granted it was off and on, But They Stayed together Until the End of My Fifth Grade Year. I'll Never Forget the Day My mom Sat me Down and Told Me She was Leaving My dad. I didnt exactly understand why. But She Reassured me everything was gonna be Ok. Things were Going to Be Better, But I think Thats When The Depression Started. I moved to a New school, and i was so terrified. I was Horrible at Making New Friends, and was extremely SHY. After we Moved out, I never saw my mom. She was always working, or With Her New Boyfriend. I suddenly started Feeling Really ALONE. My Older Sister and Me always fought, so i didnt have her to turn to, and alot of times i got stuck watching over my baby sister. My mom also started Trash talking My dad to my face-Daily. So Much, that i eventually started to Believe everything she said. He was Horrible, he was an Asshole, worthless, I even used to tell everyone how much i Hated him. Come to Find out Years Later, The whole Reason My mom moved out, Was Because She Cheated on him with her "new boyfriend". My Dad Loved My Mother With Every inch of His Heart, Sometimes I believe he still does. But she Threw him to The Side For a Man who beat the shit out of her All the time. I will Never Forget Him. Even as a child, Everything about him gave me the Creeps. I Never Once could even look him in the eyes. He was Terrifying. I Remember Crying myself to sleep Most Nights. Just Wishing things were the way they Used to Be. Wishing this Man would stop hurting My Mom. I Didn't know what to do, so i just started writing. I felt SO alone, and my mom was so wrapped up in her relationship, It was Like She forgot she even Had kids. She had even allowed my 16 year old sister to move out, and go live with her Druggie Older Boyfriend. I dont Know what parent does something like that. It was like she just didnt care anymore. I Remember in 6th Grade. We Made This "About Me" Book, with all these questions about our likes and dislikes, favorite things, etc. One of the Questions asked us what was our Biggest Fear. With no hesitation i wrote "Dying Alone, and Unloved". Well, Apparently That raised a red flag for my Teacher. Because Next thing you Know i was in the Guidence Counselors Room, getting all These Test Done for Depression. Next thing You Know, They got me seeing a Shrink. Mindy, I had a few sessions with her. But I Never said a word to her. I didnt know why i was there, I thought it was something all the Kids had to do. After 2 or 3 Sessions. I stopped going, because my mom said she just couldnt afford it. Now I didnt Find out Until Years later, While having a conversation with My Oldest Sister, Why they Really Made Me Go. My Mother Had Found My Journal. I had wrote things about Wanting to Kill Myself. Talking about exactly how i would do it. "Just take a bunch of Medicine, and Just Fall Asleep." Looking Back on That. I thought about How sad that is, as a 6th grader, that i felt that way.

God Wants You To Know....

2010-02-04T07:48:00.000-08:00

(Alright, Here is another one...i think it speaks For Itself)

On this day, God wants you to know...
... that it's your heart that knows who loves you, not your ears or eyes. Listen to the words, and you can be fooled. Look at the actions, and you can be fooled. Feel deeply into your heart, and then you will know the truth. Who makes your heart soar now? Well, what are you waiting for?

Material Things...

2010-01-31T21:54:00.001-08:00

So I've Talked to Quite a Few Guys Who Always try to Brag about what They Got. "I got so much Money In The Bank" - "I live in a Condo and Have 3 Cars" - "Girl, Ima Buy you anything You want" ETC.....Well, I Cant speak for Other Woman...But i Honestly Could Care Less about what your driving, Wearing, how much money you got, etc. (With the Exception That your not A Bum with no job living off your parents.) But Really...You Bragging about all those material things, is a Turn Off to me. Your NOT gonna win me over that way. Not Ever! Honestly I Rather Have someone With some Intelligence, A good Sense Of Humor, Someone Honest, A good Taste In Music, who Respects Me and Doesnt Need to Brag about what he Has or Try To Buy his way in....Thats all!...Thanks for listening =)

Immortal Technique - Crimes Of The Heart

My Fav Verse:

Love...doesn't need a complicated metaphor
And sometimes nothing needs to be said at all
Sometimes a person you with is not your one and only
And you just fuck with them because you afraid to be lonely
And when you come back its too late
So you overcompensate
Like victims of rape
Full of self hate
Lost in the affection to strangers around you
Instead of the only person that ever gave a fuck about you
Thought you were happy so you didn't come check me
But then when he cheated or treated you incorrectly
You conveniently realized you could never forget me
And tried to crawl back in my life unexpectedly
These are my indictments
Of those who claim to be righteous
And leave a trail of broken hearts on their way to enlightment

Cheating Is Cheating...

2010-01-30T12:52:00.000-08:00

So Ive Had Coversations about this many times. With Various Different People, Men And Woman, Gay, Straight...etc. It Seems Like For Most Part, More People Disagree With Me Rather than agree, Yet I wonder how they would react givin they were Put in the Situation Themselves.

Ok. For Example. Lets Say Your a Man, Your In a Serious Relationship with a woman you really Love, Someone You wanna spend the rest of your Life With. Now She May Or May Not Be Bi-Sexual, or Had previous Sexual Relations with another woman. But While Your together, She Sleeps With another woman. Without you having any Knowledge about it Either. Now she May Tell You Eventually, or She May not Tell You At All. But She just might be thinking, "Hey, He wouldn't Mind, its just another Woman, its not like its another Man."

Well, Ive Heard Alot of Men say, They Wouldnt Care, and Of course heard the "that would be hot!!!"

But, Would You consider this Cheating, Or Not? Because it was Just another Woman?

In My eyes, Cheating is Cheating. You Might Think Sex Between Two Women is Just Sex, Like she couldnt catch feelings for this other woman,& Like There is No real Intimate Moments Between them. But Thats Not always True. Yeah It might be Hot to you, To imagine Your Girl With another Girl. But If this is Someone You Love Especially, Is It Really Ok For Her to Be Intimate With someone other than you? Regardless of if its just another Woman?? What If She was to Catch Feelings For this Woman, and she Left You for Her??

So Like i Said, Personally, I think its Cheating, But i want Your Opinions! So Lets Hear them!

Dont ever Punish The Next Man/Woman for Somethin a Previous one Has Done!!!!

Not Only Is it unfair To The New Person in Your Life, But it will get you nowhere in your relationships with people. There is Always those Women who claim that there isnt any Decent Men out there, "They're all dogs, Cheaters, Liars...etc" But Personally I'd Like to Believe Otherwise. I've Been Hurt, Cheated on, Lied to, And When i was younger, i was in some Pretty Abusive Relationships, Physically, Emotionally, and Sexually. But i Refuse to Punish Someone, for something Someone else did to me, Because Thats Not Fair at all. Unless that person is proving Themselves Otherwise, you need to Give Them The Benefit of The Doubt. Its Impossible to have a relationship without Trust. So Unless You want to be bitter and Single for life, LET GO OF THE PAST!!! Not Every Girl is Gonna Be "Scandalous", Not Every guy is gonna Cheat on you. If a relationship goes bad, Learn From Whatever Mistakes, And Keep it Moving!

"Assumptions are the termites of relationships." ~Henry Winkler

Also...Ladies and Gentlemen...If your in one failed relationship after the next, You really need to sit down and think...Is it You? Or Is it The People Your Choosing to Date? Because If your constantly out at the Club looking for a guy/girl that you wanna settle down and get serious with, Ummmm...Well..GOOD LUCK!!!

Really Sit down, Do some soul searching, and think about the type of person you want to spend your life with. But Dont Be ridiculous, Be Realistic!

So Yeah, Just a quick thought...im sure im missing a million points i wanted to make...i'll probably talk about this again some other time!

God Wants You To Know....

2010-01-28T22:10:00.001-08:00

So I Get These Daily "God Wants You To Know" Messages on Facebook...And Alot of times, They Hit Very Close to home in a way that I, and most other people can def. Relate...so Ima Just Share Some With you Guys every once in a while!

"On this day, God wants you to know...
... that you are not to shut love out of your life by saying it is impossible to find and keep. The quickest way to find love is to give love. If you want it too badly, you will not find it. The most secure way to keep love is to give it space and care to grow. If you hold it too tightly, you will lose it."

So Anyways, I Couldnt Agree More. Alot of People seem to run around Looking for Love, And then Complain that They can Never Find it...Doesnt this remind you of When you lose something, you tear your house apart looking for it..and STILL dont find it, until days or weeks later when you dont even need it anymore!? Well its EXACTLY like that! Which is exactly why i dont go around looking for anything, I believe Love will Find Me, When im Ready for it, And Trust me, it'll show up When you least expect it! =)
