So with everything that goes on daily in the world my head is on overload so this maybe jumble or not even make sense but I am putting it out there.

• Why do police had to use guns to kill, why not mame (sp) or use tazers(sp)?
• How on earth did we end up with Trump and Clinton to choose from for President? Although I like Clinton and feel she’s gotten enough politics in her to know how to represent.  She made mistakes I get it.  Haven’t we all?
• I have faith in the American people will choose Hillary to win; I have to  because the alternate is too depressing.  Trump has no filter and is clearly racist and a few other things.
• I respect everyone’s right to their own opinion, why can’t others respect mine? I mean half the people I know put up offensive crap on Facebook daily.
• I don’t believe all Christians hate gays but some that I know say they love me but I’m a sinner.  Well isn’t everyone a sinner?  Exactly how am I suppose to react to things like that?
• I have a pit-bull and they are so misunderstood.  It is owners that make bad dogs not the breed of dog that is bad.  But you tend to only hear about the pit bull’s talk about bullying.  Wake up people.
• I’m a large woman and when I was younger and smaller I had strangers call out to me beached whale at the mall one day.  I have had some esteem issues every since.  I was comfortable in my own skin until it got hard to breathe and walk.
• Since I have been put on disability I have had to ask for help more than once and let me tell you pride can get in the way but I have done it.  I have to get food stamps and some medical aid.  For everyone that has ever said well he has a nice car, nice phone, etc. he shouldn’t be on food stamps.  Well let me tell ya I have a nice car and a nice cell phone and I had to ask for help or we wouldn’t be eating.
• Everyone cries about people being so judgemental but I see it everyday.  I have been guilty too and it tears me up inside.  Our differences is what makes us unique and interesting.
• Contrary to popular believe everyone on food stamps is not lazy.  Mental illness is real and debilitating.  I struggle to get out of bed, I cry at the drop of a hat or get this awful rage where I could kill.  I wouldn’t kill that’s not the core me but dang. Judgement!
• I have been sexually assaulted more than once.  Older men seem to think it is ok to cop a feel when you’re trying to be nice and giving a hug.  Took me years to speak out on my acquaintance rape.  It happens to men and women.  If you are under the influence period you cannot give consent.  People we need to learn the laws in our own states.
• Funny story when Prince (our pit) was younger the old man at the end of the street was like “he’s sure getting big quick isn’t he”  I’m like “yup growing like a weed”.  Not 4 months later he’s like “I hate pit bulls better keep him out of my yard”.  I thought to myself really? People think I’m a bit bi-polar.  I’m thinking to myself we never get that close to your home anyway.  Plus the worst thing my baby would do is lick your whole face.
• That story brings me to the police and shooting dogs.  I think police should absolutely taze (sp) if anything and preferably let the owner get their dog under control.  There are so many dogs that get rescued each year and killed, it’s sickening.
• Again this is something I am guilty of too but what happened to talking things out?  Not fighting, or just running and telling the boss or just talking behind their back without knowing the whole story but talk to people.
• I’m raising a 16-year-old.  She is not biologically mine but I have had her since she was a baby.  Her grand-parents asked me to raise her and her mother sign temporary guardianship papers.  At the time my daughter was out of the house having kids of her own.  But I prayed about it and believe I made the right choice.  This child is beautiful, smart, funny, a natural leader and a handful.  I would not take back one second of time with this beautiful child that call’s me “mamaw” for anything.  But the same grand-parents that asked me to raise her are judging me on how she is turning out amongst other people.  Seriously people?  You just can’t win in this world.  Especially if you’re middle or low-class.
• I miss my job I truly do but don’t miss the two-faced/racist administration at all.  Worked 18 years with mostly the same people.  Anyone asks how I’m doing?  NO
• My room is a hot mess and it is driving my mother crazy I know it is.  I don’t leave it this way to make her crazy there are just things I want to take care of myself; need to take care of myself and don’t have enough energy to get to it.
• Turn signals: All cars have them but not everyone uses them. Big pet peeve.
• Lights on when it rains:  It’s the law here in Illinois if it’s raining your lights are to be of for safety.  People forget, just ignore the law heck I don’t know. Pet peeve.
• I see why you’re to have kids when you’re young cause you can keep up with them better but I think you should still have the energy when you get older.  Why does everything have to start falling apart. UGH

And lastly and most important; until we can stop hating and fighting in our own little groups, i.e. LGBT, Blacks, Whites, Latinos, Asians etc. this world will never get better.  Why can’t we all get along?  Think about it.  Blacks have lighter skin colored and darker skin colored there is issues there within the Black community.  LGBT we want equal rights but we can’t all even agree.  Some lesbians think transgendered women aren’t true women like some heterosexuals, and those are just a few examples.  Until we can get along in our sub-groups or cultures we will all never truly have peace and be able to get along.  I don’t always agree with the police have done but there are a few bad apples anywhere you go.  Black lives matter.  We all matter.  Life is so short to be offended by this, pissed of at that.  Believe me I am not saying I am perfect and I don’t claim to have been just as guilty but at some point we need to ban together and say enoughs enough.  You are my brother my sister, you are human and we all make mistakes let learn from them and move on.  Stop the killing, stop the labeling, stop judgements.

I’m sure there is more but I am tired and this is along enough.

Love to all!!!!!!!
