A few days back, I received an email inviting me to submit poems for the anthology they put out yearly. The deadline is June 11th. Normally I’d probably be scrambling on June 10th, but I was busy procrastinating doing something else that was due immediately, so I sent my poems. The person wrote back thanking me for my promptness. I had to chuckle. Meanwhile, I had allowed something else get to a point of almost missing out on something important. How you see me really depends on how, where, and when we meet.
A friend from when I was 15-16 years old, a senior in high school, who I have been lucky to reconnect with in the last decade or more, ordered several of my ‘divorce’ t-shirts, and then instead of just paying for the shirts, sent more than double the bill. I shake my head even as I read what I just wrote. I was raised to not feel very deserving. Experiences like this thankfully interfere with my brain’s wiring or something. Mainly I find myself shaking my head in disbelief. I thank God/dess for the angels on Earth. I don’t yet have words for how deep this goes for me. On a practical note, it means my phone is still in service.
One of the craziest things I’ve read lately:

Like the crazy man whose orange ass occupied the White House, they seem to think “medical freedom” means you have the right to make others sick and to discriminate against sane people.
In my life, I have often felt like Marilyn in “The Munsters.” When a malignant narcissist is in a position of power, the entire country becomes sick. Good is bad, and up is down. The people who actually care about others are seen as the problem. (At a former job, “nice” and “sincere” were used as insults, so what made me a hit with students caused conflict among some staff.) It happens in unhealthy families, in unhealthy job settings, and now on a much larger scale. To all the Marilyns out there, I appreciate you.
So much love always to CGG-M ❤❤❤

Glad you got your poems in on time. Wishing you success, always!
ReplyDeleteOn a personal note, "Many Marilyn's survived our generation ". Some more abused than others. Trust me, I know.
Vaccines need to be optional, although I've had my two, people have the right to choose what they will allow to be injected into their body. Of course, sadly, 2 edged sword. May not cut them but may cut others.
People of color are apprehensive when it comes to trusting the government and with good reason.
FYI, in my life and thru my own experiences regarding Narcissistic Personality Disorder,
my research showed that 1( one or both oarents, siblings, lovers, spouses, friends, coworkers, teachers, employers, etc) out of every 10 people have N.P.D. Thus, the other 9 are either Empaths or Codependents that are easy targets. Trust me, I know. There are quite a few videos on YouTube by Dr. Ramani.
Watch "The narcissist's lack of empathy (30 DAYS OF NARCISSISM) - Dr. Ramani Durvasula" on YouTube. Free and soooo informative!
I've nevered shared "my story" accept in safe and private spaces. There's never a dry eye in the house by the time I'm done. It's always very painful but necessary for healing myself and for helping others too.
About 15 years ago, I got grounded in God ( cuz without him/her I wouldnt be here) and freed my inner child from being a victim. The road to God took a long long time fortunately he/she shortened the road to my authentic self. I really love myself now and am completely happy not being in an intimate relationship �� with another.
With all my love and best wishes to all the Marilyns, Mindys, Melindas, and on and on...������
