They used to say once you are an adult you no longer have to tolerate.. But what they didn’t tell me was that if your boss is an asshole, walking out and not having a job might not be much of an option. Or if you’re in a marriage where your funds are tied together, it would be a living hell to walk away. That part they left out.

After years of counseling I’ve Come to one absolute conclusion. The world is full of the same people now as the people who f***** me up in my childhood. People ain’t changed much – certainly not for the butter!

LIKE RATS OFF A SINKING SHIP

looking back, I needed a woman in her thirties or forties when I was in my teens and my twenties. Because I was always complaining about the women my own age and how selfish and irresponsible they acted.

ONE STEP UP… For some people Alcoholics Anonymous is a step down for others a step up and for still others a way through. For me it was a step up and away through – which is probably why I stuck around.

WATER SEEKS ITS’ OWN LEVEL Because of my attractive features (Pointed out to me by others), I believe I attracted women who had high expectations. I rarely met a woman if at all that accepted my inability to make a respectable incorespectable income. Given their own attractiveness, at some point I think many of them felt they could do be. As for my own expectations of them… Based upon a mixture of my own personal opinion and experience; I believe many women will not perform at a certain level until certain expectations have been met by their partner. For example, I’ve dated many women who are highly responsible and punctual in their jobs but nothing further from the truth in terms of our relationship. I concluded they had no respect for me because of my lack of financial proxy – And my argument twofold (three?): We live in a society which is largely and increasingly materialistic; The hunter gatherer mentality ingrained in our genes, our DNA, our history; Just like you I too have a family of aunts, uncles, cousins, siblings who’s attitudes and behaviors seem somewhat different towards other members who are highly successful versus other members who are not. Let’s face it, often times the guy with more money tends to get the prettier girl (sadly he just can’t keep her in many cases – the same holds true for beautiful women and their men).

UNLUCKY IN LOVE…

SCREW THIS… If you want to screw your worst enemy over and in the worst possible way, find a way to raise him as your own and be the most dysfunctional parent on the planet you can possibly be!

Under pressure, what’s on the inside comes out!

WHAT A GREAT COMEBACK! 2 of my favorite comebacks are “is it?” and “maybe…”

We stay sick in this country because we don’t dare reveal what we’ve been up to or what we’ve become or what we no longer are – And yes, if I were the devil left precisely how I would want to bring mankind down and keep him there.

UNITED WE STAND… (The brotherhood of man) NEVER TEAR US APART (INXS) You want to Usher people into the 21st century then let’s do it-but let’s make it about MANKIND as a – hole and not about you! Let’s start building a society of people that are…. Rather than a society of people who are…

“Why do you write (fight)?” “”Because I can’t sing or dance! ” from Rocky

Fear of change? For many of us change didn’t entail a bigger house, in a better part of town; or a bigger, better car. Nor parents who gained in wisdom and love as they grew older.

When all else fails be kind and helpful to others.

You can learn a lot between the love of a parent and a child. I’m always curious as to why love between a man and a woman seems to take a dive in comparison to love between a parent and a child. Many people seem to think that love between a parent and a child is forever and that that should differ between a man and a woman. The Bible doesn’t say that. I guess the thought of having to put up with your child and your partner for the rest of your life is just too much for some people to bare! The other thing that differs between appearance love and the love of a partner is that with our children we accept them as they are whereas with our partners we expect them to make our lives tolerable if not better. Don’t we put up with our children for better or for worse? And doesn’t it say the same thing in The Bible? I never knew there was such a thing as conditional love. It’s like saying artificial air or artificial water…..

One of my all time favorite lines is from the movie “Rob Roy”. Mary, played by Jessica Lang becomes pregnant after being raped and has to tell Rob, played by Liam Neeson. When the time comes for Mary to confront Rob about the incident, tears streaming down her face, “I tried to kill it Rob but I couldn’t”. Rob responds by saying ” It’s not the child that needs killing Mary!” There’s a message in there for all who have undergone similar circumstances – A great courage and spirit are required – perhaps greater than any ever demanded of you before!

3 wishes – they’re not even like each other, they just think they are!

You understand the words but you miss the meaning!

You know how you can depict the highest attributes and the lowest attributes of humanity? Same way you can with animals. The bell curve! Now you could argue that by choice rather than by ability or lack thereof… The bell curve is an indication which reflects just that. You see with human beings ascending or descending restricted solely to ability (or lack thereof), but also willingness – and probably more often than not. Humans do not fail to ascend the latter of potential so much out of inability as by choice! Just ask any super-achiever who wrote a book on human accomplishment, and I guarantee you somewhere in that book… if the explanations for peoples vast and varied differences in achievement were restricted one’s ability alone – one could argue that that which created it’all did something of a piss-poe… or half-assed-job! Which of course we know not to be the case.👩‍🎓

Do your past experiences with people certain preclude you from caring about certain people?

My creditors are more attentive than my family – every month I git 10 bills a month, 120 a year, 600 over a 5 year period – you know how many letters I git from family? One, maybe two a year. THERES JUST NO WAY YOU SHOULD GIT MORE LOVE FROM CTEDITORS THAN FAMILY! I HAVE 10 CREDITORS AND 100 FAMILY MEMBERS – AND THE RATIO OF MAIL IS 60 to 1 in favor of creditors even though the ratio is 10 to 1 in favor of family. Ridicules. The other beef I have is that there’s no way people should be visiting their bank more than their Church – NO WAY!

And the thing with the Catholic priests… the people may be flawed but God’s word isn’t!

“Can I ask you a question””

“Yeah”

“Why do you wanna write? “

“Cause I can’t sing in’ dance – yoooooo”

There’s a difference between being respected and not being disrespected! You know what that difference is? One’s a positive and the other one’s a double negative.🙄

These 2 people have been dating for a while, and one evening the subject comes up about having children. The young lady hoping to avoid the subject altogether – Comes clean and tells the man “I can’t have children” – He smiles at her and says “I can’t either”.😇

I learned so much from watching old movies as a child. Things I never learned but should have from the people around me.

One of my favorite movie scenes is from bewitched where darwood is at work work and comes up with an idea and Larry tells him it’s horrible and then the client comes in and says how wonderful it is hilarious that’s that’s why we keep darwood on staff here

Some people don’t recognize a good hearted person when they meet them. And some people just don’t care.

Look at the little things God thinks of when He made us… Like a little lump at the base of our back of our front lower teeth so that when we bite into something it doesn’t skin or tear the point where the gum meets the tooth.

Both my blood type and my IQ are roughly in the 97th percentile isn’t that interesting I wonder what the differences between individuals character Victor and their blood type being positive or negative? Mine is positive.

I seem to notice people who are born under certain signs seem to have certain character traits – I wouldn’t thunderestimate the power of the position of the stars inn the universe when someone is born

I was about my father’s age when I had my 1st child. It’s funny how these patterns ripple through generations. How parents have 2 kids and then their children have 2 kids.

I noticed something very interesting about my mother’s and father’s ages but I can’t for the life of me remember what it was.

Jesus and I are both capricorns

I got nothing to offer these people-they want To be taken out to dinner, houst, to be entertained… to be pleasured or serviced take your pick, some of them want to look good in the eyes of others, someone the perks that go along with… I don’t have any of those things to offer a woman.

BY THE GRACE OF… THE BANKS HAVE DONE AWAY WITH THE GRACE PERIODS – Their explanation several years ago? Will you get your statement a couple of weeks ahead of time now, so you don’t need one. Well that’s the same thing as when your parents and your grandparents and mine did business. We got our statements a couple of weeks ahead of time so what? This is another way that mankind is encroaching and taking away any kind of disadvantage on their part. So now the day that it’s due if it’s not paid they can charge a late fee. And Even though a lot of places are willing to wave the late fee they want you to pay that anyways. You owe a $90 payment and a $35 late fee they still want you to pay a $125 on that payment for the month even though they’re waving the fee. I’m telling you the stronger these banks and companies get the more demands they make on us. That’s why we have to keep them weak. And then for being late a couple of days they said they can ordinarily raise the interest rate. I checked my calendar and saw that the 3rd Wednesday this month was the 19th and that’s why Twi I relied on waiting for Wednesday to come to make the payment. It’s the 21st and on 2 days late. The representative said they can charge a late fee and raise the interest rate for being late. I asked her what happened to the grace.? She giggled…

Anything over 25% was considered lone sharking and in my book it still is.

Everybody wants to rule the world-JC Penney. I went in one day and made a payment for $50 when the payment should have been 52. I told myself that I would call and make the other $2 payment when I get home which I forgot. During the covid in the covid era.. I didn’t get a statement the following month and I didn’t get an acknowledgment or anything like that that I was late 2 dollars on my payment. As a matter of fact I didn’t get a call or a text from them for 6 weeks. Reperiod resulting in not 1 but 2 late fees. Why didn’t they give me a text within a few days or 10 days of that $2 being late? They ended up charging Me Too! Late fees that they were only allowed to remove one… AHA now I can see why they waited 6 weeks to notify me instead of 2 weeks. They were gonna get 1 late fiat if it weren’t aware of the other . So come that they dropped my credit from 3800 down to my current balance of $1230. Thank God I had that much as a bound. What would they have done otherwise If I had had an $8 balance? So they waved one late feet and they got 1 out of me – calling it even?

For many a gal I dated who left, I’m a step down but for me she is not a step down – atleast not in my mind 🤔 This is usually the case when it comes to making a decision about partners. I noticed with one gal (maybe I just became more aware at some point) there was always a lot of evaluating going on. And when we first met she would say my ex husband didn’t do this or did that… Citing a lot of the positives about our new relationship that were absent in her marriage. You know what the difference is between an avocado, a tomato, and a prospective partner with some people – not much!

What makes people choose or settle for the jobs that they do? It will? I mean obviously the system has all these types of jobs and wants them to be filled so don’t tell me there’s not some programming going on there. But on the other hand people have the option of settling or ascending. So what makes people ascend and what makes people settle? I mean what if everyone wanted to be a bank president what would stop them?

I had a woman I dated tell me all the time how good looking I was, but you never told me anything about my character or personality?

The problem with defense mechanisms and people we love and deeply care about is that sometimes they work – too well!

It’s not a sin or a bad quality or a character defect to be on a disability. But a lot of people end up paying for it just the same whereas a lot of people with a bad quality commission call Mason, bad character often are overlooked by their partner’s.. By the opposite sex out there looking for a partner.

Whatever situations in life you face try to leave the ego out of it but. Unless of course you can come up with some ideas where ego is a good idea?

If you are among the unloved you may be one of those people astute at revealing whether a person is capable of true love or conditional love or pretend love. You see, in the world many people’s definition of love is based upon what they do for each other. And still others, pleasure-based!

IN A PERFECT WORLD-Jesus was not concerned with what other people thought because what does it matter when one acts perfectly, when one’s relationship with God is perfect, when one believes perfectly, and is completely free from guilt, shame, remorse… How is it that so many of us are concerned with what others think?

Looks like you got it all figured out-from the movie hard times with Charles Bronson

People who think highly of the world clearly clearly know how to operate within it. Because because let me tell you, if you do not operate within the the world’s rules you find out very quickly that it isn’t a nice place. Of course there are always those capable of convincing themselves hell is a nice place to visit
