I have some velvet/velour George Costanza pants and they are the absolute softest and warmest pair of pants I have ever owned. I never wore them when I lived in Florida but now that I live in this snow covered crap-hole, they have come in handy. I can't wear them after work however. There's this fat guy who lives with me and if I have the pants on then he must sit in my lap and while the pants are sufficiently warm on their own, you put a fat guy on top of them and it's way too hot. I fight with him to get off my lap for about an hour and then I just give up the pants. Destine wins again and he has the nice warm cozy black pants. #catlover

What's sad is I didn't have parents to stir me in the right direction but as a parent now how in the hell could you not??? I always wanted my kids to have so much more than what I had and i have fought tooth and nail to see that they had a better life than me.. I never had someone to hug me and say I love you.. i never had someone to push me in school.. My life has and will always be my kids and grandkids... how could a parent ever not push their kids to be somebody??? How could you ever just give up on your kids? Well I can't and I wont as long as there is a breath in my body i will always show and tell my kiddos how much I love them and not let them give up!

If you don’t have friends that check you, they aren’t your friends. It doesn’t even have to be in a bad way It really helps you to focus when they remind you of your path and give you advice and great ideas” - Natalie Nelson I’m always saying this and that’s really how important I think it is. A lot of the self awareness I have now has came from the blunt , tell you about yourself energy from my friends. One in particular does it and always reminds me what my goals are because I tend to forget. It may seem like they are being harsh but I need it like that to really understand. I have a stubborn personality and ripping of bandaids is the way to set me straight. I don’t offend easily and I just really appreciate knowing I really have people in my circle that want to see me grow and succeed.

I think two things that are important to start off with in your “spiritual” journey is learning about nutrition and the ego. Foundationally when you learn how to heal your body through the food you consume your mind opens up and the way you recieve the world changes. Your physical health and every other area of your life goes hand and hand together. Secondly I think it’s important to learn about the ego because this is what we deal with on a day to day basis and I believe that understanding the separation between your ego and your higher self will help with the way you navigate life (shadow work is great!), the way you deal with people, even the way you receive information. I don’t think we are ever going to be perfect when it comes to that but being able to point out when it is your ego is very helpful when it comes to your journey through life. But I only say this because this was the order of my experience and I’m glad because it really assisted in my flow of understanding things.

Sometimes I really wonder about things. Actually, I do so quite frequently. Like, am I making the right choices for myself? What may come of any of these decisions in the nearby future? I never get any exact answer- I have worries and fears like many other people. I'm just not sure if right now I should let them stop me or just say forget it and move forward with certain choices. I even go as far as to think out possible outcomes and scenarios to almost anything and yet, still it doesn't help. I really hope i'm not just crazy.
