coping
Life presents variables; learning how to cope in order to master, minimize, or tolerate what has come to pass.
A day in the Life.
A seemingly “normal” day can flip in an instant. A single touch, thought or action can change everything. A loss of control if only for a moment can unravel your entire day, consumed by a singular feeling: fear. Many people experience fear, but in some people, fear isn’t just a worry — it consumes every thought and action. Fear doesn’t discriminate: age, race, sexuality or religion, we will all fear “true” fear at some point in our lives. This is what living with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is like.

Looking back is always a good lesson as long as we continue moving forward and achieving our goals and dreams. When I was little I went through growth and changes that brought me from wanting to be a Teacher to a Mommy, and then to an Insurance Broker. I have wanted to own a crystal store, read cards, make jewelry, write. Every passion I have is creating and I am looking to find a way to make this my path. My journey. Seems I've always been insterested in office work, selling something, ringing up customers, helping people. Customer Service is a very hard job and often completely unappreciated.

Hard to Forgive?
It is impossible to deny the many benefits that would result from people living together in harmony. It does not matter how kind we are; disagreements and strained relationships are inevitable. Therefore, if you wish to resume living in peace with your neighbors, you should work on forgiving one another as soon as possible. After taking into consideration the factors that have contributed to our inability as human beings to forgive, we have realized that the power dynamics at play in this situation are complex.

Who Am I To Forgive Myself?
The world today is full of surprises. Everywhere you turn, the atmosphere is heated up, and left to burn lackadaisically among the ashes of renewed energy. “Where is this new energy you speak so highly of? I’ve been many things in my life but a dumbass won’t one of them!!”
