Something to think about …. “Giving You Fair Warning”!!

~~February 15, 2016~~ 

POWER OF A WOMAN

I’m going to have to “toot my own horn” here a little bit

I consider myself to be a fairly level-headed human being.

I have lived my life as best as I could, with the tools I’ve been given.

I don’t profess to be perfect or without fault.

Yet, I think I have a good heart.

I never do anything with the intention of hurting anyone.

I have “big ears” and I listen to people (that was basically my job my entire professional life – to those who believe that I am indeed a medical doctor not only a therapist).

I consider myself a true and loyal friend.

Ask around, I think plenty will agree.

I hold dear and very close to my heart the values that my parents and my teachers taught me.

Have I strayed? Have I made mistakes?

Yes, I have.

I’ve always acknowledged that I’m not perfect.

I will not accept, from others, descriptions about myself which aren’t accurate.

I won’t accept that I don’t have integrity because I do have plenty of that.

I won’t accept that I’m evil … because “evil” is a very strong word.

(Beware of anyone who is projecting that thought about themselves).

I will accept that I enjoy the occasional gossip story. Yet,  I won’t accept that I gossip to the degree that others’ lives are destroyed. I don’t gossip with the intention of hurting others.

I won’t accept that I’m a “drama queen” either.

If I sin at anything, it’s about caring too much and being somewhat naive.

This leads me to allow some people into my life and my very private and personal circle.

I’m too trusting.

I’ve allowed some in … and it’s lead to disappointment and hurt.

To tell you the truth, I wasn’t intending to use this graph to write this.

It seems that it was meant to be because, here I am, stating not to underestimate the power of a woman who has Puerto Rican blood.

And, that woman is me. 

If anyone thinks they are hurting me, keep in mind that I’m an adult senior citizen. I have a wonderful, satisfying personal and private life. I’m financially comfortable, retired and really happy.

You, on the other hand, were part of my life.

You are not in my life anymore.

You are the one missing out.

NEVER UNDERESTMINATE THE POWER OF A WOMAN

WHO HAS PUERTO RICAN BLOOD

That’s not a threat.

That’s a fact.

A woman with Puerto Rican blood is strong.

The power within me can withstand all that is sent out my way.

My self-esteem, the security I carry within, the assurance that I am more than worthy, my foundation and my SELF, make me strong.

THAT’S THE POWER WITHIN ME.

That will NEVER waver and that YOU will never weaken or touch!

If you think it “takes balls” to do things in front of me ….

Hey, I take that as a compliment and it’s total ignorance on your part.

That comment, and plenty more, show who you really are.

If the shoe fits, wear it.

FAIR WARNING!!

To start the day …. “First Gay Hug: A Homophobic Experiment”!!

~~October 4, 2015~~ 

FIRST GAY HUG

I find this video to be simple and very educational.

In very poignant ways it demonstrates how straight people view LGBT people.

It brings out some of the incorrect beliefs that heterosexuals may have related to gay people.

It also brings out the fact that these beliefs may be based on bible teachings.

“A hug is an international form of physical intimacy in which two people put their arms around the neck, back, or waist of one another and hold each other closely.”

(Per Wikipedia).

Bottom line, hugging a gay person doesn’t take away anything from a straight person.

As one lady said: “I’m still normal, right?”

I love hugs … getting them and giving them.

I take them from anyone I can.

And, I give good hugs back.

What about you?

‘First Hug’ video pairs up gay and homophobic strangers

Jolie Lee, USA TODAY Network, March 20, 2014

What happens when you ask a gay person and a homophobic person to hug?

“First Hug” paired strangers with opposite views on sexuality to embrace each other on camera. The video was produced by The Gay Women Channel, which posts weekly videos on YouTube.

“We didn’t just want to do a spoof but do a version that had meaning behind it,” said Sarah Rotella, one of the creators of The Gay Women Channel, in an interview with USA TODAY Network.

The video is a parody of “First Kiss,” a video that asked 20 strangers to kiss, produced by clothing company Wren. “First Kiss” has inspired other spin-offs, including Tonight Show host’s Jimmy Fallon’s version with kittens and puppies.

“First Hug” begins with the strangers talking before they hug.

“Why did you ever think it was a sin?” a gay man asks a woman.

“Because it says so in the Bible,” she replies.

A man asks a gay man,” “How do you kiss another guy?

I don’t get that.”

“The same way you kiss another girl,” the man replies.

Despite different viewpoints, the pairs end up hugging it out.

“I’m still normal, you’re still normal,” one woman says.

“As it appears in …. full read. full credit”
