Gees it sure has been a minute since I've last posted...
I have to be honest... past few weeks have been totally overwhelming. Mentally, physically & emotionally.... It all kind of caught up with me at once and I was gasping for air... I needed to shut down and reboot my body mind and soul!
I made myself a decision, temporarily stop attending church as everything is all becoming too much for me, It doesn't mean I don't believe, it doesn't mean I'm never going to go to church again, this is a personal decision... I know everyone has their own methods and probably better methods to boot, but I've made a decision for my self knowing its what I need at this point in time... Probably going to be judged, or people are going to think I'm stupid for standing on the edge of an already slippery cliff slope.... you may not even understand, and there's no way to explain that will ever make sense... just understand I've made my choice please, respect my decision as you would any Tom Joe or Hardy.
Now, onward and upward!
I've had tricky business interacting with my fellow humans lately, and I have been thinking and well, I came across an old FB post today while I was checking out what folks have been up to of late, also making a post about gee con this weekend, irrelevant.... hah 😅... moving on here's the post with a little additional clarification
"The truth is that the more you know someone the more clearly you'll see their flaws... That's just the way it is, and people tend not to like imperfect these days! That's why marriages fail... Why children are abandoned... Why friendships don't last... You may think you love someone until you see the way they act when they're out of money, under pressure, angry, tired hungry...
For goodness sake. Love is something different. Love is choosing to serve someone and be with someone in spite of their filthy moods, messy heart, dirty habits, silly decisions... Love is patient.. Love is kind... Love is deliberate.. Love is hard work... Love is pain and sacrifice.. It's seeing darkness in another person and instead of jumping ship choosing to shine brighter and dispel the darkness when it sometimes comes"
It's hard not to create these perfect ideals to find someone who is "perfect for you"
But perfect in REALITY is a fluid term anyway right? every set of eyes sees something different, "one mans trash, is another mans treasure" "beauty is in the eye of the beholder"
there are all these stigmas around "the perfect" person... or "there's no such thing as perfect"
WHAT DOES PERFECT LOOK LIKE TO YOU?
is it his/her crooked smile? their double chinned goofy snap chats?
We look at ourselves and all we see are things we want to change, things we hate, "too fat" here, "ugly" mole there " .... but little do you know someone could be looking at you and wishing they were just like you, or they had your life or your looks....
Don't even start me on the way the world views the way we look 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
BUT ANYWAY, back to the point... who needs a check list, just pocket the "check list" and focus on just getting to know the person instead of looking for flaws.
there's this quote from Doctor who, my all time couple goals "The Ponds"
--------------------------------------------------------------------
HITS ME RIGHT IN MY SOUL. because its SO true...
maybe as people, to negate our own insecurities and dislikes, we focus on those things about everyone else to make ourselves feel better... I don't know, I can form speculations but I guess we will never really know CONCERNING everyone...
I swear I have a point... 😅😂🤣💙💙💙
PERFECT is fluid, LOVE yourself, be OPEN AND MINDFUL because this life is already hard enough, we don't need to make it harder NO MATTER the situation. (Blanket statement) obviously I know every situation has its factors and considerations... but more often than not... people just want to be loved entirely...
I know I do, in my head theres a million little me's running around to the alarms every time someone glances my way....
Am I too fat?! Is my Palsy noticeable?! How many chins do they see??!?!?!
It's like a reflex to inflict this crazy pain on ourselves... so maybe someone else is already thinking these things too, Do you REALLY even know? Do you want to ADD EVEN MORE on top of their "OMGOSH" pile?
Just Love... and see what happens. :)
Your Reformed, but forever weird and nerdy

“You know when sometimes you meet someone so beautiful, and then you actually talk to them, and five minutes later they're dull as a brick. But then there's other people, and you meet them and you think 'not bad, they're okay', and then you get to know them, and their face sort of becomes them, like their personality's written all over it, and they just they turn into something so beautiful..."
