humanity

For better or for worse, relationships reveal the core of the human condition.

A little splash of kindness
The moody woman at the counter told me these boots were waterproof. There couldn't have been a worse day for me to find that this wasnt true.

The 5 Traits People Will Secretly Adore You For
My friend Alex is quite possibly the reincarnation of Casanova. I have never seen anyone who could get so many women to salivate over him just by walking into a room. It didn’t matter if they were shy or outgoing, young or old — they would immediately turn to mush the minute he looked their way.

Money Does Buy Happiness- and it's not F*king Fair
Have you ever been told by someone that money doesn't buy happiness? Well that's poopshit. Money does buy happiness. Not directly, but indirectly, and it still matters just as much. There is a few things that money buys that indirectly makes people with it happy, and that is resources, fun, and security. Without money, I'm sure these rich would be depressed as hell like the rest of us because they would not have all their special perks that are taken completely for granted and disregarded as boring. Then, they would understand why money does buy happiness.

Acts of Kindness
Nearly 6 years ago I graduated from my Master's program. I took a job on the other side of the state from where I had been living for what I thought was a great launching point in my career.

Humanity isn't a religion, but it is more than religion
I don't want to jump into the debate of which religion preaches humanity better than others or which religion is the best illustration of humanity's actual values. Every religion is respectable for me, not because that is true, only because its followers have an emotional connection.

A Comfy Corner I Can Only Wish I Had
When I close my eyes, I can see it. The room of one's own that Virginia Woolf wrote about. It's big enough for me to pace around and talk to myself when I had a stressful day. The walls remind me of the ocean with pictures from my travels decorating them.

Silent Purpose
My definition of silent purpose, is concealing your intentions for more effectiveness. As social creatures, humans tend to blabber too much causing for unnecessary misunderstandings with others. We even like to strike our ego with phrases such as “speak things into existence” but I’m here to debate that mentality.

Step outside
Turning away from all I have heard, all that's been spoon fed. The day feels quick and yet so long and i'm tired and wanting bed. I don't want to work a job that lasts all day for pennies on the dollar. I don't want to rise before the sun and rush through the maze to a building that engulfs me.

Betrayal
No one ever really sits down to talk about what experiences actually change who they are. People dont even realize how things can influence who they are. With attachment comes comes breakage. At some point in some way it does happen. Major or minimal. What actually changes in your mind when you feel betrayed. It'll test your entire control of your emotions. What it means to feel ignorant and immediately blame yourself, sets you up for quick self criticism later on. There is nothing worse than breaking yourself down. When the only explanation is self blame. Coming from confusion. There is never a warning sign and you're completely thrown off guard when someone or something you put all your trust into, becomes your enemy. The thought that it was intentional. It had to be intentional because they were attached to you the same way you were attached to them, right ? So with confusion and ignorance comes failure. I went for it and it hurt me. They hurt me. You failed so you had to of done something wrong. What was wrong about you. Self doubt is center of all the heat. The burning sensation inside that makes you lose all hope. You begin to hate what you see and what you are. But this isn't you so, who is it your staring at. When you began to doubt yourself you began to change. Into a different image. The image the betrayal made you out to be.
