This isn't right, I was moving now its dark and Christ, it hurts. Maybe if I open my eyes it would help. No that's worse, eyes shut and try and work this all out.

Phone Manner
I'm supposed to have a hearing appointment, and I'm late. Technically, half of the company has hearing appointments, at least the half that works on calibrating the hearing aids we produce. Don't want to over-compensate if one of us is hard of hearing and didn't realise, I suppose.

Start Again
Every day is a challenge for me. Six months ago I lost my job due to downsizing to improve profits for the company. There were no redundancy payments for me or the others, we were sacked for "not doing our jobs" but they wouldn't tell us what we hadn't done.

If They Wanted to... They Would.
I've had several people send me reels and articles surrounding this subject and I have been battling feelings of both pleasure and displeasure - feelings of adequacy and inadequacy. I wanted to talk about my own personal thoughts and feelings as a person who was in a committed relationship and also as someone who is single as well as answering from my friendship's perspective. And... not just about the men, but also about my job as a person: "if she wanted to, she would" has come across my radar as well.

A Bowl of Soup a Day. Runner-up in Small Kindness Challenge.
There was no way that I would have seen a future for myself without my wife. She was the peace that gave me hope; she made our house a home. When we learned of her diagnosis, I didn't ever think that it would end with her buried in the plots we had bought together, a mountain of debt, and a home on the concrete as I moved about the city on crutches. I had spent my life working as hard as I could to give my wife the life that she deserved, and now, it takes me half an hour to shuffle down a single block. There is no home without her.

Exploration of the psychological underpinnings of Dark Empaths
Getting Through the Dark: Narcissists vs. Dark Empaths: Understanding, Identifying, and Liberating I have always been fascinated and intrigued by the limitless potential humans hold, which propels us on the path of progression. The odyssey of transforming primitiveness into a touch of modernism is the beauty of the prowess of the human mind. In the vast and complex tapestry that constitutes human relationships, the delicate interplay between these contrasting forces often presents itself as an enigma. Have you ever experienced the captivating yet perplexing dynamics between light and shadow, empathy and narcissism? Within this intricate landscape, dark empaths and narcissists stand out as compelling and enigmatic figures, each characterized by a distinct array of traits and behaviours. On the other hand, susceptible people (HSP), recognized for their deep emotional awareness and sensitivity to the feelings of others, often find themselves traversing the challenging terrain of relationships with these fascinating, yet sometimes troubling, personalities. This journey can be both enlightening and bewildering, as HSPs strive to understand and navigate the emotional landscapes shaped by the contrasting influences of empathy and narcissism.

Hey Kiddo, Can You Help Me Water My Patience Tree?
Why Can't We Just Be Born With Patience? My 6-year-old has the patience of an energetic old lady who acts much younger than she is and has NO time to spare. Her impatience spews out in huffs and teenage-level attitude. My 4-year-old has the patience of a 4-year-old, and her impatience comes out as hurt feelings and bursts of tears. I don't even want to talk about the toddler, whose frustration and impatiences comes out as flopping backward on the ground in Shakespearean drama, usually resulting in a solid THUD from his head connecting to the hardwood floor. I had to buy a protective pillow for him, for fear of his brain cells.
