Rich People are not Better Than You
People have always accused me of sourrounding myself with people than are "beneath" me. I don't see anyone beneath me is what they don't understand. First, there is no caste system in America. Rich people are not better than you. Please understand that if you think differently, that is the result of capitalism. Your productivity does not determine your worth. The biggest scam played on the American public is that working harder will get you somewhere in life. It almost never does. Rich people have connections to make their dreams work. That's truly the only difference between you and them.

an okay saturday
September 3rd, 2022 It’s been a happy day so far. I’m lying in bed and there are clouds in the sky, occasionally blocking the Sun and introducing the cooling shade of soon to be Autumn, my favorite season. The dark and orange tones of this time of the year soothe me. The sunsets are mesmerizing and the days are both warm and cold.

What Should I Write?
Introduction I haven’t written anything about writing and creation recently, and I have been told that I am lazy and my writing is rubbish and I post too much so nobody reads my posts. These have all been put forward as constructive criticism that I should take notice of.

Why You Shouldn't Have a Crush
Many people get their first crush in elementary or middle school. You first notice the girl sitting next to you in class. She is dressed really nicely today. Her hair is pinned up with a few strands framing her face. She always helps you with your classwork or homework when you get stuck on a question. In the downtime of class, she shares her book with you and lets you read with her. Over time, she becomes the highlight of your day. Every day you come in, you hope she did too, just so you can see her. The thought puts a smile on your face.

I could not stay in that house anymore
I could not take my home life anymore. My parents were addicts and in my eyes, they cared more about their drugs than their own kids. This is how I felt for many years. I would notice how we just had nothing and both my parents worked and worked good jobs some years and we never had a pot to piss in.

Lola
She sleeps under the bedcovers. Protecting both Mama and Daddy. She is such a cute little thing. I take her outside, bathe and protect her as well. It is strange how such and adorable animal a dog can be. Which reminds me, I need to give Lola a bath today.

Stress Is Fuel For Growth, Greater Happiness, And Accelerated Success
The youngest heavyweight in the world boxing champion Mike Tyson once said, “Everybody Has a Plan Until You Get Punched in The Face”. The way I interpret this statement is that we have all gone through periods of success, and high confidence forgetting where we came from. And we all experienced levels of failures, setbacks, or injustices. What I am going to argue in this short piece, is that some of life’s setbacks can be turned to our advantage, converting the stress into mental fitness and abundance. I will also argue that most of the pain we experience is self-inflicted as we focus on the negatives and generate a lot of unnecessary noise and unrealistic deadlines.

Chewy
He was a loyal companion, full of grace and elegance. Always there to wake me up and tuck me in at night. Chewy was his name. He reminded me of the fabled Chewbacca of Star Wars. His brown and black and white colorings. His shaggy hair. His quirkiness. All of these did not compare to his simple wellness and how he calmed me down, every time I petted him and walked and fed and groomed him.

Are some friends really only meant to stay for a little while?
I have been extremely busy and have lost some motivation to do my online recruiting work! Sometimes I wish I was a mom already and had a husband who would take care of the finances, but also maybe when I have that life, I would crave and miss young Dom who had the freedom to pick up her life and move anywhere she desired.

Stop Loving Someone And Start Moving Forward
Most people fall in love with the wrong people at the wrong time. If you suddenly like or love someone, there is nothing left to do. But when you realize that you have fallen in love with the wrong person, the danger is there. Once you fall in love with someone, it is not easy to get rid of him/her. If you realize that you have fallen in love with the wrong person, what will you do?
