Good Woman

Every man hopes to have a good woman by his side, but many don’t realize that women with genuine hearts come with real, powerful emotions.

They feel everything deeply, love with intensity, and give their whole heart to the people they care about.

A good woman is loyal to the core, but her tender heart means she can also become frustrated, hurt,

or emotional when something doesn’t feel right.

This isn’t a sign of weakness

it’s simply because she cares so deeply.

Sure, she might have her moody days, but one thing is certain: when a good woman loves you, it’s a rare, precious kind of love.

It’s a love you won’t find anywhere else.

Value it.

Balance

My husband left his shoes in the middle of the living room floor.

I saw them last night—they are hard to miss. He’s a tall guy and he wears big shoes.

So, instead of tripping over them, I picked them up and placed them into our closet.

I didn’t grumble.

I didn’t get mad.

I didn’t even say a word.

I know you might be thinking…

“Really, Leslie? He’s a 70-year-old man, he can pick up his own dang shoes.”

And you’re right. He can.

But I’m a 64-year-old woman and I can clean the trash out of my car, do laundry, cook, but sometimes—I don’t do it.

But my husband does.

In fact, there’s a lot of things I don’t do that he does.

And there’s a lot of things I do, that he doesn’t.

We’ve learned after nearly 40 years of marriage, there’s just no reason to keep score.

We let go of the little things and work together on the big ones. We’re just two imperfect humans who love each other a lot and decided many years ago to be on the same team.

And to pick up the slack (and the shoes) when necessary.

No peace within a Narcissist

Being in a relationship with a narcissist means there’s always a hidden world unfolding behind your back.

These individuals are deeply empty, constantly seeking stimulation from multiple sources just to get through life. Whether it’s indulging in addictions like drugs or pornography, engaging in emotional affairs, or chasing risky financial ventures that often lead to trouble, they thrive on chaos.

Flirting and stringing people along isn’t just for fun—it’s a strategy. They know they’ll eventually get bored of you or that you’ll start recognizing their games. Since being alone is unbearable for them, they’re always grooming new prospects, ensuring they have a backup supply of admiration and attention.

You’ll also notice their pattern of making promises—dangling them like bait to control you. If you don’t comply, they withdraw the promise. Sometimes, they deny ever making it, or they delay it until you give up. The truth? They never planned to keep it in the first place.

A narcissist has no real moral compass. Their only concern is satisfying themselves, no matter the cost.

When you finally walk away, they’ll circle back, pretending to check on you when, in reality, they’re just seeing if they still have access to you.

If you share a child, they’ll weaponize that child to manipulate and torment you. Unless you set firm legal boundaries or cut them off completely, they’ll continue their psychological warfare. Sadly, the child may be deeply affected—either molded into another narcissist or left emotionally shattered.

Most people don’t truly understand narcissists.

Sometimes, you stay because you fear the pain of leaving—until you realize the pain of staying is far worse.

Other times, you convince yourself you’re staying for the children—until you see that the narcissist is either shaping them into mini versions of themselves or breaking them entirely.

The only solution is to accept the truth: this person is incapable of peace. Their greatest skill is manipulation and keeping you confused.

Real life begins when you detach, reclaim your sense of self, and pursue genuine emotional stability.

She

She sat at the back and they said she was

shy

She led from the front and they hated her

pride

They asked her advice and then questioned her

guidance

They branded her loud then were shocked by her

silence

When she shared no ambition, they said it was

sad

So she told them her dreams and they said she was

mad

They told her they’d listen then covered their

ears

And gave her a hug whilst they laughed at her

fears

And she listened to all of it, thinking she

should

Be the girl they told her to be, best as she

could

But one day she asked what was best for

herself

Instead of trying to please everyone

else

So she walked to the forest and stood with the

trees

She heard the wind whisper and dance with the

leaves

And she spoke to the willow, the elm and the

pine

And she told them what she’d been told, time after

time

She told them she felt she was never enough

She was either too little or far, far too much

Too loud or too quiet, too fierce or too weak

Too wise or too foolish, too bold or too meek

Then she found a small clearing, surrounded by

firs

And she stopped and she heard what the trees said to

her

And she sat there for hours not wanting to

leave

For the forest said nothing, it just let her

breathe

Another wonderful poem that has spoken so deeply to so many of us by @beckyhemsleypoetry

There is an Indian proverb that says that everyone is a house with four rooms, a physical, a mental, an emotional, and a spiritual .

Most of us tend to live in one room most of the time but unless we go into every room every day, even if only to keep it aired, we are not a complete person..

No ordinary Love ❤️

Sade

I discovered Sade while drugged via psychiatry…ala the ” chemical

straightjacket ” and she helped keep the flame of love alive , while

my reality was of the disposal process , of a highly disinterested,

disturbed , detached , depressive person who had dumped all his

shadow on me and one of our children .

Like a light in the dark , a flickering flame , heart knowing that I

would know that love . That light became brighter and brighter as

After having the mother load of trauma , while still shedding decades

and pre birth trauma come all at once , without a single soul being

aware ; a gal befriended me and showed me the female version of

narcissism…It took a while but man, I walked away from that situation

with no regrets . It was an invaluable teaching experience.

I had to learn to roll through my feelings and traumatic memories, to

go within .. That was driven to move to the mountains that brought me

a slower pace , but first I had to slow my mind down …The pace of city

life was a challenge that had to be eliminated .

That accomplished , my normal Pisces mind can ‘roam’ as it were and

I own that , and try to not be overly excited as I was years ago and

it didn’t turn out well…

Thy Will Be Done ..

I have known I had to clear the tragedy and trauma of my family

and I have had to leave that to Divine Love , who know their hearts

and their horror , what they feel… I will trust that healing , for them

will allow healing on a comfortable degree with mother & child .

Today , messaging is of love ❤️…and I had this in mail, and thought

of this song , so anchoring in my world of horrors , and dissolutions .

I had to be able to roll through
