Q&A
For some reason I’m filled with empathy on a whole other level, and my husband always says he admires that about me. Although I love being kind sometimes, my kindness is received as weakness.
I’ve been took for a fool, but trust I am no fool and I believe 100% in karma.
Becoming a mother has softened my heart, immensely, I use to be a hot head who didn’t wait for karma and reacted out of anger. {I’m human and yes sometimes I fly off the handle}
Nonetheless, motherhood has shaped me. The moment I knew I had a human life growing in me, I wanted to do good, I wanted to change what I could in my environment for my child. I found peace in reading Buddhist Affirmations and Mantras. In reading and learning more about the Buddhist Philosophy/Practice, I learned to be more positive and giving.
A loving and giving heart– is a happy heart.
Luckily, for this move we do have unlimited funds for moving/shipping/storage. My husband’s employer is awesome- we’re taking what we want to keep;)
For obvious reasons… that hair!! I’m kidding! I love that she doesn’t take no crap or adhere to the norm. She was never locked in a tower for a man to find her, she proved she could save herself and her family.
I don’t like that she was a bit mouthy with her Mama, but eh, it’s a Disney flick…
Oh I’m a screamer and a bit of a swearer, I’m sure the neighbors won’t miss that about me during the remainder of the football season. 😉
Whew… that is tough…..
I honestly think change begins in the home. We cannot change tomorrow without teaching kindness, understanding and love today.
For the most part I believe hate, judgement, and how to handle it is taught.
So, I guess in a way I’m already working on that in my home with my children. I don’t teach hate and I always remind them of their kind hearts….
I think sometimes social classes and different ideologies bicker and judge one another, perhaps bridging a gap would help… we don’t all have to think or believe the same but we do need to show compassion for one another… at least in my world.
I hate Skittles and you would too if you saw the rainbow the way I did when I was five…. Skittles-overload has its consequences.
