Hello. Hi.

Happy Wednesday!

You do know writing isnÕt real?
Right? Right.
Writing is a form of expression.
Writers
hold the right not to be personally judged by their writings since writing is
subjective. (WeÕre all caught up to first year college composition? Right.)
Yes. Good.
Modern
men are intelligently mature enough to read about womenÕs health otherwise mature
men donÕt read certain aspects to womenÕs health.
Yes,
modern men ask questions about their female friendsÕ fallopian tubes filled
with blood. I donÕt know. Seek a medical doctor.
~~~
IÕm human.
IÕm a citizen.
No,
IÕm not the ŅqueenÓ of the world. IÕm steady. IÕm a citizen. IÕm a worker bee.
If anything I mind the (figurative literary) helm and keep a direct and calm
course forward to forgive and forget. I believe in Indigenous medicine of Ņmind
over matterÓ and breathe and relax and sit whenever possible and am emotionally
strong and donÕt allow for toxic individuals to (figurative literary) Ņpoison
the mind.Ó
Yes,
the truth is I donÕt belong in this Midwestern culture. There, finally. The
truth.
Yes,
for the past twenty-years IÕve been treated as a Native American with fear and
contempt or a foreigner which I canÕt help to have been adopted at the age of
ten.
Ten
years of age is, too, late to adopt children from foreign countries due to
autoimmune diseases. IÕm hardwired for an overall Costa Rican pace of life and
sensitivities.
~~~
No, I donÕt like living in Minnesota.
Minnesota is well established for its quiet racism.
No,
itÕs no secret I havenÕt ever liked any type of Midwestern racism and insular
religious culture. IÕve lived in New York City and Boston and New England and
Costa Rica and canoed and rock climbed and seen the vistas and understand other
cultures are by far more humane and civil than the Midwest loathes people of
color especially the Native Americans therefore racism prevails and
micro-aggression is only funny to a certain point even though we keep laughing
at micro-aggression.
By
the age of ten I was already hardwired ha for a beautiful pace of life such as
peaceful Costa Rican laid-back culture yet extremely strict with the Indigenous
since thereÕs also much racism in Costa Rica.
ThereÕs
no reason to be insecure.
Errands
need to be run.
~~~
Back story to a grateful attitude.
Fibroid
tumors humbled me whenever hunched over from eight years of severe #7, #8 and #9
uterine Fibroid tumor pains and severe Carpal Tunnel Syndrome which I no longer
have either wrist pain or uterine pain.
2006
I stood in line for EBT card and emergency housing assistance when my unemployment
benefits ran out. IÕm the least snobbish or harsh toned or mean spirited or
ungrateful person. IÕm grateful for each day without uterine fibroid tumor
pain. IÕm the same person year after year. Greetings and Salutations.
The
only people IÕve ever met hunched over the way I was hunched over with uterine
fibroid tumor pain were 90 year olds with osteoporosis.
~~~
IÕve been informed.
Finally
IÕve been informed to Ņwake up and smell the coffeeÓ people of color donÕt hold
the same rights as Caucasians do. Good to know. Thanks. I was adopted into a
Caucasian family therefore I thought I held the same rights as Caucasians until
this summer 2017. Now, I get it. Pigmentation dictates how people get treated
with respect or not.
Writing
isnÕt real. Writing isnÕt real. Writing isnÕt real.
Writing
is opinionated and biased thoughts of one individual or individuals without
having to sell anything to anyone.
No,
this blog isnÕt me. This blog is about life in general as the times we live in.
This blog is a writing tool to express thoughts about our modern day life.
No,
this blog hasnÕt ever made any money from the content.

HashimotoÕs Disease
Since
I was twenty-five years of age my dad (masterÕs degree in psychology) told me
he thinks I donÕt have a mental illness.
Rather
I have some type of thyroid condition.
To
catch a thyroid condition is nearly impossible therefore people with either hypothyroidism
or hyperthyroidism are more apt to be misdiagnosed with a mental illness rather
than a curable yet quite serious thyroid illness or autoimmune disease.
ItÕs
quite dangerous to the patient to be misdiagnosed with a mental illness when in
fact itÕs a thyroid illness and the concern is physical and not mental.
One
can be tested for years or decades and not have any findings of any type of
thyroid condition even though one lives with all of the symptoms of either hypothyroidism
or hyperthyroidism.
The
reason why I donÕt feel insane is because throughout most of my life IÕve been
a dutiful and steady and obedient person who sleeps like a baby and gets up and
gets my days going and dealt with life as beautifully as one can.
Yes,
IÕve known for decades I live in a Midwestern culture of micro-aggression
therefore all one can do is laugh about the injustices of the world.
My
friends (white and people of color) tell me the reason why I ended up in a
72-hour hold on August of 2017 is because I was terrified to speak to the police
when the cops came to the front door of the house.
My
friends tell me itÕs an easy mistake to make, not to want to speak to the cops
yet cops consider themselves above the law and cops are under the impression or
believe citizens must engage with cops and I didnÕt know it at the time.
In
order for cops to detain people, cops must first hold warrants especially when
one doesnÕt hold any priors or a clean record all the way to the age of forty.
If
people are to be detained then please read people their rights and peacefully
take people to jail is the first step. People have rights. ThereÕs protocol.
~~~
Yes,
IÕm a 1990Õs generation and I was taught we can always peacefully walk away
from cops and not have to speak to cops for any reason whatsoever especially if
we have nothing to do with the situation at hand.
In
hindsight my friends tell me I ought to have been willing to speak to the white
cops rather than peacefully walked away from the cops.
My
friends tell me not to beat myself up over it for being scared to speak to white
cops since most people of color are terrified to speak to white cops since
people of color donÕt know if weÕll be shot on the spot and killed or murdered
by white cops.
ItÕs
a fact of the times. Not because I say it.
Anytime,
the cops get involved with people of color then we know our chances to either
be sexually assaulted or murdered go up by 300%. We know.
Yours
Truly;
Gabriel

ŅFooling people with words

Hello. Hi.

My
new favorite movie is ŅDrop Dead Gorgeous.Ó
Is
it insane for an entire culture to be monotheist? Yes.
Is
it insane for an entire culture to be one skin color and hold most of the control
in social engineering? Yes.
Is
it insane not to want to be conditioned to socialize with passive-aggression?
No.
Factual
modern science now proves passive-aggression is a form of emotional abuse and
psychological abuse except the people who act passive-aggressively donÕt have
the courage to be direct or quiet. ŅIf you donÕt have anything nice to say then
donÕt say anything at all.Ó
The
reason why the Midwest continually stays trapped in the racist past is because
racism is disguised with passive-aggression rather than direct racism while
passive-aggressive racism is not only racist also emotionally abusive and
downright cruel.
Why
do Northern Minnesota Caucasian Midwestern women take offense to people of
color who donÕt like to socialize with passive-aggressiveness?
Passive-aggression
isnÕt a disguise for humor. No.
Passive-aggression
is meant to insult.
Passive-aggression
is a cowardly way to communicate.
Why
do Caucasians take offense to people of color who donÕt want to socialize with
harsh innuendos or bitterness and people who carry a chip on their shoulders
when Caucasians have all of the control and power and money?
Why
do Caucasians take offense to people of color knowing the racial struggle is
real and exists?
Why
do Caucasians not like having their social structures rejected?
Why
do Caucasians continue patterns of abuse when Caucasians feel their control
slips away from them?

Postscript about the English Language
~~~
Typos
Ha.
Truly,
my favorite thing in the entire world is to catch typos from the White House or
this current Administration or T.V. crawlÕs or supers or newspaper articles and
community websites and I expect typos on blogs.
ThereÕs
only one international publication for which doesnÕt ever have any English
typos or misspellings. Wow.
All
good writers require great editors.
Writing
is typing out thoughts or ideas or notes or records.
Editing
is reading and making corrections to the language.
Grammar
is difficult.
English
is difficult.
Spelling
is a nightmare.
If
English isnÕt oneÕs first language then English is a nightmare to contend with
especially when one ŅdoesnÕt have any accentÓ then English born speakers expect
people without any accent to be at a level of English the same as English born
speakers. Impossible standard.
~~~
English is nearly impossible
Most
people who speak other languages fluently
will tell anybody they would rather speak Somali than English or Spanish than
English or French than English or Italian than English or Portuguese than
English or Japanese than English or Chinese than English or any other language
than English otherwise anything can easily get lost in translation and
miscommunication may ensue or not.
Wars
are a byproduct of greed and miscommunication.
However,
English is blunt and direct of all of the languages therefore English is the
easiest for war talks and business talks which any humane attitude will soften
dusty discriminations.
Great
spelling is something to aim for, however and truly not ever required.
~~~
Ideas are larger than misspelled words
Personally,
IÕm not able to catch my own misspellings, however. OthersÕ misspellings I can see a mile away. ItÕs fun to make
corrections to incorrect grammar or misspellings.
ItÕs
fun to laugh at typos.
Personally,
I laugh out loud whenever I encounter any misspelled words.
Personally,
I do smile whenever I encounter any of my very own misspelled words. What was I
thinking? I wasnÕt. What I do is I quickly type out thoughts larger than
misspelled words.
Misspelled
words are easy to fix.
An
idea or well written thought is usually awesomely written or not therefore,
itÕs best to hang on to the ideas and later return to the typos or
misspellings.
Some
day I look forward to working with a great editor and publisher simply because
my misspellings are a pet-peeve of mine. See English is quite difficult to
speak well much less write well.

Modern Mexican Spanish
Is like modern Mayan Spanish
Neither
am I good at Spanish or English or modern Maya.
Modern
Mexican Spanish is the prefix and suffix done away with all completely from the
beginning or the end of any Spanish words without ever replacing the prefix or
suffix with anything else to fill out the center of the words then whatÕs left
over in the center of any words is then compressed into a run-on sentence of
words missing the prefix and suffix with only the middle of each words left to
interpret and spoken quite fast. Spoken faster than English. ItÕs hard work to
translate. I need a Spanish dictionary.
No,
I donÕt speak modern Mexican Spanish, however. If I phonetically write down
modern Mexican Spanish as I sound it out then I may be able to translate it as
well as possible.
Modern
Maya Spanish is the prefix and suffix are done away with and all completely
from the beginning or the end of any Spanish words with the replacement of
Mayan prefix and suffix in front of and after each Spanish words in a sentence
with words missing the prefix and the suffix replaced with Maya prefix and
suffix with only the middle of each word left to interpret and spoken quite
fast.
No,
I donÕt speak modern Maya Spanish, however. If I phonetically write down modern
Maya Spanish as I sound it out then I may be able to translate it at as well as
possible. ItÕs hard work to translate. I need a Spanish dictionary.

Health
The
thyroid gland is at the base of the neck below the ŅAdamÕs Apple.Ó
For
the past eleven years what I give Ņthanks and praiseÓ for weekly socialization
time and building respectful bonds and some close friendships with neighbors
even though few neighbors and I have seldom had any problems of any type if at
all.
My
neighbors tell me I peacefully get along with anybody unless people are in fact
physically violent against my body then my neighbors believe I have the right
to self protection from any physical violence at all.
For
the past eleven years throughout the years most of my neighbors and I have been
quite respectful and friendly or attend each otherÕs social functions or
parties or shovel or cut each otherÕs lawns or go to book clubs or share
recipes and share homemade food and mainly always stand in the front yard and
hardly ever go inside of each otherÕs abodes throughout the years and decades
of asking each other how weÕre doing and howÕs our day going.
Throughout
the decades we share in hot cups of tea or hot cocoa over conversations and catch
up over the day or week then go back to what weÕre doing, either write or clean
or job hunt or telecommute from home.
~~~
Thank you to the Somali-American Muslims
The
Portland, Maine Somali-American Muslims teach me to hold strong friendships and
bonds to Muslims even though Muslims know IÕm not Muslim.
The
Portland, Maine Somali-American Muslims teach me not to be isolated in the
world and to hold more bonds then I wonÕt become vulnerable to emotional or
psychological abuse, per se.
The
Portland, Maine Somali-American Muslims are my best friends of the past three
straight years who live with me and know me to be calm, cool and collected and
relaxed and cautious person who loathes conflict.
The
Portland, Maine Somali-American Muslims teach me to overlook age and be best
friends anyway and laugh at our socio-economic situations therefore we have
good laughs together because weÕre wise.
~~~
Personally,
I enjoy being friends with Muslims since men and women donÕt touch unless by
modern standards brothers and sisters are considered surrogate family members then
perhaps once per year modern Muslim men do warmly shake hands or warmly embrace
their sister friends.
The
greatest compliment told is by three Somali-American Muslim best friends of the
past three years who guarantee me IÕm not ŅinsaneÓ since some of my three best
friends worked in the field of therapy and have gotten to know me and see me every
day year-after-year and tell me IÕm of sound mind and spirit.
As
of recently by another party IÕm implored to consider my sanity and to give in
and admit IÕm insane and go collect disability.
My
best friends laugh out loud and say, ŅSo, what if youÕre insane? The accusatory
party must also prove the accusatory party isnÕt insane and go through therapy
together to prove neither party is insane.Ó
If
IÕm factually found insane then IÕm implored to get on disability as soon as
possible and have the state pay me and the other party will be happy.
However,
my friends tell me to be strong and stay healthy.
My
friends tell me not to stress out about anything.
My
friends tell me to build confidence.
My
friends tell me itÕs all a mind game.
My
friends tell me not to ever ask for permission to go to the bathroom.
My
friends tell me not to ever ask for permission.

Fainting
Hypothyroidism
No,
I donÕt go around fainting.
Yes,
since my mid-twenties my dadÕs been telling me he thinks somethingÕs wrong with
my thyroid and not with my mind.
Yes,
since December 10th, 2017 the two out of the three times I fainted
have occurred in front of my best friends who were kind and gracious enough to
let me take my time and place my head between my legs and breathe.
The
only reason I faint is only when IÕm overdressed.
As
of now IÕm no longer able to wear long johns in the winters and no more than
two light layers at a time while outdoors.
My friends reassure me it is okay to get
cold while outdoors out and about in the winters since people who live in cold weather
do incrementally get frost bite on their exposed skin each time we go outside.
My
friends tell me I have a thyroid condition of some type.
My
friends tell me to dress in layers.
My
friends told me to make a doctorÕs appointment and I have.
My
friends know for the past four years IÕve been tested for any type of thyroid
condition except any type of thyroid condition is difficult to detect.
Having
the thyroid be ill is the same as a slow painless death.
A
slow quiet death with numb pain at the base of the throat and either slightly
chocking on some types of hard foods or seeds or if one breathes the wrong way then
one begins to choke and have a coughing fit or neck placement can hurt the
throat or drink temperature can impede the thyroidÕs temperature gauge or
extreme body temperature changes from comfortable body temperature to boiling
hot from 0 to 60.
A
slow quiet death with fainting when overheated.
A
slow quiet death with continuous muscle or bone or nerve pain which doesnÕt
ever go away and is what ŅfibromyalgiaÓ must feel like with extreme exhaustion yet
people get up each day and go about their full days and work and fix meals.
A
slow quiet death of slow metabolism and weight gain.
A
low quiet death of dry skin and brittle hair.
A
slow quiet death of occasional fog brain.
A
slow quiet death of possible depression symptoms.
A
slow quiet death of severe cravings for sugar.
No
longer have any Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Hooray.
Yes,
I must give up American fast food especially food injected with hormones or
antibiotics. Sigh.
Yes,
I must eat less quantity and more vegetables and fruits.
Yes,
the Minnesotans inhale their food.

I donÕt see ŅDog Headed Men.Ó
No,
I donÕt see ŅDouble Gangers.Ó
No,
I havenÕt ever heard or seen any ŅBig FootÓ while out and about for ten years of
wilderness courses and twenty years of solo canoe camping outings in the
B.W.C.A. and New Hampshire.
(I
grew up in an era in which women were taught to survive at least one week in
the woods each year for about a decade especially learn how to portage by
oneself. ItÕs not pretty. Even if someone offered me a trillion dollars I
wouldnÕt ever camp out in a tent much less travel by canoe.) Camping has its
charms, however. Not for me.
No,
I donÕt see ŅThe Grim Ripper.Ó
No,
I donÕt see ŅThe Dead.Ó
No,
I donÕt see the future.
No,
I donÕt believe in prophecies.
Yes,
IÕve read about many different types of prophecies.
No,
I donÕt hear any of my Ancient AncestorsÕ spirits speak to me.
No,
I donÕt ever hear voices.
No,
I donÕt ever see hallucinations.
No,
I donÕt celebrate ŅThe Day of the Dead.Ó
Yes,
only Mexicans celebrate ŅThe Day of the Dead.Ó
Yes,
only Mexicans have picnics on top of the tombs of their dead ancestors on ŅThe
Day of the Dead.Ó
No,
no other Latin American countries have picnics on top of the tombs of our dead
ancestors since no other Latin American countries celebrate ŅThe Day of the Dead.Ó
Yes,
IÕm dealing with thyroid temperature sensitivity.
Yes,
IÕm easily overheating.
All
I see is whatÕs in front of me, food to be cooked and life to be lived.
No,
I donÕt talk to myself.
Yes,
if IÕm ever heard talking while inside of my abode then itÕs only because IÕm
talking into my cell phoneÕs recording device and orally taking notes for
either blog ideas or writing ideas then one will hear Ņtesting one, two, three.
Test. Test. Record.Ó
Yes,
speaking directions to oneself is a higher form of IQ.

Gravity isÉ
As
of recently, gravity has been brought to my attention.
Personally,
IÕve been informed many Americans donÕt believe ŅgravityÓ exists.
Then
weÕd be flat as pancakes?
What
are we talking about?
Earth calling to outer space.
Outer
space, please respond.
Okay.
As
of recently, ŅAlpha, Beta and OmegaÓ have been brought to my attention.
Scientifically,
IÕve been informed scientists scientifically have proven away with ŅAlpha, Beta
or OmegaÓ social structures for which donÕt exist.
Then
each to their own? Yes.
As
of now, scientifically itÕs been proven thereÕs no such thing as ŅAlpha, Beta
and Omega.Ó Okay. Then this does prove each individualÕs out for themselves. Yes.
~~~
Ghosts
What
about ghosts?
As
a modern Maya IÕve been taught there ought not ever be any Ņghosts sightingsÓ or
Ņghosts lingeringÓ about otherwise such ghost souls are lost ghost souls
between this place and the next and mostly ghosts are angry to no longer be
alive thus such ghost souls go about Ņbumping in the nightÓ or knocking over objects
whenever the living donÕt pay any attention to angry ghosts since the dead are
dead and must remain with the dead.
As
a modern Maya IÕve been taught the spirits of our ancestors watch over us and
donÕt ever intervene in any of our lives.
As
a modern Maya IÕve been taught ghosts or the dead or ancestorsÕ spirits donÕt
ever intervene in our daily lives much less ever.
As
a modern Maya IÕve been taught there ought not ever be any encounters with any
types of spirits or the dead or angry ghosts here on Earth or ancestorsÕ
spirits or otherwise.
As
a modern Maya IÕve been taught itÕs bad to ever come across any encounters with
spirits of any type or the dead or angry ghosts or ancestorsÕ spirits or
otherwise unless oneÕs about to die.
~~~
Aliens
What
about Aliens?
Yes,
intellectually aliens do exist since the human race isnÕt as irrational as all
of it to be arrogant enough to think humans are the only intelligent life force
in the entire of all of the solar systems.
As
a modern Maya IÕve been taught itÕs bad to ever come across any encounters with
Aliens because most likely Aliens are carriers of high levels of radiation therefore
the Maya are to hypothetically go our own quiet separate ways and not interact
with any outer space Aliens if ever seen, per chance, otherwise the government
does need to get involved since most average citizens donÕt know anything about
aliens or what to do about radiation levels yet humans are intellectually
taught aliens do exist.
As
a modern Maya IÕve been taught IÕm of the human species.
If
any Aliens roam or live on Earth then I havenÕt ever seen any aliens or held
any types of encounters unless itÕs three or more Aliens otherwise any disguise
would be easy to scare humans into believing humans have seen anything humans havenÕt
seen.
Supposedly,
twenty-years ago Aliens stopped kidnapping and probing humans. I donÕt know.
Supposedly,
humans are a hybrid of Alien form and human form combined. I donÕt know.
Supposedly,
humans are the Aliens. I donÕt know.
Supposedly,
humans sprung from Aliens. I donÕt know.
Supposedly,
Aliens are gods. No.
Supposedly,
Aliens were Ancient Gods. I donÕt know.
Supposedly,
anything which passes any bowel movement isnÕt any type of god. Correct.
~~~
Fairies
What
about Fairies?
As
a modern Maya IÕve been taught Fairies donÕt exist in the Mayan mythological
storytelling.
Supposedly,
Fairies are of European descent.
Supposedly,
Fairies are extremely dangerous to humans.
Supposedly,
Fairies are a species of super ancient human who are able to hold certain
suggestive powers over modern humans. I donÕt know.
Supposedly,
any type of encounters with Fairies is supposed to be quite negative and could
end with a fatality to humans.
Supposedly,
Fairies are quite cunning.
Supposedly,
Fairies use humans.
Supposedly,
fairies are not at all on any level as humans and will manipulate humans to any
humanÕs demise.
Supposedly,
Fairies seem to come across as mean creatures since Fairies are extremely
selfish.
Supposedly,
Fairies donÕt care if humans get injured or hurt or die due to Fairy
irresponsibility.
Fairies
donÕt exist in my world.
~~~
Dog Headed Man
What
about Dog Headed Man?
As
a modern Maya IÕve been taught Dog Headed Man isnÕt part of the Mayan
mythological storytelling.
Dog
Headed Man is of Mexican mythological storytelling.
As
a modern Maya I havenÕt ever seen a Dog Headed Man, however.
Now,
if other humans have ever seen a ŅDog Headed ManÓ or ŅBig FootÓ or ŅFairiesÓ or
ŅSpiritsÓ then scientific proof is required.
Now,
I believe other people have indeed seen all aspects of variety of humanoid
looking figures and only others know what theyÕve seen, however. The eyes play
tricks on the memory.
~~~
Big Foot
What
about Big Foot?
As
a modern Maya IÕve been taught anything outside of the realm of human species
may exist, however, Maya donÕt ever go out of their way to go look for such
creatures or beings since such creatures or beings are physically much stronger
than humans and may have the potential to kill any humans therefore humans stay
away from the woods, especially caves.
As
a modern Maya not once and not ever have I either smelled or seen or heard a ŅBig
FootÓ after one complete decade of outdoor photography not once have I ever run
into much wildlife since wildlife tends to keep away from most humans unless
humans feed wildlife which humans ought to not ever feed any type of wildlife
unless or except for when.
Okay,
according to foot prints and foot casts and hair samples supposedly ŅBig FootÓ
exists. Okay, however, I havenÕt ever heard or seen or smelled a ŅBig FootÓ or
seen public records.
~~~
Shadow People
What
about Shadow People?
As
a modern scientific reader IÕve been scientifically taught many of the
sightings of ŅShadow PeopleÓ are either the eye playing tricks on the person or
hallucinations.
By
modern standards ŅShadow PeopleÓ sightings is mainly the eye playing tricks on
the individual since itÕs easy for human eyes to trick us into seeing shadows
and mostly the brain always reverts to seeing humanoid figures in the likes of
our species.
Personally,
I havenÕt seen any type of Shadow Person in my entire life.
~~~
Multiple Dimensions
What
about multiple dimensions?
Supposedly,
thereÕre multiple dimensions.
Intellectually,
IÕve been taught to believe in multiple dimensions, however. I havenÕt ever
travelled to any other multiple dimensions.
Recently,
IÕve begun to read blogs about death and the afterlife and about how death is
explained as another multiple dimension exactly like the times and era we live
in now. How disappointing.
As
a modern American IÕve been taught life after death is eternal sleep and
darkness. Thank goodness. I look forward to it when IÕm old and dead. A rest
from long life.
Supposedly,
multiple dimension life after death is more work and a paycheck. I hope not.
~~~
Chubakabra
What
about Chubakabras?
Again,
IÕd have to look up Chubakabras.
Personally,
I havenÕt ever seen a floating witch.
~~~
Floating Witches
What
about floating witches?
Personally,
I havenÕt ever seen a floating witch.
Personally,
IÕve been taught not to believe in witches.
Plum Island
What
about Plum Island?
Personally,
IÕve been taught to not ever wander off alone in Plum Island.
Plum
Island is known for the inter-breeding of different species of animals. I donÕt
know.
No,
I havenÕt ever come across different inter-breeding of different species of
animals.
However,
mutations IÕve come across in museums such as any species with two heads. I
walked away as quickly as possible.
~~~
Facts are Proof anything Exists
Mainly,
IÕm someone who hasnÕt ever seen much of anything other than living humans --
this doesnÕt mean I donÕt believe other people have or havenÕt experienced
extraordinary events in their lives.
At
the age of forty, IÕm only grateful not to have had any encounters with extra
terrestrial life form or floating witches or fairies or any otherwise.
Yours
Truly;
Gabriel

Nope,
writing isnÕt real life.
Writing
is records from subjective points of view.
A
Caste System?
Okay,
yes, I utilized the word ŅHick.Ó I had to go look up the word ŅHick.Ó Then I
had to go and ask if ŅHickÓ meant a Ņwoods-person?Ó People informed me ŅHickÓ
means a Ņswamp person.Ó Thank you. WhatÕs a ŅRedneck?Ó I donÕt exactly know.
IÕll research it.
No,
not once and not ever do I make the usage of the word ŅHickÓ or ŅRedneckÓ in
modern day usage of the language spoken out loud much less the ŅNÓ word or the
any other derogatory word.
As
of recently IÕm informed IÕm all too formal and must trust myself.
Personally,
I like to record sentiments and discriminations of the times we live in along
with difficult racial injustices such as public murders captured on citizensÕ cameras
for the entire world to witness police murders on the streets of America. Sigh.
Not because I say so, because it is so as a culture of police brutality. ItÕs
in the news. Please, go look it up.

industry. Have fun!

Yes,

A Police State is Wrong
(Yes, some of my best-friends are police)
Not because I say so.
General Sentimentalities
Of modern Americans of Color.
The Caste System.
Remember
police officers or cops are in the same occupational category as teachers and
nurses and get paid about thirty-thousand dollars per annual salary.
Remember
police officers and teachers and nurses are low-ranking professionals simply
because such jobs are the jobs nobody wants therefore the people who do such jobs
are people who are either inspired or have a calling to such horrific positions
or such people are people who are forced to become low-ranking professionals
simply because they lack the grades or funds or intellect to further education
or the opportunities to do something else other than the grueling work to clean
up urine and feces and blood or spend their days with snot-nosed children or
deal with serious aspects of life such as real crime such as rape and murder
which nobody in their right mind ever wants to deal with either rape or murder
even in the aftermath.
Remember
one is either mainly poor or uneducated or a little bit off in the brain or
without options to go into nursing or teaching or police work since all three jobs
deal with bodily functions and to deal with bodily function is work one does
when one has nothing else except low-reaching branch jobs.
Remember
police and nurses and teachers hold no power in society or culture since police
and nurses and teachers are usually followers and not thinkers or leaders
therefore by in large such positions arenÕt respected and in general people
find such occupations weird and the people who do them even creepier.
Remember
police and nurses and teachers are usually people who donÕt want to be respectable
baristas yet desire for some type of professional control over others therefore
most people in their right mind donÕt wish to be any of the three occupations mentioned
above unless one is poor or unsophisticated or uneducated and not fit to do
other types of more intelligent occupations other than to round up people and
force them to learn their ABCÕs or force people to aim into bedpans or force people
into submission through brute force.
Remember
police and nurses and teachers arenÕt quantum physicists and donÕt know any
better than anyone else.
Remember
police and nurses and teachers are less qualified workers and are mainly to
assist society rather than run culture or business.
Remember
most police officers canÕt afford their mortgages.
Remember
most police officers make the same amount of wages as respectable baristas who
are in an invaluable service such as to manage food and drink.
Remember
most police officers can barely afford the cost of living and are as
marginalized as any other low income earning workers therefore as angry and
frustrated as anyone else in the same boat.
Remember
police officers and nurses and teachers are low-ranking professionals mainly
because police donÕt have much training or critical thinking skills or ethics
training or psychological skills beyond the age of eighteen.
Remember
most people stop reasoning or intellectually developing beyond the age of
eighteen therefore most police or nurses or teachers are only qualified to be
slave handlers and not slave owners.
Remember
the history of police officers is to round up slaves and bring the slaves back
to the plantations to get whipped or raped or murdered.
Remember
history repeats itself.
Remember
police donÕt have any power other than what the taxpayers grant police officers
which there ought not to be any power granted to police other than to deal with
the aftermath of real crime such as rape and murder.
Remember
mostly police officers are people who failed at other means of profession
therefore they went into the police academies for lack of ability to accomplish
other more intellectually rigorous endeavors such as running their own
companies or businesses or being doctors or lawyers or judges.
Remember
most police officers arenÕt intellectually equipped to keep copious notes much
less write a full paragraph or full page reports.
How
do I know? IÕve read about eight hundred police written reports and if one
doesnÕt write well then one doesnÕt reason well much less logically and most
police officers can barely stitch one well constructively written sentence
therefore their lack of intelligence shows all over their written words. The
reason why police donÕt keep great written records or notes is because they
lack the ability to think beyond brutality and their brute nature shows all
over their writing.
Remember
most police officers have High School diplomas and six months of police academy
and not much else to go on therefore police officers see themselves as special
when mostly police are average intelligence without any critical thinking bragging
rights.
Remember
most police officers havenÕt ever gone to a private or public four year college
or university therefore most police officers wheel power through racism and brute
and sheer force rather than logic and reason.
~~~
Remember
the psychological research has come out in which most police officers are
terrified to go into seemingly dangerous situations therefore most police
officers deal with important and drastic situations from a place of fear and
adrenaline and high levels of testosterone rather than logic or reason.
Remember
most police officers are scared and frightened people.
Remember
police officers are literally frightened workers therefore theyÕre bound to
make a thousand more mistakes than any other workers in other fields.
Remember
police officers must be some type of control freaks since they have very little
power elsewhere in culture or society since theyÕre regular people like the
rest of us and only special to their mothers.
Remember
police officers take physical liberties with people because they believe no one
will ever catch them being unprofessional or unreasonable or out of line or
dangerous or criminal.
Remember
most police officers are considered a joke because all police officers do is
round up slaves and incarcerate people of color for minor offenses rather than
deal with real crime such as rape and murder.
Remember
most Caucasian police officers arenÕt humane to women or people of color
therefore police misconstrue service with arrogant make-believe power which the
law is power not brute force or fear or covered up criminal acts behind any
uniform.
Remember
most police officers seem to think they have the right to mishandle citizens
and to murder people because theyÕre ignorantly arrogant and frightened little
children with personal egotistical issues.
Remember
most police officers arenÕt doctors of any variety.
Remember
most police officers are people who decided to serve and protect their
communities rather than enslave or incarcerate large numbers of people of color
yet most police officers must get off on the power to submit others into a powerless
state because police officers have to meet monthly quotas and show very poor
communications skills.
Remember
most police officers hold no power other than make--believe power.
Remember
most police officers are behind the times and can barely keep up with cyber
crime or real crime such as rape and murder and sex-trafficking.
Remember
most police officers arenÕt liked people even by their peers since they have a
sense of superiority and physical brute force and a criminal make-up to them.
Remember
police officers have higher statistics for domestic violence.
Remember
not to ever trust police since theyÕre mainly teenagers who didnÕt ever mature
or develop beyond the age of eighteen.
~~~
Remember
police officers are known for groping and sexually assaulting female victims.
Remember
police officers arenÕt necessarily needed in society to run a productive and
well constructed culture.
Remember
each individual city/state can do away with police officers at any time and
itÕs not a bad idea to have citizens run themselves rather than have the police
be involved other than with real crime such as rape and murder.
Remember
police officers arenÕt ever to be trusted since mostly police officers are ŅHicksÓ
or racists or backwoods and into the mentality of slavery and control rather
than freedom.
Remember
one isnÕt required to approach police even if the police demand someone talks
to them yet itÕs best to deal with police officers since we live in an era of
enslavement and plantations and slave owners. ItÕs best to deescalate any
situation since police officers donÕt know how to.
Remember
police treat citizens as though the police were slave owners and murder our
people in the streets like runaway slaves.
Remember
police is as much pedophiles and rapists and murderers as any other criminal.
Remember
police are people who couldnÕt get ahead in life therefore they became police.
Remember
thereÕs a war on police crime.
Yours
Truly;
Gabriel

Blog
Notes:
In
an era in which independent blogs and writersÕ colonies are being shutdown
primarily due to finances or lack thereof the one aspect for which must be made
clear is this: this blog has not once seen much less received one single penny
for any of its practice work.
This
blog has been financed by me.
In
the past this blog had promissory investors yet not once and not ever has this
blog been financed by anyone other than a small team of people whoÕve dedicated
their time and effort to the achievement of creative writing and independent
thought.
Up
to this point mostly anything has been done Ņout of pocketÓ in hopes to collect
a sum of money from former investors after the work was supposed to be
completed.
ThereÕre
no investors here now. All of the investors have been paid off. ThereÕs no
investor debt. Now, thereÕre profits which remains yet to be seen from all of
this practice writing no matter what the subject matter.
~~~
This
writing belongs to me.
This
is the work and effort of one human.
People
tell me the reason why none of my work makes any money is because thereÕs a
lack of marketing.
People
tell me the reason why none of my documentaries ever made any money is because
there was a lack of marketing.
People
tell me I have a developed talent which is writing and IÕm lucky to be a writer
because at any point I might get an agent who will pay me to write and IÕm
always steps closer than most other people to have the ability to make a
fortune.
People
tell me I ought to get an agent and have a good agent pay me to write.
Intellectually I know the steps to how to get an agent, however. I donÕt know
how to get an agent for myself in the same manner in which I donÕt know how to
make money for myself yet I know how to make money for others.
People
tell me I belong writing a weekly newspaper column.
~~~
Yes,
throughout the past eleven years IÕve known what itÕs like to do contract work
and get paid anywhere in the upwards of fifty-thousand, however.
Anytime,
anyone makes anymore than ten-thousand dollars then one must cut the paycheck
in half and half goes towards taxes and the rest of the money goes towards
bills and debt and house projects which arenÕt cheap.
Yes,
thereÕve been lump sums of money, however. Money goes fast. Not once have I
kept the payout and gone on a five-thousand dollar shopping spree or bought a
new car for myself.
Much
of what has been done with the money has been donated or gifted to families
less fortunate and in need of help with rent and bills which people have
informed me they donÕt want their bills paid they want jobs.

is uninteresting, tedious, dull, dreary, mind-numbing, tiresome, lackluster,

Personally,
I treat others with respect.
Personally,
to a fault I go out of my way to be kind to others.
No,

Personally,
as a woman of color IÕm grateful I now know what itÕs like to be completely
controlled and not to ever again raise my voice no matter how little I get
heard when I tell my truth and say, ŅNo, thank you.Ó
Personally,
IÕm now the broken spirit of a horse therefore I walk on egg shells and am getting
over being terrified of a police state and modern pharmaceutical psychiatry and
scary Caucasian people and physically violent black people.
Personally,
IÕm grateful I donÕt live with uterine tumors therefore IÕm no longer in pain
and crabby or ready to pick verbal fights with physical violence since most of
my character is a quiet one and terrified of being murdered or killed by out-of-control
cops or creepy pharmaceuticals yet I control my fears and donÕt let my fears
get the better of me.
Personally,
IÕm grateful not to be detained since IÕm a woman of color and for the most
part skittish of any type of violence which mostly violence has to be addressed
except IÕve now learned to walk away from violence, however. One must not ever
walk away from cops because cops hold unjustifiable amount of unnecessary power
and can make wrong decisions at anytime.
Personally,
IÕm glad to be getting over the fear of living in Minnesota and in the United
States.
Personally,
IÕm grateful not to run away from my life.
Personally,
I donÕt think about moving to Costa Rica since the real power and independence
is here in America and quietly must be taken back from a control state of mind.
Personally,
IÕm grateful not to be a control freak.
Personally,
IÕm grateful not to submit others to my power.
Personally,
IÕm glad IÕm not greedy.

ItÕs Modern to Write
And over Share
Especially over Social Media
And other online Mass Media
Yes,
over social media women write about spousal verbal fights and peer comments
attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about their sexual preferences and peer comments
attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about their custody battles and peer comments
attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about their divorces and peer comments attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about their marriages and peer comments attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about all types of personal illnesses and such
with photographs attached and peer comments attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about their personal surgical operations with
photos attached and peer commentary attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about sexual harassment and peer comments
attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about sexual assault and peer comments attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about how many times women have sex and peer
comments attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about womenÕs favorite sexual positions and peer comments
attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about their menstruations and peer comments
attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about their genitalia and peer comments attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about breast feeding and peer comments attached.
Yes,
over social media women write about pregnancy and peer comments attached.
Yes,
modern times dictate women write and over share, however much or little.
The
modern culture of women is one of online over sharing since social media is
relatively new and women tend to communicate as in Ņcave timesÓ by putting time
into writing and over sharing inside the safety of their warm glow of social
media accounts with photos attached and peer commentary attached about womenÕs daily
lives as life unfolds, good or bad.
~~~
Over sharing isÉ
No, I donÕt write about enemies
I write about what IÕm most passionate about
Television
is like Ņcave menÕsÓ fire. (Simile.)
Social
media is like Ņcave times.Ó (Not even the president knows when to stop over sharing
over Twitter.)
Blogs
are informational stories with a beginning, middle and end to learn how not to make the same mistakes ever again.
Writing
is reflection to become wise.
Blogs
are journals from the first person narrative and hopefully without personal
photos in the hospital or peer comments since some surgeries are personal in
nature and donÕt require peer commentary.
Personally,
I donÕt think I over share in the same way social media does with personal
photos or peer comments therefore I shanÕt ever again write about our marriage.
~~~
People donÕt write out of cruelty
People write to record
People write to better get to know themselves
And the world around
People write with their critical thinking caps
And recollect to the best of their ability
Personally,
in my defense I havenÕt ever and not once shared what sexual positions we
preferred since itÕs nobodyÕs business.
Personally,
in my defense I havenÕt ever described our nude bodies. No, not once.
Personally,
in my defense I havenÕt ever blamed others for processing through lifeÕs
difficult events.
Personally,
in my defense I genuinely write to learn wisdom.
Personally,
in my defense I prolifically write with noteworthy and difficult lessons to
learn how to be a better human and how to overcome adversity or difficulties in
miscommunication without judging others for more room to grow.
Personally,
in my defense I donÕt see our marriage as something vicious to write about. No.
Personally,
in my defense as of today my partner was my Ņmuse.Ó
Personally,
in my defense I write with the intent to learn and move forward and leave
personal records behind to better understand the complexities of relationships
well into the second decade of the twenty-first century.
Feasibly
at anytime anyone can choose to get any social media account and write personally
although I think writing a personal blog on social media would definitely be
awkward and weird and strange to get peer comments back about oneÕs own
personal life and photographs.
From
now on weÕll write about socks and the weather and news and whatever else.
Let
the record show: I write without malice only the intent to learn to grow and mature
and change into a better person. Always. Reflect. However, live in the present.
The past is gone and we donÕt ever know what the future holds.
Let
the record show: Yes, my married partner is an amazing human like any other
human with more room for growth like myself.
Truly
Yours,
Gabriel

What
is there for me to say about DACA? Nothing.
2018
Congressional policy: Grant citizenship to any American-born immigrant within
the last 100 years who happened to be born upon American soil and their
immigrant parents and immigrant family members such as siblings because itÕs
the humane and smart thing to do for modern America.
Still
immigrants are choosing not to come to the United States.
--- --- ---
No,
I donÕt personally hold any bad feelings or negative emotions towards Mexicans
or Mexican-Americans not even some social misconduct. I can overlook social
misconduct. I can get over social misconduct since humans arenÕt perfect.
In
my twenty year social advocacy IÕve stood for the ŅBerlin Wall IIÓ to come down
between the borders of Mexico and the United States.
In
my twenty year social advocacy IÕve stood for more trading between both Mexico
and the United States without losing the character and appeal for the authentic
Mexican culture.
The
Mexicans are our neighbors and must be treated well with respect.
--- --- ---
What is there for me to say about DACA?
Nothing.
Okay
this: Immigrants are the historical back bone of America.
From the very little I know for which IÕve
been legally taught: Any born American upon American soil is automatically
an American citizen.
Furthermore,
at the age of twenty-one years of life any born American citizen upon American
soil is able and eligible to grant citizenship to their foreign national born
parents. Yes.
(Yes,
the above spacing is correct.)
--- --- ---
ThereÕs
no reason whatsoever to deport our respectful American neighbors and friends
and colleagues with distinct accents.
No,
I donÕt personally hold any bad feelings or negative emotions towards any
African nations or anyone else for such matters otherwise life gets too
stressful and stress causes illness in the body.
No,
Americans in general donÕt hold any bad feelings or negative emotions against
other nations or anyone else for such matters otherwise life gets too stressful
and stress causes illness in the body.
Middle
Income Earning American families do the best to provide for their lot in life
with the rise in cost of living and low paying wages for the year 2018.
Americans
respect other sovereign nations even if presidents donÕt respect or different
White House Administrations disrespect other sovereign nations.
If
anything, here in the United States of America, Americans deal and contend with
lack of trust between races and racial divides which is unimportant to be
against humans as a species when pigmentation is a moot point.

No,
IÕm not a liar. No, I donÕt go around telling lies.
Yes,
the best policy is to always tell the truth.
No,
IÕm not a thief.
No,
I havenÕt ever stolen anything from any store because as luck would have it I
would get extremely nervous and get caught. I only shop with the money I have
or I donÕt shop at all.
Yes,
I window shop for ideas.
Americans
tend to believe it is best not to talk about anything and omit information
unless directly asked. If others donÕt know what questions to ask then nothing
gets said and the truth lingers somewhere out there in nether space.
Yes,
the few and selfdom times IÕve told any type of lies the reason why I did it
was to help out the reputation of others.
Once
I told a lie to do psychological warfare with the physically violent neighbors
in summer 2016. ItÕs all over now.
The
neighbors and I are peaceful. We go our separate ways even when we run into
each other at the grocery store.
No,
IÕm not a ninja.
No,
I donÕt know how to break into other peopleÕs houses.
No,
I havenÕt ever broken into anyone elseÕs home.
No,
I donÕt go to peopleÕs houses and re-arrange their dishes or cookware while
they sleep.
Goodness,
I would probably begin to cry if I ever broke into anyoneÕs home.
Yes,
the only times IÕve ever peacefully gone into other peopleÕs houses is when
IÕve been invited.
No,
I donÕt have any special powers.
No,
IÕm not a super hero.
My
special power would probably be eating pastries or baked goods.
No,
I donÕt go around urinating outdoors.
Yes,
itÕs been Minnesota Caucasian women who have told me and taught me about
urinating outdoors when one goes camping to keep wild wolves and moose away.
No, I havenÕt actually done it.
Yes,
itÕs been American Caucasian women who have told me and taught me about
menstruating outdoors when one goes to do research to attract something known
as Ņbig foot.Ó No, I havenÕt actually done it.

Happiness
Personally,
IÕve been informed ŅhappinessÓ is keeping what one already has.
What
is happiness?
Since
happiness isnÕt something we measure exactly or see or touch or concretely
place or define then what is happiness?
Personally,
IÕve been taught happiness is contentment (satisfaction, pleasure,
gratification, ease.)
Yes,
IÕm happy which happiness is subjective.
Throughout
my life most garbage cans filled with smells of onion makes me unhappy
therefore I make an unhappy face and take the garbage bag directly to the
outdoorÕs waste bin and overall IÕm not unhappy with life.

my life bumping into furniture has made me unhappy and IÕve winced therefore IÕve
rearranged furniture out of the way even if the furniture doesnÕt look
aesthetically pleasing and overall IÕm not unhappy with life.
Throughout
my life getting a sliver has made me unhappy and IÕve made an unhappy face therefore
IÕve gone in search of a sterile needle and driven the sliver out and overall
IÕm not unhappy with life.

my life while pumping gas and by mistake IÕve gotten gas on my clothes or winter
gloves has made me unhappy and IÕve made an unhappy face therefore IÕve gone
and washed my hands and clothes and changed and overall IÕm not unhappy with

my life while chocking on small pieces of nuts I have become rather unhappy and
harshly coughed and spit out the pieces lodged in my throat and overall IÕm not
unhappy with life.

my life watching large amounts of television has made me unhappy and at times I
have fallen asleep in front of the television with a content look on my face
and happy to be there therefore IÕve gone to bed and read and overall IÕm not
unhappy with life.
Throughout
my life IÕve disliked getting soap in my eyes and the soap in my eyes has made
me unhappy and IÕve made an unhappy face therefore IÕve gone and washed out the
soap and overall IÕm not unhappy with life.
Throughout
my life I havenÕt liked it when IÕve gained some holiday weight and havenÕt
been able to fit into my clothes therefore IÕve become rather unhappy and made
many unhappy faces into the mirror then IÕve bought pants a size up until I can
fit back into my regular size and overall IÕm not unhappy with life.
Throughout
my life I havenÕt liked being told how to spend my free time because Ņall work and
no playÓ makes any person dull and IÕve been unhappy therefore IÕve made an
unhappy face while being told I have to go someplace I might not be comfortable
yet obligated to show up and make an appearance therefore IÕve stayed home and
relaxed whenever thereÕs been down time since most of life is mainly work and
overall IÕm not unhappy with life.
Throughout
my life and by mistake whenever IÕve come across pornography then IÕve become
rather unhappy and made a quiet shrieking sound to see othersÕ genitals therefore
IÕve changed the channel and overall IÕm not unhappy with life.
Throughout
my life I havenÕt liked being personally sworn at because personally being
sworn at makes me unhappy then IÕve made an unhappy face therefore IÕve left the
room and overall IÕm not unhappy with life.
Throughout
my life the pressure to socially perform has made me unhappy therefore IÕve
refused to socially perform and kept quiet and overall IÕm not unhappy with
life.
Throughout
my life the pressure to constantly and continuously clean up after others
without pay has made me unhappy and IÕve made many unhappy faces therefore IÕve
learned to do the minimal effort without exerting myself to an exhaustive place
and overall IÕm not unhappy with life.
Throughout
my life sweets have given me a great deal of pain in some of my teeth and
become unhappy therefore IÕve gone years without sugar or sweets and overall
IÕm not unhappy with life.
Throughout
my life ice in cold water has made my teeth hurt and IÕve become unhappy
therefore I stopped placing ice cubes into my water and overall IÕm not unhappy
with life.
Throughout
my life the few and seldom times I havenÕt liked being intoxicated and IÕve
been quite unhappy being intoxicated therefore I donÕt drink much beer or
alcohol since more than one alcoholic drink per day increases the chances of
cancer in both men and women therefore I seldom drink much less get drunk and
overall IÕm not unhappy with life.
Throughout
my life IÕve stubbed my toe on the bedposts and have become rather unhappy and
made many unhappy faces therefore IÕve placed socks on the bedposts therefore my
toes wonÕt hurt and overall IÕm not unhappy with life.
Throughout
my life IÕve had three teeth chip and this made me rather unhappy and IÕve made
many unhappy faces therefore I went to the dentist and overall IÕm not unhappy
with life.
Throughout
my life Caucasian people have talked about subject matter which isnÕt proper to
speak about with other people of color therefore IÕve become rather unhappy
about how different racial groups openly talk about menstruation while itÕs not
kosher to talk about menstruation with anyone yet Caucasians do therefore IÕve
learned to stay away from certain subject matter all together and all
completely and overall IÕm not unhappy with life.
Throughout
my life IÕve learned different social rules apply to different racial groups
and itÕs made me unhappy therefore I must learn to speak to certain groups a
certain way and others another way and overall IÕm not unhappy with life.
Throughout
my life racial struggle is real and itÕs made me unhappy and IÕve made many
unhappy faces therefore IÕve learned to write rather than to talk about racism
and overall IÕm not unhappy with life.
Throughout
life many of the mentioned above have continuously occurred and none of it
means IÕm overall unhappy with life.
Happiness
is the perspective to overcome big obstacles and not sweat the small stuff.
Truly
Yours,
Gabriel

Hello. Hi.

No, I havenÕt literally or physically choreographed modern ballet since August 2017.
Yes, I now write-down dance steps.
Yes, IÕm a terrible dancer. I resign to the fact IÕm a bad dancer.
Yes, I canÕt help to choreograph modern ballet Ņin my mindÕs eyeÓ since I did at one point take nine years of ballet and modern dance from professors and masters with doctorates in ballet.
No, IÕm not a modern dancer.
No, I donÕt ever want to dance up on stage.
No, IÕm not a ballet dancer.
No, IÕm not a choreographer.
Simply, bits and pieces of choreography inspire me even though IÕm more like a human pretzel with two left feet than a dancer.
Whenever IÕve been presented with a space large enough to move in then IÕve tried out different choreography moves and launched myself off of walls with my hands to see if I could do it then other dancers could do ten times better than I could with the steps called for in the complexity of the choreography.
Yes, the piece of modern ballet choreography IÕm writing is done for no other reason than this composition came to me as a whole and complete piece about ballerinas and track-and-field apparatuses and a combination of running and dance.
Of course, my choreography as with my animation is crude and unrefined and terrible yet some of the ideas arenÕt bad.

Cultural Literary Notes:
Personally,
as of recently IÕve been informed IÕm not ŅshallowÓ even though IÕve described
myself as Ņshallow.Ó English as a Second Language. IÕve been informed IÕm quite
empathetic. I can truly see life from other peopleÕs perspectives. Not because
I say, because others tell me.
Personally,
as of recently IÕve been informed IÕm, too, nice. I must learn to be less kind
and more selfish and confident and not be scared or afraid of anyone or
anything.
Personally,
IÕve been informed I make a terrible liar and must learn not to ever tell the truth
unless people ask for advice and even then itÕs best policy to not ever tell
the truth therefore its best not to ask for advice except from close or
personal friends and even then itÕs best not to ask for advice at all and make
up oneÕs own mind about oneÕs own life and life choices and decisions.
Personally,
IÕve been taught its best not to ever talk badly about oneÕs spouse to other personal
close friends or family members otherwise the spouse badly talked about gets
mistreated outside of the marriage by others who arenÕt in the marriage.
The
only reason why the badly talked about spouse gets treated badly is when the
other spouse directly speaks badly about their spouse to others. Not because I
say, because others tell me.
A
marriage is between two people only until the laws change and most likely
polygamy may someday be the standard. Most likely not, however.
Anything
is fodder for subject matter to write about.
No
names mentioned then thereÕs nothing to worry about.
Freedom
of speech is free.
Freedom
of speech is the right to say or write or express anything from oneÕs own point
of view without the penalty of contempt or chastisement or belittlement or
degradation or censorship.
A
journal is to record the vitally important and complex intricacies of humanity
especially the oneÕs least talked about when it comes to imbalance of power in
relationships.
Some
day weÕll be old and eventually dead and the only thing for which will matter
is the records we leave behind about how we best lived out our lives and did
well by others especially the people whom we love most are the people we treat
badly according to American culture.
The
most difficult subject matter to write about is about oneÕs own life because
itÕs personal.
ItÕs
difficult to get the courage to write about oneÕs own personal life for the benefit
of others who will come down the road in the long distant future.
Any
subject matter can be written about mainly to record something important and of
substance in relationship to love.
Love
is hate.
Hate
is love.
Writing
is about recording truth rather than lies.
Writing
is after the fact.
Writing
is after the events.
Writing
is after action has taken place.
Writing
is done when people write about what they know best.
ŅWrite
what you know.Ó
What
else is there to do other than to write about what one knows?
Otherwise
journals would be fantasy rather than stories told or statements made or
actions recorded down on record from life.
Personally,
I find journaling extremely difficult to do since most Americans donÕt seem to
make the clear distinction or tell the difference between life and art or life
and television.
Writing
isnÕt only one perspective.
ThereÕre
multiple of perspectives to one subject matter.
In
other words: one subject matter can be written about in multiple of infinite
ways and none would be wrong.
Memory
is after the fact.
Memories
are thoughts about past events.
From
what IÕve been taught: No one sees any one event in the same way or manner or
form as any other witness.
1,000
people can all observe and see and go through the same event and perceive it
totally and completely differently than any other person present.
ThereÕs
no reality about perception except what individuals may witness or observes or
hears or knows to be any of many different ways otherwise thereÕs no one way or
manner of truth only perspective.
In
other words thereÕs no right or wrong to how to recount events in subject
matter as to how events happened or how events occurred and were observed as
long as the witness recounts as closely as they understood the events to unfold
and words precisely conveyed.
Personally,
I donÕt write this because I need permission to write. No.
Mainly,
I write this because these are the rules I was taught in literary workshops
otherwise if one becomes afraid of censorship of any type then we move
backwards and not forward with decency and respect and calm approach to
storytelling.
If
one takes anything personally then one takes it personally and itÕs up to the
individual to sort themselves out.
If
anyone ever made me their muse and wrote Ņthe good, the bad and the uglyÓ I
would be absolutely tickled pink to go down in the history books without making
any effort or take the time to actually have to do the work to write.
Yes,
anybody can write, however.
Not
anyone can write well.
Much
less can anyone write for the larger picture between the three spans of time:
past which no longer exists, present for which is and future for which is still
yet to become the past.
No,
IÕm not my writings.
No,
IÕm not my former documentary films.
No,
IÕm not my photographs.
No,
IÕm not made up of words. IÕm made up of flesh and bone.
These
words will stand still while far more complex life will move on and forward and
eventually become something all together different in shape and form and size
other than letters.
No,
IÕm not unhappy with life and people in it.
Yes,
IÕve been scared and afraid for my physical freedom.
As
of yesterday, I was informed words are only words and most threats arenÕt real
and thereÕs no reason to be scared or afraid about anything or anyone since I
hold a free will and power to be human. Okay.
No,
I donÕt write out of malice.
Yes,
I write to better understand life after the fact.
Yes,
I write and dance as though no oneÕs watching.
Truly
Yours,
Gabriel

Writing
About
Marriage
is
an important
freedom of speech
A journal isnÕt a sitcom
A journal is from the first person narrative
Personally,
I write about marriage, good or bad, since I believe women hold very little
power in relationship to men.
Over
online journals and blog entries women must make it known women are physically
the lesser between the two sexes yet not intellectually or creatively different
from men.
Social
media is for sharing pictures and respectfully stating modern social commentary
about the world in general to sharing about current events.
Any
woman can be as smart as any man.
Any
woman can be as intelligent as any man.
Personally,
IÕm not a ŅjerkÓ since I donÕt make up the rules and tax the life out of the
serfs.
No,
IÕve not ever written here with the intention to tell anyone how to live their
lives. IÕve stated since 2010 each day I must figure out my own life and others
must figure out their own lives.
No,
I donÕt need or want anyone to follow any of my commands since IÕve not made
any commands to think like me or be like me or act like me. No.
No,
I donÕt think IÕm high and mighty.
Yes,
itÕs okay to interrupt me at anytime.
Yes,
itÕs okay to disagree with my opinion.
No,
itÕs not okay to tell me how to spend my free time and where and with whom.
Personally,
I donÕt sell anything here in this blog space therefore the literary writings
are of vitally important content and context which Americans tell me most media
is greed and marketing and advertisement lies. Yep. Yes. Ha.
Commercials
are my favorite short films.
Men
hold all of the money, power and control and resources.
Most
men make all of the decisions whether men are agreed with or not.
The
imbalance of power is ridiculous for 2018.
Why
do relationships have to be mainly about one spouse in general making all of
the decisions?
How
do couples in general hardly ever get to a point in which couples are able to
compromise on lifestyle?
If
all one spouse in general wants to do is watch television per se as an example and
the other spouse doesnÕt then why is the other spouse who doesnÕt want to spend
their entire free time watching television penalized like itÕs a character
flaw?
If
one spouse in general doesnÕt want to go to Disney World to vacation there per
se as an example because Disney World is the place where one spouse had a
miscarriage then why is one spouse penalized like itÕs a character flaw?
Competition
is for sports.
If
one spouse in general only wants to eat fast food and the other spouse doesnÕt
per se as an example then why is one spouse penalized like itÕs a character
flaw?
How
do women make ŅniceÓ when constantly women must be willing to give away their
entire free time to the other spouse yet when women fall asleep in front of the
television then the female spouse is considered unsupportive?
How
is falling asleep in front of the television unsupportive?
ThereÕs
a warm and lovely body right there willing to spend their free time in front of
the television.
Yes,
I appreciate common experiences, however. Television is television.
Actions
speak louder than words.
How
do women make ŅniceÓ when most of the power in any relationship goes towards
supporting men in any relationship, his hobbies and his friendships and family
yet the woman must give up her friends and her family-time because thereÕs no
money left over for her endeavors?
How
do men and women bridge the great divide of ego?
Why
does the ego get in the way of relationships?
Are
women worth anything? Yes, absolutely.
Are
women worth anything to men? Yes, absolutely.
Yes,
every human has worth the moment theyÕre born.

A History of Slavery
ItÕs
the Muslims whoÕve taught me the wife is always hated by the in-laws. Oh, okay.
I didnÕt know the rules to hatred.
ItÕs
the Muslims whoÕve taught me according to the in-laws the wife will always be minimized
and belittled and controlled because all the in-laws care about is their men.
Oh, okay. I didnÕt know.
For
some reason wives are automatically hated for getting married into the in-laws
therefore women are made to suffer a great deal of disempowerment and loss of
control by being marginalized or contempt.
According
to the Somali culture women are worth more than men. I agree. Women make life.
Men make things.
According
to the United StatesÕ culture women are worthless. Not.
Personally,
I believe our American history of enslavement has much to do with how Americans
presently think about power structures and control.
Personally,
I find most Caucasians get all of the say and power in how culture is
conducted.
If
any woman of color greatly disagrees with Caucasian people then automatically
the woman of color is considered ŅinsaneÓ for not wanting to constantly appease
Caucasians in their opinions about how to operate the entire world.
Mainly
women of color are greatly disliked by Caucasians in general therefore all any
woman can do is to keep quiet and to herself.
Except
Caucasians in general tend to believe any ŅquietÓ woman means she will conceded
and give up on oneÕs convictions or opinions or ideas when women of color are
quiet.
When
women of color stay quiet then the racial issues of disempowerment donÕt seem
to exist for Caucasians in general yet if any woman of color speaks up (at any
length) to peacefully be allowed to stand on her little bit of Earth and speak
her truth then women of color are automatically deemed traitors for disagreeing
with the powers that be which is mainly Caucasian rule.
Yes,
men take top earning.
Women
work for slightly above minimum wage.
Personally,
throughout much of my mature adulthood most Caucasians older than me tend to
only like me much more whenever IÕm quiet and bend to their way or will or
point of view.
If
I donÕt bend to any type of Caucasian point of view then automatically IÕm
disrespected or an issue is made out of my difference in opinion.
For
the most part I present issues with well constructed arguments and am as
respectful as I can be to hear out and listen and understand the otherÕs point
of view.
Personally,
IÕd like it if at anytime I said, ŅNo, thank youÓ then it would be left at that
and I would be respected for simply verbalizing not wanting to place myself in
situations in which IÕll be belittled or disrespected or marginalized by any
one much less the people I show respect.
Being
a modern woman of color comes with a lot of rules about how women of color must
assimilate to Caucasian culture in general still yet my color makes me a token
of interest or a badge of honor for Caucasian culture in general to pet
themselves on the back and tell me IÕm great to have around since I meet racial
quotas.
Imagine
people thought of as quotas? Weird. Right? Yes.
Personally,
I donÕt hate anyone. Nope.
Personally,
IÕve been told IÕm anything except shallow. IÕm simplistic and can see the
larger picture and take things Ņwith a grain of salt.Ó
My
greatest struggle in America is having my own point of view about how to spend
my free time yet itÕs a point of contention with Caucasian people in my life
yet itÕs Caucasians in the Midwest whoÕve taught me people donÕt ever visit
each other or much less invite anyone over to dinner or at any time for any
reason.
If
I donÕt invite people over then people donÕt come over and itÕs modern and
civil to do as it is.
In
modern culture one goes out to eat rather than go to other peopleÕs houses to
eat.
If
I invite people over then the work is on me. I spent a decade hosting. I donÕt
have any interest to host dinner parties in person. Dinner parties take much,
too, much time, resources and energy.
Modern
culture dictates jeans and t-shirts and sweaters for a new modern age of
business.
Modern
culture dictates business deals over food or drink rather than the golf course.
(Whew. IÕm a terrible golfer.)
Personally,
I donÕt go around ŅcoiningÓ phrases or making up new words or making up rules
to anything since IÕm one single voice of a citizen.
Within
the recent year I did invite guests over to dinner and they attended, however,
for the most part people constantly cancel when invited over to anyoneÕs abode because
modern culture doesnÕt much like to go to other peopleÕs houses and rather stay
home and relax. I donÕt like to go over to other peopleÕs houses since modern
culture has ingrained into me the idea about how modern culture no longer
visits in the way in which the Greatest Depression Generation and era did.
Okay. I go with the tide. I might be forty, however. IÕm not dead. I can keep
up.
The
Jews have taught me itÕs best to stay at home without the stress of
belittlement or disrespect or contempt from others than to go out and be
terribly badly treated by people who are supposed to be the most respectful,
Americans.
In
America women are taught to hate women.
In
America men are taught to undermine or compete against men.
Competition
is for sore losers.
Work
is a group dynamic.
One
of the most difficult aspects of America is how to be of any dark color
pigmentation yet speak white and act white and be white without the light skin
tone in pigmentation.

By modern standards:
Psychology is a new science
Since the early 1900Õs
Psychology has much still yet to learn and prove
Psychology is only 100 years old
Some sciences are thousands of years old
By modern standards:

and ancient mythologies)
(Yes, IÕve studied philosophy)
When
will women of color hold the same amount of power as Caucasian women in
general?
When
will women of color hold the same respect as Caucasian women in general?
When
will women of color have the same say as Caucasian women in general especially
when it comes to women of color and their say as to how to best spend their
free time at home sleeping or relaxing when itÕs down time?
When
will women of color be seen as human who happen upon faux pas and social
cultural mistakes made by the input by other Caucasians?
Why
is it when a woman of color makes a faux pas or social cultural mistake then
she looks ridiculous or silly even though women of color take suggestions from
the Caucasian rule book and advice from Caucasians?
When
will women of color be completely assimilated into Caucasian culture and be
considered equals?
When
will women of color be considered beautiful?
When
will women of color be considered?
When
will women of color be equals to men?
Not
once have I ever considered getting paid the same wages as men much less
Caucasian men since I know what women of color are perceived as: inferior and
how will this change?
No,
IÕm not inferior to anyone much less at the age of 40.
Less
money for the same amount of work as men is quietly put in a subtle way in
which oneÕs inferior to the other male counterparts.
When
will dusty and antiquated eighteen-eighty-three (1883) societal structures fall
away and Americans enter this new modern era of the second decade of the twenty-first
century in the year 2018?
The
twenty-first century came in screaming and kicking like a newborn not wanting
to take in their first big gulp of breath of life and stinking mad about not
being allowed back into the warm and safe womb of the mother.
What
happened to racism within the first two decades of the twenty-first century?
Nothing.
What
happened to chauvinism within the first two decades of the twenty-first
century? Nothing.
What
happened to unfair wages within the first two decades of the twenty-first
century? Nothing.
What
happened to the power of balance within the twenty-first century? Nothing.
Will
there ever be racial equality and equal pay by the end of my life-expectancy at
the age of 68 as an Indigenous woman? Maybe.
Truly

Adultery
Yes,
as of the end of May of 2017 after acquiring a key and actively went to look
for my passport and through old records and finally for the first time I literally
sat down to read the divorce settlement papers from the first sixteen year
marriage I realized weÕd been adulterers since November 2006 through August
2007.
Oh
My Gosh and at the time I was a twenty-eight year old and Roman Catholic and
believed in a literal hell.
Married
men are off limits.
Married
men are nonnegotiable for dating women ten years younger than the women
especially when the women are in their twenties.
How
could such vital information have gone by me?
My
problem is IÕm na•ve even though IÕve once again matured by leaps and bounds
within the past five months and am actually an astute and well behaved and well
socialized forty year old and smiling when appropriately or not smiling at all.
IÕm extremely well socially conditioned and adjusted (others tell me I am) and weekly
drink tea with the neighbors and socialized for decades.
As
of yesterday people told me IÕm too nice and I tend to think most people are
nice also when most people arenÕt nice or kind.
On
November of 2006 after verbally informing my roommate I was dating a man a
decade my senior and separated in his first marriage yet still living with his first
wife in the same house and mutually fallen out of love for five years then all
hell broke loose and my roommate told me to Ņwake up and smell the rosesÓ since
we were technically committing adultery. She couldnÕt believe how I could do
such a thing to another woman. I agree. I didnÕt know any better at the age of
twenty-eight.
At
the time my one roommate was in her twenties and within a week of telling her I
was dating a separated married man then she abruptly decided to break a one year
lease and unbeknownst to me moved out and fled and left a mean handwritten note
behind her to inform me what she thought I was without ever having the courage
to peacefully speak to me as we had done since December 2004 and tell me what
truly bothered her most about my relationship to a forty year old separated yet
married man who I worked with in the same office. I was informed the marriage
was over and the first wife was in love with the first wifeÕs former writing
college professor. I donÕt know.
My
roommate was not only angry.
My
roommate was also disgusted with me. I felt ashamed.
My
roommate told me not to be gullible. She was right.
A
separated married man is a married man and must stay married and not date until
divorces are final because marriage is forever in many idealistic ways and the
marriage is able to be reconcilable at any time.
Yes,
in hind sight I believe married people must do anything positive to stay
together.
No
foul. No harm done.
On
such a November 2006 night I came home to an empty apartment and the place was
dark and spooky and echoed and my roommate had left without as much as a single
word while most roommates with years of friendship behind them donÕt react as
such.
Most
people have the courtesy to at least pick up the phone and break off
engagements or relationships with others.
ItÕs
best not to break up any relationship over the phone, however. ItÕs best to
call when thereÕs no other mode of communication.
Yes,
IÕve had one friendship break up over the phone summer 2017. Now, I get it.
Friendship breakups over the phone are the worst. Okay, Moving on. IÕve only
broken up with one friend over the telephone summer 2012.
In
my roommateÕs aggressively ripped out grocery paper bag crumbled piece of paper
and on a one paragraph hand written note my twenty-something roommate denounced
I was a narcissist because I wouldnÕt break off my relationship as my roommate
demanded I do one week earlier when we stood in the kitchen and cooked on such
a Friday night and talked about adultery.
My
roommate didnÕt request I break up she gave me an ultimatum I either break up
with this separated married man or my roommate and I wouldnÕt ever again be
friends.
How
dare I be willing to date a separated married man while my roommate considered
such a separated married man in his forties, too, old for me to date, however, I
was making the best decisions with the information presented to me at the time.
As
I had explained to my roommate the situation had been explained to me the separated
married couple had been apart for five years while the first wife Ņran around.Ó
However,
thereÕs no proven fact the first wife held any sexual encounters to anyone
although IÕve been told otherwise for twelve years. ItÕs none of my business. I
have no clue what happened in the first 16 year marriage since itÕs always been
a taboo subject matter to discuss.
ItÕs
none of my business, anyway.
The
past is in the past.
~~~
Within
the first year of our adultery in November of 2006 one-by-one many of my
Minnesota friends from the Twin Cities and of my generation broke up with me
over my choice of dating a separated married man because my friends of a decade
considered the entire situation adultery and my friends blatantly asked me to
leave the relationship or I would later pay by either being controlled as a
housewife without any income or divorced.
My
friends simply asked under what circumstances and how weÕd met and I answered
them directly about how the separated married man and I met at work and my
friends became enraged or angry or absolutely mad at me about the conditions in
which the separated married man and I met and got together and started dating
and soon after started living together within one month of dating.
By
the end of two years, my five best friends wanted absolutely nothing to do with
our relationship. They didnÕt support the idea of me having dated a separated
married man.
Friends
of my generation were outraged at what weÕd done. My friends thought better of
me. How disappointed my friends were of me. I felt terrible even though I kept
being reassured the first marriage was over. I believed.
My
friends warned me, that all IÕd ever be is a woman cleaning for an Ņold man.Ó I
asked my friends to please not to speak to me in such terms about my
relationship.
My
friends told me IÕd get old before my time being married to a man much older
than me and cleaning up after him. I asked my friends to please not to speak to
me in such terms about my relationship.
My
friends wanted to choose for me my future partner and husband. I wouldnÕt let
them set me up with dates.
Early
on my friends wanted to set me up with whom they best saw fit for me as a life
partner. I didnÕt mind the input simply I wanted to make my own decisions when
it came to partnership and romance even though IÕd been brought up to always
take more than two opinions into consideration and to this day I abide by such
rule.
~~~
On
August of 2006 I began to work for a corporation.
On
Thanksgiving of 2006 I began dating a separated married man from work.
On
December of 2006 the separated married man and I moved in together into my two
bedroom flat because at the time he believed his first wife of 16 years was
threatening to kill him by standing at the bottom of the stairs and watch him
sleep. I donÕt know.
Out
of all of the people in the world only the separated married manÕs female best friend
thought it a good idea we live together and save money after only one month of
dating.
From
the start of November 2006 I asked the separated married man to please not move
in with me since weÕd just began dating the prior month and we needed time to
get to know each other.
By
the end of December 2006 we moved in together while the separated married man
was still married until August of 2007.
August
of 2007 first sixteen year marriage divorce final.
In
September of 2007 I took a career hit and volunteered to be fired from my ideal
corporate job for being unwilling to spy against co-workers. I was sent home. I
peacefully walked home.
By
October 2008 I was told I could stay home and work from home if only I did all
of the chores, cooking or cleaning and house work. It was a promise. It was a
contract. I agreed. I would be taken care of except my partner refused to ever
talk about the debt accrued in the first 16 years of marriage and omitted vital
financial information. I stopped asking.
April
16th, 2009 we married.
September
of 2012 actually told roughly how much debt was accrued from the first 16 year
marriage and how big of a hit weÕd taken in the second marriage.
May
of 2017 finally went and looked over and read the first 16 year marriage
settlement papers and found out we actually had been adulterers while we dated
and lived together.
Yes,
I naively married for love even though now people tell me one doesnÕt marry for
love. One marries for financial security.
Yes,
the only reason why I allowed for the separated married man to move in is
because he continually told me he believed his first wife was going to kill him
in his sleep. How awful. I buckled under the pressure. I was already in love with
someone who I donÕt ever want to see any physical harm come to them no matter
what I once threatened in complete anger (words spoken in anger arenÕt actually
what they mean) in August 2017 my partner refused to give me money to go
purchase socks.
Yes,
weÕre adulterers. What can I say? Nothing.
Except
IÕve lived with this shame and guilt for close to twelve years since Roman
Catholic and Episcopalian and Jewish belief system is to not ever be an
adulterer no matter what otherwise oneÕs partner will eventually cheat since
nothing in the relationship is held sacred to begin with.
Personally,
to my knowledge we didnÕt ever step out of our marriage. Nobody has ever wanted
to be romantic with me and IÕve been directly informed. Thank you. IÕm not romantic.
IÕm not sentimental. IÕm pragmatic.
Personally
IÕve been informed after one year without sex (unless the wife goes through
illness) most men step out of their marriages unless the wife is physically ill
then most men simply emotionally checks out of their marriages because men
refuse to go without sex. Okay. I donÕt know.
Truly
Yours,
Gabriel

Hypothyroidism vs. Hyperthyroidism
No,
IÕm not a medical doctor.
No,
IÕm not a scientist.
No,
IÕm not a mathematician.
No,
IÕm not a journalist.
No,
IÕm not an actress.
No,
IÕm not a bot.
Simply,
IÕm someone who throughout the last twenty years dealt with many different
forms of tumors as well as dealt with anything from nerve pain to unimaginable
organ pressure pain to pharmaceutical pain while quitting Oxy-Contin prescribed
medication for tumor growth (2010-2012, 2013.)
My
main concern in life is how physical illnesses and disease cause different
people to react in certain ways or not.
Most
illness can bring out the worst in peopleÕs personalities simply because
continual and constant pain isnÕt natural.
However,
our burdens are our own to carry and heal from.
No,
I donÕt speak to anyone about my thyroid tumors.
Today,
I was informed about how people on any form of pharmaceutical pain killers or
anti-depressants are people who donÕt pass any types of bowel movements for
about four days at a time and usually such people are in dire pain and
incredibly angry people and itÕs not because theyÕre insane, itÕs because they
live in sheer physical pain from their bowels. Ok.
My
heart goes out to anyone whoÕs dealt with such discomfort as to not be able to
pass any type of bowel movement for days at a time. How painful.
53%
of Americans are hopped up or drugged up on some form of pain killers or
anti-depressants.
The
main aspect to constipation is to eat foods conducive to healthily pass bowel
movements and also to learn to massage (rub down) the abdominal area and back
(with deep tissue rub or soft tissue rub) while sitting in the bathroom waiting
to go at least once per day.
Illnesses
takes time to nourish and keep healthy and on top of disease or pain.
Past
the age of 20 most people have something or other they contend with some form
of illness or other.
The
great aspect about pharmaceuticals is mainly medicine is there to help fluctuate
certain dire literal medical physical conditions while creating others is
difficult to deal with, however. Cope we must.
The Thyroid
Mainly,
Ņin a nut shellÓ the thyroid is a gland in the throat for which temperature is
controlled as well as metabolism.
The
reason why I like to write about whatever medically occurs to me is to have attention
placed and be drawn to the more hormonal aspects of the human body than not.
Humans
are made up of hormones.
The
thyroid has nothing to do with being insane.
On
both men and women the thyroid has to do with body temperature control and
either weight gain or weight loss.
When
the thyroid is enlarged then usually one eats salt and the thyroid works well.
However,
when clusters of tumors like grape branches form on either side of the thyroid
then all one can do is to learn to keep oneÕs body temperature balanced or one
will faint from overheating.
Although,
rarely will one faint hence one learns to more easily navigate and fluctuate
body temperature like a pro.
When
branches of tumors form on either side of the thyroid gland then more or less
all one can do is to keep an eye on the tumors and the size of the tumors.
As
of now my cluster of tumors are too small to operate on and yet, too, big not
to notice the difference in body temperature as well as metabolism.
From
the very little I know since spring 2017 IÕve dealt with Ņhot flashesÓ or
change in rapid body temperature while I lay down to sleep.
The
only times I get Ņhot flashesÓ are when I lay down and sleep.
Mainly,
after four or five years with branches of tumors on either side of the thyroid
I find as of recently my body heats up incredibly quickly and rapidly to an
excessive boiling point therefore I must dress down to nothing except t-shirts
and jeans throughout the days otherwise a sweater or a jacket can cause me to
faint and I refuse to go around fainting since IÕm smart enough to regulate my
own body temperature.
When
the body comes near an overheated point then one feels like fainting mainly
because itÕs like when one has pneumonia and one isnÕt able to control body
temperature and the body excessively overheats incredibly and rapidly and one
must either immediately bring down the body temperature or jump into a bath
filled with ice otherwise with pneumonia one can quickly die, however, with the
thyroid one mainly experiences extreme discomfort for years at a time.
Do
you know what itÕs like to not have oneÕs body control body temperature? Rather
uniquely weird.
Thyroid and Metabolism
My
body weight is 145 pounds.
The
food I eat is mainly bagels with cream cheese or Ņspring greensÓ or fruit in
the form of apples or bananas or blueberries or 16 chips with dinner.
Cereal
and milk and Mac and Cheese are on the list as well as Chinese order-in or
pizza or fast food hamburgers. Keeping away from sugar sodas or sweets even
though I have a sweet tooth.
As
of yesterday I found out usually when one has a thyroid condition in which one
runs hot then one must not drink alcohol (which I drink one beer per week, no
more wine and no more Champaign except New YearÕs Eve) as well as one must go
without hot coffee or chocolate or hot teas and hot cocoa or hot drinks thus
mainly only water and cold drinks will do to keep body temperature down and
from overheating.
Life
without hot coffee will be different.
Life
without chocolate will be different.
Life
without hot cocoa will be different.
Life
without hot tea will be different.
All
I know is one must literally look forward and keep oneÕs chin parallel to the
ground otherwise when one moves oneÕs head too much or rotates oneÕs head to
either side of oneÕs shoulders then the thyroid gland and the cluster of tumors
squeeze the voice box therefore I stay quite still since my voice can sometimes
become a whisper or raspy or thin.
The
loss of literal voice quality is unfortunate.
For
years now IÕve know I can easily choke on certain foods therefore I refuse to
eat certain types of pancake mix or granola mixes or anything too refined in
the same consistency as sugar otherwise by mistake IÕll end up choking on food
and a coughing fit can go on for a long while.
Cereal
must be eaten soggy.
Personally,
the only time my throat burns is when I either touch my throat or sleep wrong
on my neck or by mistake choke on refined foods or the tumors ever as slightly
grow with the passing years.
No,
the thyroid tumor pain isnÕt like the fibroid tumor pain.
The
thyroid tumor pain is more like a constant numbness.
Yes,
the thyroid tumor pain is ten times more manageable and without a hormonal
influx simply a temperature influx.
The
thyroid tumors donÕt cause me to be hormonally irritable or angry simply more
quiet to preserve my voice.
ThereÕs
nothing weirder than not be able to have the body naturally regulate its own
temperature. IÕm bewildered at how tremendous the human body truly is.
Sometimes
if the thyroid gland is too enlarged then the only way to truly get any food
down the throat is to tilt oneÕs head back and put food into oneÕs mouth by
hand and chew and get it down.
The
other most severely painful daily ritual is to brush oneÕs tongue with
toothpaste and the toothpaste burns the throat like fire.
Truly
Yours;
Gabriel

Adult Women arenÕt Children
On
Sunday, December 10th, 2017 for the first time in my life I
literally fainted from overheating. I fainted for three seconds. I had a ŅWendy
WilliamsÕ moment.Ó
Yes,
on the Sunday of December 10th I did some online research on the
subject of overheating and fainting and menopause.
Fainting
isnÕt pretty. One goes down like a heavy mass.
In
December 2017 for the first time I caught wind or news of Wendy Williams and
her fainting spell. I earnestly canÕt imagine how fainting mustÕve been for Wendy
Williams especially over public broadcast television. My heart went out to her.
At least I fainted by myself in private and in the comfort of my abode.
Completely sober and overheated.
Once
women become of a certain age then women easily overheat from Ņhot flashesÓ and
one must re-learn how to dress all over again especially for cold weather. On
must dress in layers.
Yes,
women get their menopause at the age of fifty, however.
My
hormones have been ill therefore at the age of forty I now get hot flashes and
am going through early menopause. Menopause lasts about a decade. By the age of
fifty IÕll be done with menopause.
No,
I no longer get hormonal influxes and flashes of anger and hold my tongue and
barely react unless directly addressed then I speak and what more is there to
say? Hi.
Yes,
if my black hair begins to go grey or white then IÕll grow out my hair long and
turn my hair white simply because I think white hair is gorgeous.
No,
I donÕt speak or discuss pre-menopause with anyone I know other than my female
doctors. Thank you.
No,
I donÕt whine or complain about pre-menopause with anyone at all. Thank you.
Hardly,
anyone in my life knows IÕm going through early menopause unless my friends and
family read this blog which they donÕt.
Simply,
because I write as an Ņopen bookÓ doesnÕt mean IÕm willing to verbally impose
myself or discuss extremely private health matters with anyone since itÕs my
personal burden to carry.
No,
I donÕt ever go around discussing or describing my daily bowel movements. No.
IÕm not three.
Americans
tend to tell me about their bowel movements therefore I write about bowel
movements since discussing such aspects of health seems all too common in
modern culture.
Writing
isnÕt speaking.
Writing
isnÕt conversation.
Writing
is after the fact.
Writing
is notation.
Writing
is copious notes.
Writing
is writing and noteworthy.
Personally,
I pride myself in being American, however. WeÕre all first human with needs and
wants and desires.
Humans
are organic matter and chemical compounds.
Humans
are protein and electricity.
Modern
women are classy and mature.
Women
know mature women must first take care of our emotional needs even though women
are hormonally different than men. Men also are hormonal only differently from
women.
~~~
No, IÕm not a Ņspoiled brat,Ó
(not in general)
However, I sure can act like one
When personally attacked
or provoked for a length of time
or physical boundaries crossed.
As
a mature woman of forty, I donÕt have much to say to anyone.
What
is there to say?
ThereÕs
nothing much to say to any one person unless people are mature and consistent
and in control of their hormones or people ask questions.
Without
any fake-pregnancy hormones and tumors I donÕt have much of anything verbal to say
since life is complex and full of context and content and mature adult
circumstances and situations and continual forgiveness and being the bigger
person especially when others refuse to be socially well conditioned to be
positively social with others.
The
entire goal of mature adulthood is not to ever go out of oneÕs way to put down
or undermine or alienate or purposely hurt or misguide other peopleÕs feelings
or criticize or judge or belittle or berate people who donÕt share the same
opinions otherwise quiet and snarky verbal misconduct is about being unhappy
with life through manipulative or convoluted miscommunication for the sake to
throw others off imbalance of power over absolute control of other people only
when one is insecure about their place in the world.
Snarky
is for television. Television isnÕt real yet influential.
Snarky
is what television characters do in sitcoms.
Money
has nothing to do with power.
{As far as I know IÕve been considered a
ŅnobodyÓ as an American immigrant and have paid my own taxpayerÕs taxes since
the age of sixteen. I get a vote. I get a say.
Since
I get a vote then anyone else also gets a vote.
Since
I get a say then anyone else also gets a say.
Since
I blog then anyone else is also able to constructively blog from their open
point of view.
Blogging
is more or less contemporary record keeping.
The
entire point of this blogÕs lesson: Americans are democratic in freedom of
speech thus Americans are considered one of the most powerful nations on Earth
as well as great writers. I donÕt own the internet. (One of my favorite genres
is to read contemporary blogs.) I simply stand on my bit of earth and write
down data about any subject matter for which calls to be fit to write about on
any particular day.}
Power
is more than influence.
Power
canÕt be bought.
Love
canÕt be bought.
Respect
is granted.
Trust
is earned.
Money
is about acquiring resources.
Money
is about sharing resources.
No,
I hardly ever care what others do.
Their
decisions are their own.
No,
I donÕt ever believe or think I know the answer when events or circumstances or
situations are right or wrong.
For
sure I know thereÕs a major grey spectrum.
Yes,
when provoked for long periods of time over decades then I can get stubborn because
positive change is only around the corner.
Yes,
I can act like a Ņspoiled bratÓ with three specific different people in my life
since all IÕve ever wanted is control over my free time to spend down time
however IÕve wanted without the pressure of obligations or without having to be
obliged to spend my money or time to clean for other people or possibly have to
entertain others when IÕm a guest or criticized or belittled for resting and
relaxation or to be made to feel guilty or ashamed for not taking out other
peopleÕs garbage or to agree with them in all matters of opinion.
~~~
One Must Meet OneÕs Emotional Needs
Emotionally
needy people or insecure people sure are exhausting when people donÕt meet
their own emotional needs therefore I stay away and rest and relax whenever
itÕs down time otherwise computer time, job hunting and writing and running a
property for earned wages.
Yes,
seldom yet in complete miscommunication have I acted out through intense
fake-pregnancy hormonal imbalance and three surgeries only with three different
people in my life who havenÕt been able to hear or accept Ņno, thank you.Ó I
donÕt want to visit because tumors are tiresome and when thereÕs down time then
one must first always take care of themselves and not others. Doctors have told
me.
Yes,
I verbally argued with my partner because I didnÕt know how to emotionally take
care of myself when IÕd already said ŅnoÓ sometimes nearly in the upwards of
five times while discussing how to spend our free time. Eight years of car
rides were out of the question for me.
Please,
by all means -- be my guest and go ahead and attend events whenever, however.
If my health doesnÕt permit me to venture out then I wonÕt. The end of story.
Yes,
as a mature woman I learned early in our marriage there was hardly any money
for me at all and more of the first marriage marital debt therefore I forwent
without hair cuts or forming friendships which consist of going out in public
for meals or events since there wasnÕt any money to differently conduct life I
resigned myself to such facts and sacrificed a decade of solitude which one can
end solitude at any given moment and work outside the home or volunteer,
however.
For
domestic partners who work inside the home then more work outside of the home
is only added work on top of housework without pay.
Yes,
intellectually IÕve always known not to yell or scream or swear at anyone and I
donÕt for the most part.
Although,
within the past twenty years and about 7 verbal altercations if by the time IÕve already specifically
yelled or sworn or screamed at someone is only because such misbehaved humans
have already literally either spat in my face or pushed me or inappropriately
touched me or have said things such as ŅyouÕll make a terrible motherÓ then
IÕve lectured at high octave and my throat has hurt for days afterwards. Ouch.
As
any mature woman IÕm not a verbal bully to anyone except when IÕve been
physically attacked. I hold the right to defend myself whenever possible IÕve
had my life literally threatened.
As
any mature woman IÕm glad others live their lives as they best see fit without ever
having me figure out the answers for others. I donÕt care to make decisions for
others.
As
any mature woman I live my life and constructively figure out my life as a woman
and human and to the best of my ability I am a good neighbor and a good friend
and a good confidant and a mature human who minds my own business and donÕt go
looking for trouble or want to ever address any issues of any matter unless
someone brings up issues or someone doesnÕt follow through with already set
plans in motion unless discussed to stop or change course.
No,
I absolutely donÕt judge or criticize other people unless they personally come
at me which in my life it has only been Caucasian people who have made it
absolutely and evidently well known to me I have zero value and hold no worth,
however. Wrong.
As
any mature woman I have absolute value and much worth.
No,
I donÕt have any power.
No,
the point of this blog isnÕt to hold any power. No, IÕm too simply minded and
care too much about balance than about power.
Yes,
I have a voice.
Yes,
I have opinions and for the most part my opinions arenÕt always wrong simply
because I do much research and read tens of thousands of articles per year.
No,
IÕm neither a child nor to be treated like a child.
Time
and time again IÕve proven IÕm not a child.
WouldnÕt
it be awesome to be a spoiled brat? No.
WouldnÕt
it be awesome to stay a child forever? No.
Middle
Income Earners donÕt afford to be mentally ill or spoiled brats.

Income Earners afford to be mature.

Physical Pain
Feels like Torture
Of the human body
Since
I no longer live in pain or with fibroid tumors then IÕm finally relaxed and
back to my old self in which I donÕt care to correct anyone no matter how wrong
they are. I donÕt get riled up about anything since thereÕs no point in ever
being serious since nothingÕs as important as getting stressed out over
anything other thanÉ
Snarky
is insecurity in real life.
As
far as modern Americans know ŅsnarkyÓ only exists in characters portrayed on
modern sitcoms. Ok. Good to know.
Good
sense of humor is good sense of humor.
Generally
funny is awesome.
Yes,
I can go days and years and decades without verbally saying anything since I
spent the decade of my twenties living alone in an apartment without
conversation except from awesome neighbors throughout the decades of weekly hot
chocolate sessions and parties and potlucks once a week even if we lived on top
of neighborhood and tourist garbage and I personally without discussing with
the neighbors volunteered to clean up in front of our block with large garbage
bags and rubber gloves especially when my parents or family visited our flat in
Uptown.
No,
one doesnÕt ever have to clean up neighborhood garbage, however. One must keep
oneÕs yard and property for the most part clean and neat. ItÕs what most people
pay property taxes for as well as for public districts and public education.
Yes,
as a part time domestic stay-at-home housewife and documentary film maker I
strongly believed in getting out there in front of our block and pick up the
neighborhood and tourist garbage and move on with the days and weeks and months
and six years in the same flat in the same neighborhood.
Literally,
weekly for years as a stay-at-home housewife and documentary filmmaker I would
go out in all types of weather behind our alley and pick up smashed glass run
over by the garbage trucks then our car wouldnÕt get flat tires. I didnÕt find
it necessary to ask for volunteer help from neighbors since people are adults
and theyÕll care for what they find important.
To
donate money is easier than physical volunteer work.
~~~
All One Can Control is OneÕs Reaction
From Conflict Always Walk Away First
Yes,
intellectually I know not to react to negative criticism since negative
criticism is others showing their true colors about how insecure they are.
Yes,
intellectually I know not to react to people wanting to control my spare time
since from now on IÕm going to do what is best for me which is rest and relax
while others get stressed out about their social obligations since I donÕt have
any obligations after a decade of giving my free time away to in-laws.
Yes,
now for which I survived fibroid tumors and the pain and hemorrhaging through
eight continuous years then I donÕt care to ever Ņget out of characterÓ or
angry about the pettiness of others.
Yes,
let others be angry and deal with their own disappointments.
Yes,
IÕm mature since IÕve proven IÕve had to give much more of myself than others
have. Act as the bigger man. Be quiet and go about oneÕs way.
Truly
Yours;
Gabriel

Hello.
Upload: 5:32pm CT
Happy Thursday!
It now takes me an hour to blog and 30 minutes to edit.
IÕve cut down my writing time from four hours.
--- --- ---
Correction: from ŅvowelÓ to bowel movement.
A vowel is: A, E, I, O and U while a bowel movement is organic matter passed through the body and made into fecal matter.
Correction: from Ņprocess of illuminationÓ to Ņprocess of eliminationÓ
When I write English I sound out words for which many different English words sound alike. Lost in translation.
If one thinks IÕm a bad English speller and punctuator then itÕs correct, however. IÕm worse as a Spanish speller and punctuation.
English is real difficult to write well without any mistakes.
The great aspect about editing is to catch mistakes and correct them. One foot in front of the other.

No, I donÕt have a need to be relevant since I donÕt make headlines.

Mainly, I jumped back up on the horse because my friends told me not to give up on something I had already started and to finish it. Ok.

Men and Women
Sexual Health
Mainly,
IÕm concerned with womenÕs health.
WomenÕs
sexual health and reproductive rights are underrated.
Progress
is nice, however.
Healthy
change is better.
Sexually
women have needs.
Sexually
men have needs.
Yes,
throughout (not all the time) eight years of benign fibroid tumors and three
operations and continual hemorrhaging and actual pain I did wrongfully and
ignorantly asked for a ŅdivorceÓ from my partner when all I meant to ask is to
please Ņgive me a breakÓ from the in-laws since my body was in constant physical
pain with both my colon and bladder pushed and squeezed for the tumors to grow
and take place and shape and form inside the uterus until I could barely
breathe well or sit upright.
Yes,
car rides were the most painful aspect to contend or deal with.
A
car ride to the grocery store was more painful than I can explain here thus at
times I took out my physical pain on my partner and would pick stupid fights
then weÕd get extremely mad at each other and all hell broke loose while we would
yell at each other then went completely silent and ignored any type of miscommunication
or conflict until the next time many months down the road.
Therefore,
the more the tumor pain became unbearable with each passing year and each car
ride then the less I cared to travel anywhere other than directly to the couch
on weekends for the long Sabbath of doing absolutely nothing at all as I have
for the past twenty years.
However,
I felt guilty and ashamed to be considered a bad in-law for not wanting to make
any trips each year for seven years and make the annual 17 trips per year to
see the in-laws when my body didnÕt have the ability to take painful three hour
car rides on weekends which left me exhausted, irritable and in more physical pain
than I was willing to admit I could manage on my own at the time.
For
some reason my illnesses and actual physical pain were constantly undermined or
dismissed or diminished or minimized and I was told I was expected to be
present and represent our side of the familial order by being married to the
youngest son and mandatorily show up each and almost nearly every time the
in-laws beckoned us even though I was Ņsicker than a dogÓ the contradiction to
not feel obligated or obliged yet mandatorily summoned was too much pressure
and I got mad at the social pressure to constantly appease others when I
couldnÕt or I didnÕt want to.
ŅNo,
thank you,Ó didnÕt ever mean ŅNo, thank you.Ó
Yes,
I knew it was best for me to stay close to home and not clean or take care of
anybody elseÕs needs while I was terribly sick yet the pressure to be a good
daughter and wife and to constantly and always support men and menÕs families is
something I buckled under the pressure and I shanÕt again. I donÕt like to have
to entertain people like a little monkey. A guest is a guest and not the
entertainment or the cleaning crew.
Personally,
I donÕt like to have to take all of the interest in a conversation with mostly
all others present in a group since its exhaustive work to talk to people
especially without any misunderstanding, however.
When
no one ever asks about anybody else then it means people are jealous or arenÕt
mindful enough to think of questions to ask others or they simply donÕt care to
know therefore thereÕs nothing to do except be quiet or ask questions at
exhaustive lengths to navigate around awkward silences yet questions arenÕt any
two way conversation. Questions are questions rather than shared interest.
The
whole point is this:
No,
I didnÕt have the courage to stay home alone and take care of myself and send
my partner off to see the in-laws by himself therefore I felt slighted by
constantly having to choose between giving up my free time from cleaning and
writing and having to be forced to take care of my health in having to chose excruciating
travel by car.
Being
in pain is the quickest way to be sexless.
The
more I debated and argued for not wanting to go to the in-laws then the more
heated the discussions got about not ever being able to discuss proper rules
and times and place for which to visit two sets of families rather than only
one through seven years of an illness.
Yes,
personally I excluded my family from getting together with them for the past three
years mainly because there was only money and time to go see one set of in-laws,
however not the other side of the family.
You
donÕt ever have to go and visit with anyone you donÕt want to even if itÕs your
parents. Although, itÕs best, however, not mandatory or an obligation.
Money
got in the way of discussing real important issues about why only one side of
the family got all of the economic travel budgets and attention and time and not
others.
~~~
Yes,
money and sex are closely related and deal with much of who has the control in
a relationship. Although, itÕs wrong to have all of the control. Otherwise, it
isnÕt a relationship.
No
matter how much one partner may feel uncomfortable with decisions made,
ultimately, the decisions come down to who makes more money or who makes all of
the money then one partner is out of luck or voice or say as to how a couple
lives a lifestyle jointly without ever taking advantage of the one who works
from home and their valuable time for rest and relaxation without entertaining
the in-laws.
ItÕs
wrong for only one partner to have all of the control and say and money in a
relationship.
Yes,
I was a coward and would not actually come out and ask why only importance or emphasis
was placed on one set of family members and not others when I didnÕt care to
have to travel to anywhere.
Yes,
even though at times my family has yelled and gotten extremely mad at each
other and said the unthinkable such as weÕve sworn to refuse to ever forgive
each other, we actually do come around and do forgive each other. We do
actually prove to be good to each other. We prove to be a family.
Aside
from any personal issues why does only one partner usually get all the say or
greedily makes all of the decisions about the most important financial
decisions needed to be made such as how to spend vacation time and money.
Yes,
I was a coward not to be able to come out and say I needed new pair of socks
from August 2012 through May 2017.
May
2017 I finally bought socks for my birthday.
Not
having enough money for one partnerÕs basic needs is an oversight and
disrespectful.
No,
I ought not to ever over-give of myself and be made the martyr or victim or
immature since IÕm a woman.
Why
is it difficult to debate or bicker or reasonably argue with a partner to
please supply money for socks to their stay-at-home partner when the bigger
issue is for years thereÕs no money for one partner because cleaning house and
taking care of a property isnÕt considered a respectful occupation therefore
the sex dampens and life is more difficult and meaner than need be.
The
more I brought up the word ŅdivorceÓ and the more my partner negatively reacted
to me then the more I felt safe because there was some spark of hope left
between us enough to show he cared to argue or at least showed any type of
emotion other than withdrawn anger he actually showed concern and I could tell
he cared even though he hardly ever come out and said, ŅI care about what
happens to us.Ó
Yes,
I was a coward and wasnÕt ever able to verbalize I needed physical affection
and a Ņthank youÓ once a week.
No,
IÕve not ever asked to be called beautiful or be treated like a princess. All
IÕve ever wanted is a sign of appreciation. I wanted to be wanted and needed
rather than be discarded as something insignificant I did to take care of our
home.
Yes,
I was too much of a coward to say I needed to be appreciated not because I need
to hear how great I am. Simply I need to know IÕm still seen as a woman.
Mainly,
I wanted to hear some type of gratitude about my efforts as a cleaning woman
for housewife because if no one knows this then being a domestic partner or parent
or an educational teacher are the three most difficult jobs in the world. They
donÕt ever end. ItÕs all work all day long.
Yes,
I wanted to be sexually recognized and wanted by my partner, however. My
partner assumed I didnÕt ever want sex because I was ill with uterine tumors and
hemorrhaging.
For
the most part my partner was right, however. I wanted to be asked because I was
too much of a coward to ask for sex simply and only because IÕm the woman in
the relationship and the weaker sex.
Yet
the more negative attention I received from my partner when we fought about
traveling or finances or how much of our free time we had to give up I still
wasnÕt romantically satisfied since tragically all of our meals for eleven
years took place in front of the television then my partner and I didnÕt ever
have eye contact or face time or have to talk about anything in our lives to
each other therefore the years passed by and no one would say anything of much
value or meaning or importance because the television took precedence over the
relationship and the partners in the relationship are immature with each other
since no one wants to hear what the other person has to say on a daily basis.
The
research shows the loneliest people are married people.
Yes,
I wanted to feel sexy with my partner.
Yet
the more I brought up the word ŅdivorceÓ as a way to bond and have us have at
least something in common to discuss between us then the more difficult it became
to be intimately nurtured and love was withheld and I became more scared I was
being disrespected and I wasnÕt loved therefore we physically did hold each
other throughout the years and were sexually active without being sexual,
however.
~~~
The
hemorrhaging made love making difficult as well as the excruciating pain from
the tumors.
It
was difficult to ask for sex ever since summer 2016 when my father put the idea
inside my head all marriage is prostitution and even though my father might as
well be right. I didnÕt want to think of myself as a prostitute even though in
marriage one ends up paying a hefty price for sex.
Yes,
I want to be considered a sexual being without having my breasts hang out of my
shirt and even though I clean the bathroom floor.
Not
only do I wish to be considered a sexual being by my partner, however.
When
most of oneÕs family sees one as a ŅmatronÓ then what other role does one have
other than the given role to clean up messes and to clean up after others until
one stops and decides another role for oneself.
No,
I donÕt want to be turned into an old woman before my time.
Yes,
I first want to be respected for being nurturing and taking great and genuine
interest in the lives of others and giving more of myself than is required,
however.
Yet,
why canÕt I ever be the first one to say, Ņno.Ó I donÕt want to have to
navigate or negotiate how many times per year I had to see in-laws in order to
get sexual intimacy or to set aside a little bit of money to fulfill my basic
needs such as purchase socks or underwear.
Why
does a woman have to give up so much more of herself than men do in order to be
respected by men and their families?
Finally
two summers ago as of 2016 my father explained to me that asking for a
ŅdivorceÓ is the same as not having job security.
Yes,
relationships are hard work, however, love isnÕt work.
Mainly,
I wanted attention from my partner and the only way to get attention was to
bring up the word ŅdivorceÓ and he would actually get interested in us and riled
up about something or anything at all pertaining to us as a romantic couple.
Yes,
I needed any type of attention so long as I got attention because gratitude was
withheld and hardly ever heard a simple Ņthank youÓ for all of the cleaning and
organization I did throughout a decade does leave one washed out and with very
little sexuality.
Yes,
IÕve been accused of being obsessive compulsive about cleaning, however.
Occasional
prescription of painkillers such as Oxy-Contin makes people do funny things
like over clean or speak in moronic made-up accents because the brain receptors
donÕt handle the chemical imbalance of strong pharmaceuticals.
Yes,
IÕve been accused of being obsessive compulsive about cleaning, however. Two
years spent on 20MG of Escitalopram for a fake-pregnancy hormone imbalance is
nearly the same as being on speed and one cleans and cleans and oneÕs aware one
cleans too much yet itÕs difficult to stop until the body almost drops from
exhaustion.
Yes,
IÕm aware I took out pent up aggression and hostility out on cleaning.
Yes,
IÕm all, too, aware about how sexless I became throughout the years in which I
was pigeon holed into a particular female role of caretaker rather than guest
to in-laws.
Yes,
I over cleaned throughout the years because I wasnÕt bringing in any money as a
housewife and our in-laws brought up the subject about how I didnÕt work outside
of the home therefore I didnÕt make any money therefore more or less insinuated
I brought nothing valuable to the table therefore I had to prove to have some
worth and the only thing I had was to clean like a farmer girl and take care of
a manÕs whole existence therefore I was stuck in some sick cycle of over
cleaning and also pushed to offer to clean for some of my in-laws even though I
didnÕt want to otherwise I was belittled or berated as a houseguest and when
one is a continual houseguest throughout the years then all one does is keep
any conflict at bay thus I obeyed like a child and was stuck in a child-woman
role to have to ask for permission as to how I wanted to spend my free time for
relaxation.
The
first time I ever visited my in-laws they handed me a bucket of soapy water and
rag cloths and told me to go and clean all of their outdoor windows. It took me
two hours while I was yelled at how bad I was at cleaning windows for free.
Holy
cow. Extremely bad manners.
Pain
can drive people to say crazy things or so itÕs been explained by nurses at
hospital.
Yes,
IÕm disappointed in myself not to have been able to find a better word other than
ŅdivorceÓ when all I ever wanted was to be romantically acknowledged in some
form or another by my partner other than conflict.
Yes,
even though IÕm allergic to plants and flowers.
Once
in a while on our anniversary and with my partnerÕs initiative I wanted him to
surprise me with a dozen roses except I ran the household ledger and there
wasnÕt ever any money for frivolous gifts such as roses or jewelry therefore a
woman will sacrifice yet the sacrifice might make her bitter and isolated not
to ever have a man make a gesture of romantic love.
The
reason why I donÕt wear jewelry is because jewelry can be heavy and throw off
the alignment of the spine. I donÕt like any jewelry to weigh down any one side
of my body on either side of the spine ridge, however.
If
only once in eleven years without any reminders or asking or having to mention purchasing
a piece of jewelry I wouldÕve loved it if it couldÕve happened out of my
partnerÕs sheer imagination to go for it and purchase romantic gifts otherwise
one goes without womanly gifts for years at a time and then the role of woman
becomes a thing rather than a human.
No,
not ever do I expect life to be romantic.
If
anything life is unromantic.
Life
is stupendous and amazing, however, hardly ever romantic. Most of life is
organization and work and rest, if possible which relaxation of the body isnÕt
necessarily sex.
Relaxation
is pleasure
Rest
is to restore muscle.
Sex
is for pleasure.
How
do partners bridge the great divide when sex is difficult to discuss or do?
After
years of intimacy how do people best rectify their need for autonomy yet stay
sexually active with interest and love and respect in active relationships?
No,
I donÕt get personal about the history of my current legal partner and my
sexual relationship since itÕs extremely private.
No,
I havenÕt ever written about what positions we took or how we looked in the
nude or how it felt. No.
If
anything I talk about something more valuable such as how to stay sexually
connected to oneÕs partner long after the sexual intimacy fled the
relationship?
How
do couples in general overcome withholding sex or intimacy or general physical
attraction when theyÕre either distant from each other or angry at each other
or stubborn or filled with negative emotions which drive people from a place of
ego than a place of kindness and love.
How
do people truly forgive human error and heated words and past hurts and occasional
bursts of anger in search of love?
How
do people deal with the disrespect of withheld love?
How
do people deal with rejection?
How
do people move forward when hardly any human contact is made between couples in
general?
The
only way to get through difficult patches is to be graceful.
Why
do people allow themselves to get to a point of being irritated by the things
which used to bring them the most joy?
What
is it about sex which can be used as a power play?
What
is it about money which can be used as a power play?
Positive
sexual relations is when both partners love and find it within themselves to
let go of past wrongs and words said in anger and physical pain otherwise
people are only conditionally loved.
ItÕs
more difficult to forgive then people think when people are closed off or driven
by ego or simply stuck in being angry for the sake to being angry or mad about
being rejected or ignored or abandoned since weÕre all ignored or abandoned or
rejected to a certain extend or another in any relationship.
Ego
is a great destroyer of faith.
Greed
is a great provider to justify how to control resources.
Why
is sex a controlled resource in marriage?
Truly
Yours,
Gabriel

Shouting.

Never speak to your acquaintances from one side of the street to the other. Shouting is a certain sign of vulgarity. First approach, and then make your communication to your acquaintance or friend in a moderately loud tone of voice.
The above passage is indeed correctly re-copied unto this page.

Take it away Ms. Rachel Maddow!
(No, I donÕt go out of my way to meet or reach out or get in touch with Ms. Maddow.) Nope.
Take it away Mr. Bill Maher!
(Yes, I have written only two letters to two famous people. George W. Bush and Mr. Bill Maher. I wrote a letter to Mr. Bill Maher about the huge controversial municipal matter on the minds of Los Angeles, CA citizens and civilians, August 2017: clean water action.)
The show ŅDeliciousÓ Thank you.
Mr. Graham NortonÕs ŌThe Red ChairÕ Thank you.
ŅTravel ManÓ Thank you.

Yes, HallmarkÕs terrible films are mind candy.
They lack a lot to be desired.
Yes, my film scripts are as terrible as any Hallmark film.
Oh, the Hallmark films rock in the sense the video is high resolution and the cinematography is steady and strong and smooth as well as idealistic storylines and make-believe plot lines. Fluff.

ŅBack Up On the HorseÓ
Writing doesnÕt take money to do.
Writing takes time and thought and effort to write.
Okay, I wonÕt abandon ship only two years out.
ThereÕre only four things IÕm really good at:
Eating food and writing and constructively thinking
through ideas and thought analysis
and discrepancies in communications
and organization of hardware or digital files.
Yes, still job hunting.

Rollercoaster Rides are a Safe
American Pastime
One
of the greatest American pastimes is to partake in roller coaster rides.
ThereÕs
nothing ŅinsaneÓ about roller coaster rides otherwise one wouldnÕt ride such fine
piece of machinery and hunk of metal.
As
with the word ŅhateÓ and ŅinsaneÓ or the ŅnÓ word please refrain from modern
vernacular usage of the language unless or otherwise one literally means
exactly what one says.
Yes,
ŅeverybodyÕs crazy,Ó Ņhowever, not everyoneÕs insane.Ó
Rather
than say ŅinsaneÓ itÕs best to say Ņawesome.Ó
When
technology stands of its own accord then itÕs brilliant.
When
content makes sense then itÕs brilliant of its own accord.
This
content is for this space and place and time and medium and no other.
No,
IÕm not seeking to be relevant since I donÕt make any headlines. IÕm a laywoman
citizen and civilian.
Yes,
when we first begun this blog I thought no one would read and the blog was
meant to be more like Ņa message in a bottleÓ and forgotten and found a hundred
years later to be read then, however. Blogs seem to be extremely contemporary.
No,
IÕm not spectacular.
Yesterday,
I got down on hands and knees and wiped down the toilet seat and scrubbed the
bathroom floor and took out the trash and recycling.
Content
is at viewerÕs discretion.
A
good and perfect writer makes good sense out of the worldÕs confusion by
deciphering through the Ņprocess of eliminationÓ and critical thought analysis.
Thinking
is work.
Writing
is thinking through the malicious confusion of none sense.
If
one doesnÕt like this content then donÕt look. Writing isnÕt like an outfit
since my clothes are on straight thereÕs no reason to criticize my wardrobe.
Look
away.
DonÕt
read.
ItÕs
a free country.
No,
this isnÕt Ņchic litÓ since itÕs a journal entry and not a novel.
No,
I donÕt like to publically write yet I love to write and I like the process of
discipline since editing my own writing proves to be more difficult than
writing in and of itself even though writing is the bulk of the hard work.
Yes,
I finished my one film script per year which IÕm now up to three per year
except IÕm terrible at the genre.
No,
writers donÕt ever run out of ideas for subject matter to write.
Anything
is fodder.
Actors
play make-believe character roles in movies or plays on a stage or television.
Actors
are real people. Yes.
Actors
arenÕt to be considered or associated by the roles actors play from different
characters actors play in film scripts.
Writers,
especially bloggers write from their alter-ego.
My
literary alter-ego takes after my Grandpa Al who was a crabby and cantankerous
and curmudgeonly old Finn man and was one of my best of friends before he died
with a solid heart of gold.
Personally,
I find most if not then many of American roller coaster rides to be some of the
most fun and exciting and exhilarating and safest of pastimes since we believe
in American engineering thus our family and friends and extended beloved ones
continue to frequent roller coaster rides and find roller coaster rides enjoyable
and a feat of ingenuity, precision and smarts.
Amazing
how one is able to go on any safe adventure and return in one piece without
falling out of the sky or crash to oneÕs death or mistakenly kill anyone else,
for such matters.
At
the end of any awesome roller coaster ride one touches Tierra firma and gets to
go on to the cotton candy station and popcorn booth.
Super
awesome to defy the laws of literary gravity and ride fast around corners or to
descend super fast from a high vantage point of view and altitude again without
crashing to oneÕs death or to oneÕs demise.
ThereÕs
nothing more American than cotton candy, roller coasters and hotdogs.
Of
course, baseball.

A List:
1. Yes, I refuse to collect disability
Since IÕm not mentally ill
Continually since 2014,
I pass psychological tests
and get asked by therapists
to terminate therapy sessions
since I keep being informed
thereÕs no mental illness
except I must mature
about specific verbal conflict
against verbal abuse
As an adult woman I must not get upset
when others wish is to control me.
Otherwise I come out looking the fool.
No, I donÕt go around
and get into confrontations with anyone.
Throughout the years and decades
IÕve been peaceful
and cleaned as a part time housewife
and part time wrote
and ran a documentary film company
then after fifteen years the film company was dissolved
and I continue to write
and mind my own business.
What
more can one ask for? Nothing.
Not ever do I leave the house looking for trouble. No.
Yes, our neighbors are my best friends of three years.
For twenty years,
two family members
blatantly have asked me to go and get diagnosed
with some form of mental illness
to qualify for disability
and get money from the state.
Since 2008,
My current legal partner has asked me
To go and get diagnosed with some form of mental illness
To specifically qualify for disability
And get money from the state.
In August 2017, hesitantly I asked
a health psychological medical professional
if I would be approved
for some type of official mental illness
since two family members and husband
have repeatedly asked since 2008
to have me ask medical psychological experts
to diagnose me
with something or other or with mental illness
to specifically qualify for disability
and the medical psychological experts
tell me I donÕt have a mental illness. IÕm simply human.
Yes, directly I discuss with psychological experts
About the strong wish three people in my life have for me
To receive disability and IÕve only discussed
This with the psychological experts
because I get embarrassed to ask if
I qualify for disability or not.
Bad intelligence.
As far as I know IÕm constant
and a stay-at-home body
since most of life is much physical chores
therefore I rest on vacations
and keep quiet and to myself
and do computer work
or nightly read articles in bed.
No, I havenÕt had any cash or much of any money since 2007.
2. Yes, I have more benign thyroid tumors
(What a true disappointment)
3. Simply, IÕm ŅimmatureÓ about first taking care of myself.
Born in Costa Rica in 1977
And as a little girl
I was always taught
to
first
take care of others in the village
then the village would in turn take care of each other
especially women and children
4. In Costa Rica the overall middle class doesnÕt starve
And thereÕs equal distribution of
Socialist programs and tax revenue
5. Whenever IÕm continually
hungry or possibly annoyed to bear witness to
harsh or unjustified criticism
or bullying or undermining or belittling
or berating or oppression or socio-economic injustice
or social engineering against civilians and citizens
Then I get annoyed with continual disrespect
In 20 years, 7 verbal altercations
Against racism and discrimination and blatant lies
Did take place
Factually occurred out of my mouth
And I lost my temper and gave heated lectures.
Human error.
6. Lie #11: No, I havenÕt ever made a bowel movement
into my hands and
flung it at anyone much less the neighbors. Ha.
Please. I made up verbal lie #11 as of early May 2017
to spiritually test 7 people.
Goodness me. Gracious me.
Can one actually see me fling my own bowel movement? Nope.
7. No, I havenÕt ever punched anyone
No, I havenÕt ever murdered anyone nor do I know how to
Yes, once, I threatened to kill, however, I know better
I love.
Always from a place of tough love.
No, I donÕt hold grudges.
Simply, I self preserve the best way I know how to.
Hide. Laugh. Work. Peacefully live. Read.
8. The Maya donÕt commit suicide.
Death comes to us all soon enough.
9. At a young age, I
Developed a bad
disposition
Toward modern violence and racism
And control over womenÕs reproductive rights
And personal attacks against oneÕs own person
And I firmly stand against male chauvinism
And a brutal dusty and outdated police state force
And sexual harassment
And male economic control over resources and finances
And lack of same pay for same work
10. After five months
of calm and
quiet
I prove I am a fully equipped
Sane mature adult woman with rights
Who keeps quiet with my family members
Since I used to be a spoiled brat
And my family allowed for me to be a brat
By being caught off guard and randomly
While in public I was called either
ŅuglyÓ or the ŅcÓ word
or the ŅnÓ word or ŅbÓ word.
Wow.
Please,
have some self respect.
10.5. Allowed to constantly cross my personal boundaries
Simply itÕs easy to criticize
the most ill mannered
family member
when poked and prodded
like a hibernating bear.
11. No, IÕm not mentally ill.
11.5. No, I donÕt appreciate being
sexually or physically or mentally or psychologically
harassed by family members
because I donÕt like being forced
to agree with perpetrators
when slights are made
Even
the slightest French kiss by a relative
Or the slightest physical attack
is enough to make the stomach turn
12. Simply, defensive when abused
or personally attacked about physical attributes
or love withheld
when itÕs difficult to control me as a modern woman
who constantly seeks out fairness, justice and humanity.
13. My current legal partner and I separated bedrooms
March of 2015.
My legal current partner moved to the basement.
Fall of 2015 we once again shared the same bedroom.
Simply, for womenÕs health:
From fall 2015,
My current legal partner
And I shared the same bedroom
Until the end of May 2017
From July 2013 through January 2017
We did our best to be sexual
However, our dog continually jumped on top of us
WeÕd have to stop to put the dog out of the room
Even though the dog
whined and cried through the closed door
Life happens
Respectful sexual relations between adults
while children live at home
must be nearly impossible.
14. My current legal partner and I broke up April of 2016.
15. One must not speak ill of the dead. Ha.
16. Yes, IÕm instructed to stay in overpriced Twin Cities
Yours Truly;
Gabriel
