Used

...can't shake the feeling that I've been used by so many.  I used to think my good karma would still take care of me, that God was keeping score and had my back, but with lying demons changing things and always rewriting history to their liking, its hard to say if the good people of the world, like myself, are just being used and abused in the process.  I've always owned up to my mistakes.  I only want communication to see problems through.  But many times it involves both parties seeing their mistakes, and so many times lately it often feels like I'm the only one wanting that two way, thorough, communication.  There are so many haters.  I'm trying so hard to avoid them and stay positive.  I'm finding that if I stay on this road to helping the Democrats this election, that many obstacles will try to get in the way.  My husband doesn't think I could actually have that much influence on the political spectrum.  I think his memory may have been erased a little, for him to forget how intense I can be when I channel all that frustration of the world into a healthy, worthwhile cause, all the while knowing the Republicans that surround me will not be okay with it.  They just all want me to be neutral and not make any waves, stay out of politics.  Well, I've waited my whole life quietly on the sidelines being neutral.  Its time for me to get more involved now.   I spent my time since the election finding a common ground, mother earth, planting trees and saving the ocean, something we can all agree on.  Now, its time for me to help volunteer for the Democrats and Independents.  The Republicans can have their four years but not eight.

    Sorry, doesn't change my feeling about anything baseball related.

    Nor me, about Mrs. R. I'm a sucker for S & G.

    I'd say the onus shouldn't be limited to men; it's unfair to the decent ones - and there are many. It's incumbent upon the women as well.

    All should do as they can to educate and set an example.

    Sick fucks come in all sizes.

    (and still, I have faith in the kindness of most people. It's not about making (fabricating?) hope, for me. It's about just having it - and not fooling myself in the process.)

    Am I the only one who thinks that the family is pretty damn stupid to be sending their teenaged daughter off alone on vacation with an adult man who isn't related to her? I don't care how close a friend he was. That is a weird thing to do or to allow.
