About this user
I am 51 years old. Single mom, and happy to stay that way. I love animals, especially my 2 pugs, they are my obsession. Gaining higher education at the moment. Thanksgiving and Christmas are my two favorite times of year. I enjoy cooking immensely! I recently wrote a cookbook for my family and friends.
I have no desire to get old. I'm 51 going on 25. I've now stopped having birthdays. I have now decided that at every birthday, I am going to go backwards and become a year younger.

****************************************************
Do not judge people unless you have walked a mile in their shoes.
They may be hurting for reasons beyond what you know about them.
Allow people to be who they are... they may be able to teach you something.
You may be able to teach them something, too.
If you have lived with violence, don't take it with you into your future. It will end up eating you alive. For nothing. Try to let it go as best you can.
Allow yourself to see through someone else's eyes. You may be surprised at what you see.
If someone you know is living with depression, never say "get over it". You may be doing them more damage than they already live with. Simply listen. Let them know you're there for them.
If you can't listen without judging, you're probably not a real friend, anyway.
If you are a man who hits women, shame on you. You are probably beating down the one person who loves you most in the world. And then you'll eventually lose her.
If you are an abuser in any way, chances are, you've been abused yourself. Why would you want someone else to feel the way that YOU felt when it was happening to YOU?
Love brings love. Hatred brews hatred and nothing good can come of it.
Learn to forgive those who have hurt you. If you can't forgive, you'll never be able to forgive yourself, the most important person of all.
Talk to that person. If the outcome isn't what you need, then let that person go. It's important, as a person, to rid yourself of toxins.
If someone you loved more than life has died, allow them to visit you in your dreams. It's how that person will stay connected to you. They miss you as much as you miss them.
Accept yourself just the way you are. Nobody's perfect. With self acceptance comes self love.
You have to love yourself first in order that others will love you.
Walk up to a stranger today and everyday. Tell them something good about themselves.."you look beautiful in that outfit... I love your hair." Make someone's day.
Allow your children to be children. Take your child to an event that he or she really wants to go to, even though you don't. Even though you don't want to be there, act like you're enjoying it just as much as they are. You just made that little kid really happy today.
Live your whole life as if today is the last day. Tomorrow may be the last day you see.
Copy and paste this on your page for all the world to see. We need for mankind to be more human than they are.

Cooking, living with my 2 pugs. Love heavy metal -- Ozzy, Joe Stump, Yngwie Malmsteen, Joe Satriani, Love all kinds of music, actually. Depends on my mood. I also love jazz, new age. I like to sew and do needlework, although I don't have any time for that right now. My greatest desire is to be 25 years old again. My biggest and greatest interest is to help any woman I can to escape abusive relationships. I despise abusive men. There is no excuse for abuse.
