As I continue to heal, I have lots of questions, and the one burning question I had for my shrink last week, “It’s not a narcissist fault that they are a narcissist, any more than it is my fault for my wounds. So why do we have to block, cut them off, fence ourselves inContinue reading “Take Responsibility”

Quit Watering Weeds
On average, I get 10-15 calls/texts from spam, robocalls & time wasters. I block them as soon as I see the missed call/text. I don’t want them in my phone or taking up space in my life. Shout out to the person that invented “block”, the best thing ever invented. That “block” prevents triggers, allowsContinue reading “Quit Watering Weeds”
Boundaries With Family
The most common conversation I have with friends is “boundaries” or lack of should I say. I’ve had conversations in recent weeks and I hear the same thing, it’s a family member not respecting my friend’s boundaries. That’s the question, why do we have such difficulty holding our boundaries with family? These people in ourContinue reading “Boundaries With Family”
Dropped Off At A Doorstep
Sunday I was watching church online. Bishop prayed for a man that had lost his child. As Bishop prayed for the man, he broke down and cried, his cry was painful to hear. You could hear the pain, the hurt in his voice as he almost screamed through his tears. I was so touched andContinue reading “Dropped Off At A Doorstep”
I’m a Sinner and I Like It That Way
“I’m a sinner and I like it that way.” That’s a quote I don’t hear directly but I hear it indirectly almost daily. Somewhere along the way the “church” and the “Christians” have set precedence to our society that if you do blah blah blah then you are NOT a Christian and if you doContinue reading “I’m a Sinner and I Like It That Way”
The Truest Words Spoken
The truest words that were ever spoken. My narcissist mother passed in 2019 and she never changed. She got better but that was due to her aging and her health declining. Sadly, some people cannot love us how we need to be loved and some people are just not capable. It’s the pint-size vs theContinue reading “The Truest Words Spoken”

Those that want to destroy your power, your happiness, your path to your purpose, passions and gifts to help others are one of the following: They are your Constituents: They are your Comrades : They can be a Constituent, Comrade, or a narcissist parent/relationship. Narcissists are insecure and they often are jealous of their childrenContinue reading “The Destroyers”
A Survivor’s Quote
I’ve seen this quote twice this week. I read it and think it must’ve been written by a narcissist survivor. It clearly depicts that someone at least got exposed. My narcissists would say “Sorry” quite a bit but there was never an action that followed the word. Sure there might be make-up gifts or timeContinue reading “A Survivor’s Quote”
Judging in Nashville
Tonight I had dinner in Nashville. I sprinted from my hairdressers to the nearest restaurant/bar to watch the World Series. I came in a few minutes after the game started. Within minutes of sitting at an upscale bar, I was judged on where I lived, for my drink preference, and before the night was over,Continue reading “Judging in Nashville”
The Land of “Why?”
Have you ever been to the land of “Why?” It’s an awful place. I used to live there. The people in the land of “Why?” are called “Wanderers”. They ask a lot of questions. They want to know a lot of stuff. When I lived there I’d asked “Why?” a lot too. I wanted toContinue reading “The Land of “Why?””
