GUILT Plain and simple.

Once there was this guy who went by the name Tom.  He lived a simple life and he had no desire to change and did not see any need to.  He woke early every morning, drank coffee, smoked his cigarettes and  went to work.  After work was the usual schedule for Tom, he would clock out, go grab a sixer at the store by the stop and head home.  On a good day he would  go meet his friends at the local pub and toss back a few, talk bullshit, trade and try to hit on the girls who walked in. The girls ignore the intoxicated group, all in their mid thirties, but look much older still blaming it on their exes, avoiding the truth that their life is the real reason.   With each shot they become more stronger, better looking, smarter and richer, in their own minds.   The music drones on, Tom and his buddies drink until happy hour is over.  Drunkenly dispersing for  home, each in his own direction. Tom with trade goods in hand heads to the inner city to do his dirty deeds.

Sitting on the dock of the Bay

A proud man boasts and brags 

Pushing aside his own

Ignoring those underfoot

Sitting on his thorny throne

Tossing roses to the wrong feet

He will die alone

For him

Tears fall no more

Except from the sky above

Only a mother cries

For the child she once did love

One of my Dreams

2004 spring Dream

This dream has had me puzzled....

I'm on a ledge of big building, walking.  The  ledge's width is broad enough for me to safely face forward.  I can smell the grass, trees and flowers surrounding the building I am walking around.   It is so beautiful and I enjoy ALL the wonderful nature greeting me.   The butterflies and dragonflies are following me.  The bees buzz around me, they're happy, and I KNOW this, it is their singing.   

I look over the ledge and see the dew on the grass below, for the ledge is about 4 feet from the ground.  But I stay on the ledge walking and watching the sunrise. I come upon the tree nearest the building,  a little brown snake slithers onto my path on ledge.  It is blocking my way, I look to the tree for a branch to jump to, but instead, I see the large white and yellow snake.  It is a giant compared to the little snake, but I know it is a she...

It is sitting on the closest branches, the ones I need to escape the other snake. 

I look at both snakes and am frightened, 

for the first time in my dream..

Then I wake.....

CAN U HEAR ME NOW?

I wanted to make things better, help educate, show that math is easy, reading is fun and writing  can be a great escape when needed.  I wanted to do so much to show what I seen and learned.  But something along the way went askew.  Not my dream, not my desire, but something was slowly killing the glow that existed in the people. 

 I have been going about this all wrong.  I wanted to work for the people, and I believed I was at first.  I thought working from within was the best way to make changes.  Oh how I was wrong!   I was working for the TRIBE, not my people, and that was not my dream, my goal and hearts desire.  

After much thought,  I see

I learned, and I am here now to work from the OUTSIDE, for my people to make sure the RIGHT CHANGES are implemented!

  CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW Tulalip B.O.D.?

It is best to read this and remember freedom of speech.

Unite to help stop the injustice!

Does surveillance video of George Zimmerman in police custody on the night of Trayvon Martin's death contradict claims that he was beaten and bloodied during an altercation with the Florida teen? NBC's Ron Allen reports.

When will people stop the hatred? When will people see past the color and only see the aura....

Down we go!

Walk your Talk or get to Stepping

In the past 9 months I have lost 20-25 pounds. Some women would be elated, but not me. I struggle to keep myself up past 125 and so far I have been unsuccessful. I am now at a whopping 105 dressed and with my clothes and my boots on.

What caused this weight loss? Speculation would lead to stress, brought on by my environment. Not good...
Close to eight years ago a doctor told me I had to quit my job if I wanted to live. At the time I worked for our casino, graveyard shift as a slot technician. It was fun despite the intertribal politics and lateral violence. It was the hours, lack of proper sleep and poor eating habits. It was too easy to order meals to go every night, from the different restaurants in Tulalip resort. My kids loved the food, but it wasn't good for them either. I tried to work elsewhere in the casino, but it is territorial, and they are my people! They sent me termination notices, wouldn't allow me qualified medical leave, even though fibromyalgia is an certified disability. The end result was my being "released".. .
So, if this isn't a good place for me and is causing me to waste away, then I have to leave.

This bullying is not healthy, the so called leaders, they talk the talk but they do not walk the talk.

Let me tell you, you learn who your friends are and these people were and are not my friends. those who call themselves my family aren't. I know who my friends are and I love them all.



Kisses and Smooches to all of you ! You know who you are,

Are We Ready for The Truth?

Most people would like to believe that they seek the truth and that they possess the integrity to make it matter. That is MOST people; however coexisting are those that fear the truth, and what it will bring. They are the people in denial mode, protecting what they know and their way of doing it. They say they represent the truth, but really what they are doing is destroying the truth, so no one will seek it. Who are these people?
I have seen this community take leaps and bounds forward, in the management of our businesses and our investments. But in the past year we have taken ten steps back. Who is afraid now?

Don Cornelius Death     February 1, 2012

"Soul Train" creator Don Cornelius has died of a gunshot wound to the head at age 75.

Police found Don Cornelius inside his Sherman Oaks mansion in the 12000 block of Mulholland Drive.

"The death was reported as a suicide," said L.A. coroner's Assistant Chief Ed Winter.
 

The alleged "suicide" took place two years plus days after the policies were signed, leading to suspicion. 
Cornelius leqves behind two children , however the ex-wife is the sole beneficiary on his life insurance policies.
Victoria Avila aka Viktoria Chapman aka Viktoria Cornelius, will now be a much wealthier Russian model.

LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE!!!!

If you are familiar with this then you must have : 
a.   Sang it to another child who had lied, or
b.   had it sang to you.

 It has been around and circled many times over.  What I want to know is,

What makes people lie? 

There is a difference between a fib and lie.  Yes, the fib is a lie, but it is one that is done to not hurt someone and once told it does not impact anyone else. 
 (for example:   "does this dress make me look fat?")

SEE.....

OMG there is a sequel?!!!

A Sociopath

A sociopath is typically defined as someone who lies incessantly to get their way with little concern for others.  They tend to have little regard or respect for the rights and feelings of others, often charming, charismatic and manipulative.

Compulsive Liar

A compulsive liar is defined as someone who lies out of habit. Lying is their normal and reflexive way of responding to questions. Compulsive lying is usually thought to develop in early childhood, due to being placed in an environment where lying was necessary.

Some common feelings after telling a fib, is usually some remorse, but the compulsive liars are unrepentant for their actions. 
Just like any habit (bad or not), once you begin, you become content and continue.

What, Why and How???

Here are some more symptoms of compulsive liars that may not be as straightforward.

• Low self-esteem: This is a characteristic of most people with a compulsive lying disorder.
• Other negative personality traits: Watch for narcissistic, manipulative behavior and/or inappropriate emotions and impulsive reactions.
• Addictions: People with addictions to gambling, alcohol, drugs or other activities also are much more likely to lie compulsively.
• Bipolar Disorder: Impulsive behavior is common during this period, and it becomes easier to tell a lie than face reality.
• Inability to face reality: Even when confronted a compulsive liar will never admit the truth.

What causes compulsive lying?

• Because they behave badly but want to still ‘look good’
• To genuinely save someone else’s feelings.  
• To control other people.
• For self-aggrandizement.  
• Through sheer force of habit - “Lying is as easy as breathing for me!”

STOP  the lies!

Step 1: “To thine own self be true” - regardless of what others are doing

You know what is honest, so be honest regardless of a dishonest group-think culture - don’t hide behind the excuse of widespread lying.

Step  2:  Remember the truth is often easier

Cast off lying and you’ll find life instantly becomes much less stressful.

Step 3: Know what lying is

Don’t make excuses to yourself. Not telling the truth, when you know what it is, is lying.

Don't like my answer, then don't ask me

Some people will avoid the truth to no end. 

Their "world" is how they want it, any deviation upsets their balance.  You see them, yes you do, they are the ones, seeking approval, praise and confirmation at every turn.  Now I believe in a "great job!" or a  "way to go!" to help boost a team member, when the job deserves it.  However, if a person doesn't admit to err, their chance to learn is non existant because the corrective action is part of the learning process. 

So if you want to hear the truth, ask me.

Fool me once, Shame on YOU! Fool me twice Shame on ....

There are those that really think only the best of people.  They continuously give, give, give and when it is their turn to get anything, the jealous ones step up to the plate to hit the batter.  Knocking them out of the game.  Everyone knows what I am talking about.  IT comes in many levels.  I seen it all the way at the so called "top".  If you are wondering if this is about you, congratulations, you fingered yourself out as a insecure, unintelligent and conniving individual!  (Best bet go back and take English 101, 102 and Psychology 105, p-u-l-l-l-l-e-a-s-e!)

If you have no idea, well then keep reading you might learn what to avoid!

Resolutions......

 

 

res·o·lu·tion  noun 

1. an expression of opinion or intention made, by an individual or an organization or other group.

2. a resolve or determination: to make a firm resolution to do something.

3. the act of resolving or determining upon an action or course of action, method, procedure, etc.

 

 Looking at Wiki

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Year's_resolution

 

When we make these promises to ourselves, are we really expecting to succeed? 

 

I like to think that each year when I promise to quit smoking, that I atleast tried, and wanted to quit.  Even though I failed, atleast I tried.   Well this year I did something different.  After all it is 2012 and the end of the Mayan calendar. 

I decided that in 2012 I did not want to have any negativity in my home.  Everyone will NOT call anyone any  bad names, nor bring home any negative attitude , in the same note though, everyone has to do their share, no "egging 'em on".  No one can just sit on the computer, be gaming or sleeping while others are working.   This sounds easy, but some people are just plain lazy. 

Some days I just look up to the ceiling or sky and say. Whose child is this anyway? 

Did they not have the role models to follow?  Is this a test ?

 

So my family is trying to play nice with each other, though it is trying and it in no way is a white flag. The  2012 goal is to have a happy home with considerate and kind family members.

 

Well it is a start and our 2012 News years Resolution!

 

Wish us luck!
