Brazil, Life and Perserverence!!!
Saturday brought extreme highs and lows. My mother isn’t happy with me going out with someone. I believe it’s a mix of jealousy, selfishness, and her sociopathic tendencies. I’ve brought out a dark side in her since I started seeing Julie. Things were good and reasonably stable until I had a female friend, and it’s starting to impact my mental […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 11 degrees, chilly, grey, and overcast with showers. It’s grey and miserable but not too cold. It is Friday, so it should have been a simpler day, and it was. One class in the morning, a couple in the late afternoon, and one at 9:00 p.m. Between the classes, posting a blog, journal writing, coffees and teas […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 13 degrees, chilly, grey, dark and rain is promised. I’m not sure if I wrote this yesterday so that I might be repeating myself a bit, but it’s interesting how we often relax and don’t expect things to happen, yet when we plan and push the situation, it doesn’t always turn out as we want or expect. […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 11 degrees, chilly, grey, and miserable. It is remarkable how our lives can change from water to wine in a day, an hour, or even a minute. Life can knock us down and then lift us up again immediately. Over the last month, I have been thinking, imagining, and even obsessing about this beautiful, little, perfect woman. […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 10 degrees, grey, damp, cold and shitty. Today has been a mixed day. It has been good because work has gone well. I have a new pupil, everyone is paying me on time, and my crypto investment is soaring. I can’t say the same for my Tesla shares; they are 30% down since I bought them. I […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 7 degrees, cold, grey and rainy. Monday, the first day of a new week, it is pouring with rain here in England. I have, over the past three or four months, grown slightly accustomed to it, but there are times when it really does get you down. The truth is, I’m feeling low; I’m going through a […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 8 degrees, cold, grey and about to rain. It’s Mother’s Day, and the weather is very rainy, cold, and miserable. Since I had bought flowers for my mother on Friday for her birthday, buying them again would be a bit repetitive, so the day before, I purchased a Mother’s Day card and one of those surprise Amazon […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 6 degrees, bitterly cold, grey and overcast. Unfortunately, or fortunately, today has been a day of revelation, shock and a slight disappointment. During the day, I did my everyday things: writing, shopping for my mother, exercising, feeding the swans and ducks, walking, and visiting the two cafes in the village. In the early afternoon, I shaved, cut […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 6 degrees, bitterly cold and grey. It is my mother’s birthday, and I must be a good son and do the right thing. As I have always said, my mother was, is, and has always been a difficult person. Perhaps, in the last 20 years alone, she has paid her debt to society and the family. I […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 6 degrees, bitterly cold but sunny and slightly overcast. Each day, this little woman is becoming more and more present in my life. I am trying to stop myself from being too involved, but she’s invading my heart. When I came to England, I hadn’t thought of getting involved or looking for somebody while staying here, not […]
