In For a Bumpy Ride


  I was going to hold off from speaking my mind about this electing a new president or now who has been elected. Anyone with a social media app or computer can voice their mind and heart. I will be honest when it came to choosing I went back and forth, a little upset that it came down to the devil we do know to the devil we don't. Many of the things I despised in Trump were oddly the very things that made me vote for him. With Clinton I never once felt she was incapable of commandeering the country but she was way too safe and vanilla. I wanted someone not afraid to say no and stop all the ass kissing that goes on.
  I had jumped off and on the Trump train so many times prior to casting my vote I was getting dizzy not to mention disenchanted. I got to listen to the concerns from people from other countries if Trump were to win at that point I was still undecided. It wasn't Hillary's  email investigations or even her very open declarations to help flood our country with refugees, it did raise my brow though. There was some of her proposals I liked.
  I really thought as election day unfolded layer by layer that Hillary would slip right on in. I did indeed vote for Trump but felt the fear of the unknown would wash over the Americans and they would elect the same old same old. I was surprised to wake up to find that Donald Trump actually won, not by a landslide but he won. The Trump deplorable gang smile and fist pump and the Clinton clackers are dope slapping their heads mumbling WTF. I don't think for minute the Trump train ride is going to be easy or comfortable for anybody but then again change is never comfortable. The good and bad news is is that by the time he gets to implement his licks and promises his four years will be up.

Swallowing an Elephant

You know that joke/riddle How do you eat an elephant? A-One bite at a time. For most that seems to be the most logical. The elephant is quite large and nobody can just pop one in their mouth but oddly enough there are people out there that want you to over tax your system trying to get one down in one bite. Apparently, there are some lucky individuals out there who can unhinge their jaw and eat an elephant in one or two tries so that sets the bar for everyone else. I am not so blessed to be able to unhinge my jaw and swallow large objects.    My capacity to learn and adapt to familiar things that need to be dusted off and new ways takes more than a day or two. I know the elephant swallowers are in high demand and get cut higher respect but I feel the nibblers are just as worthy. Patience is a skill that has been slacking both in the people who want to try to make a nibbler into a swallower and those who are observing and comparing; even the nibbler wanting to be perfect...

Breathing

When someone asks me how I am I usually respond with okay which means nothing bad or good is going on. When things aren’t so okay I reply with “I’m barely breathing” which means I’m highly stressed out over something. When I listen to meditation videos they always start out with deep breathing, at first, I thought it was kind of silly to concentrate so much on breathing. I also started to notice my breathing when I was stressed out or intensely involved in something. I have two destructive breathing patterns that take place, I either over breath or shallow breathe; sometimes I even subconsciously hold my breath. None of the three poor breathing methods make a happy functioning body. It’s funny to have to learn how to breath properly because it’s something we do automatically.    With some unknown allergies or on and off sinus issues I already face upper repertory struggles at times. When I over breath due to some hidden or not so hidden stress I notice changes in my bod...
