The Failed Me Too Movement

Image
The “Me Too” movement has lost its way. The “Me Too” movement that once protected victims of assault has sadly become nothing more than a modern day witch-hunt. One cannot even hug, pat an individual on the back, or ask someone out on a date, without fearing that they themselves may be accused of sexual misconduct. Which seems to be an ongoing theme in society today. The U.S. being the primary country where this has become a common everyday occurrence.  Heaven help anyone who is accused of such behavior. These now blacklisted individuals sued for their entire life-savings in a one-sided court case. Their lives forever ruined. Finding themselves suddenly unemployed, their families torn apart, and facing possible incarceration. All because an attention starved individual wants their 15 minutes of fame. It’s completely heartbreaking!  In a few cases, no real proof ever being presented to the judge or jury. And in other cases, judges are presented with undeniable proof of innocenc...

The Evil Eye

Image
The evil eye protection charm is a blue talisman that is round in shape, typically made of glass. The talisman contains an outer dark blue circle, an inner white circle, followed by an innermost light blue circle with a black dot (as in the eye’s pupil) painted on it. It is a protection charm that an individual wears, or carries, to protect themselves from any and all unwanted danger and/or evil spirits. Legend says the evil eye protective charm calls upon an otherworldly presence that reflects any malicious and vengeful glares/curses from a spiteful individual. The spiteful person believing that an innocent person (the victim of the curse) somehow wronged them, and so wishes harm towards that innocent individual.  The evil eye talisman (or charm) was created to protect someone from this evil eye curse. Even though these protective charms are also referred to as "evil eyes", their purpose is to protect the bearer, not harm. Another popular talisman is the Hamsa (also depictin...

A Land Of Opportunity

Image
America is the land of opportunity, the most free country on earth. A place where everyone has the opportunity to better themselves and accomplish their dreams, no matter where they come from. A country so free that any individual, no matter their ethnicity, can be anything. A country where any ethnicity can become doctors, lawyers, police officers, judges, and congress/senate officials. There are individuals of every single ethnicity who are singers, musicians, and movie stars, living in million dollar homes.  The simple fact is, whether we succeed or fail in life all depends on the choices that we make. No one in this world owes you anything. If you want a better life, then make it happen. I’ve known several people over the years that overcame every obstacle in their path, including growing up dirt poor, to achieve their dreams. Anything is possible if you work hard and never settle for less than what you deserve. Morgan Simianer, American cheerleader and tv personality, is proof...

Breast Cancer Awareness 2020

Image
Approximately 1 in 8 women, in the course of their lifetime, will develop invasive breast cancer. In 2020, doctors have estimated 276,480 new cases of diagnosed invasive breast cancer in women, in the United States alone. Approximately 2,620 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed in men in 2020. That doesn’t even include the 48,530 new cases of non-invasive (in situ) breast cancer, something that affects both men and women. A man’s lifetime risk of breast cancer is about 1 in 883. About 42,170 women in the U.S. are expected to die from breast cancer this year.  Around the summer of 2018, I went for my very first mammogram, where they discovered two lumps in my breasts. One in my right and one in my left. Knowing that cancer runs in my family, I was obviously terrified. Both my mother and my aunt died from cancer. Both of them wasting away before their loved ones' eyes.  I was told by my doctor that she found two medium sized cysts. I was then told abo...

Souls, Spirits, & Ghosts

Image
The soul is described as the cosmic liquid of life that fills the vessel (body) and gives us life. Souls, ghosts, and spirits, are basically, all the same thing. Though, I’m sure someone somewhere may disagree with that. Webster’s dictionary defines souls as “the spiritual or immaterial part of a human being or animal, regarded as immortal.” Spirit is defined as “the nonphysical part of a person that is the seat of emotions and character; the soul.” Ghosts are defined as “an apparition of a dead person that is believed to appear or become manifest to the living,” typically as a translucent image. But the words (souls, spirits, and ghosts) are often interchangeable in everyday conversation. Whatever you choose to call them, they are often reported as a transparent apparition, and in some cases as solid as any living person. Often the spirit is wearing clothing from the time and place when they were alive. Different types of spirits also include spirit guides, poltergeists, Will of the W...

Control And Manipulation

Image
There are many different types of abuse, including physical, emotional (or mental), and verbal. Then there are those who seek their power, or enjoyment, from controlling and/or manipulating a person. Control and manipulation are also forms of abuse. And just like emotional and verbal abuse, being controlled or manipulated by another person leaves deep emotional scarring that never fully heals. None of these are acceptable behavior towards another living soul.  Controlling, abusive, and manipulative individuals never seem to question themselves or their actions. These abusers never bother to take the time to stop and wonder if they themselves are the problem. Instead, they simply choose to believe the fault lies with someone else. Always placing the blame on anyone and anything, never accepting any responsibility for their actions. They use their friends and family members for their own personal gain, and in return they needlessly complain that no one has ever done anything for them...

Multiple Souls Theory

Image
What happens when two souls are reincarnated into a single solitary body? First, it is imperative to understand the concept of souls. The definition of a soul is the spiritual part of a human being regarded as immortal. The soul is what gives the body life. The soul is the cosmic liquid that fills the empty vessel that is our body. Without one, we wouldn’t be alive. Second, it is important to understand what reincarnation is and how it works. Reincarnation is the belief that our souls are reborn over and over again until we finish our unfinished business here on earth. Whether that business is fixing a past mistake or learning a valuable lesson. There can be many reasons for a soul to be reincarnated. There have been several television series and movies that demonstrate this idea as a real possibility. Two such movies include the films  My Soul To Take  and  The Ward . Both movies represent the idea that the body can house multiple souls simultaneously, often without the ...
