Kick Start Me

Things have been difficult.

At work there is this person who is going out of her way to make my boss and I miserable she sometimes says just the meanest things possible. Just to hurt us, so we will give up and give her whatever she wants.

And sometimes this has happened in my personal life lately.

What I have learned about this:

  • If someone treats you terrible so you will do whatever it is they want you to. Don't give in just for the purpose of them being nice to you. Those types of people are childish, and they will hurt you again the next time you differ on things. 
  • I wish we lived in a world where everyone told the truth, and people were nice and loving, because they were nice, and loved you. However, from what I've seen, it's not the case. 
  • The only way to break this terrible downfall is to be nice and loving. Even if they are not. 

  • Sometimes you have to let your heart break, and allow the source of the pain to walk away. 

At the end of the day those who truly love you will stay. Those who will truly be nice to you, will always be nice. And lose you don't, won't be any of the above. And that's just the cold hard truth. So find people who love you for you and the people who are kind because they are. Those with agendas will always break your heart. Those who use you will continue to use you. 

I had to break the habit, it hurts (don't get me wrong it hurts like hell) but I'm still standing, and I call that a win! And you should too. Because at the end of the day if you are standing, willing to take another step, it's winning. So keep winning. 

Here's the song of the post. 
Every day I have to remind myself of my value. Each of us should. 
YOU should too! 

Loves, 
Shay!

    Shay, I am so very grateful for your words. Even when they are just telling your feelings and sometimes your fears they are honest and true.
    I am glad to have you as my dear friend. Its very true that we all need to give love and be able to continue to care and offer service even when sometimes it feels pointless or that no one else cares.

    I appreciate you and you are very valued in my life.

    Love Leisha Anne

Your "Thoughts and Prayers" Are Bullshit.

Yes. I said it. I also thoroughly agree with that statement. Here's why. As I've been going through pretty huge and life-changing medical problems, my family has been physically nowhere near me. Granted my intestine decided to swell up in Saskatoon, which isn't convenient for anyone. It's given me so much time to think, in some scary and painful moments. Let me preface this by saying I'm not a religious person,  However from what I know, God, helped those in need, he didn't just pray for the sick,  he visited them, and he served them. Let's imagine that when that blind guy came to he Jesus, Jesus said, "You're in my thoughts and prayers" and then left. That story would have turned out very differently. We all do and say things in our lives almost out of habit. Like think of how many times you've said "Hey how are you?" and not actually listened for the answer. Lots, I know. I do this ALL the time, and I'm working incr...

Swing Sets

When I was a little girl, and it was recess I would run straight for the swing set. Teina, Josi, Dallin, and I would hurry our butts out to get the swings that we knew could go the highest. Then we would swing. We would jump off (sometimes get in trouble) and continue to swing. It became a place of peace for me. I never needed to worry about anything else other than pumping my legs, holding on, and letting go at the right time. I remember having major conversations on those swing sets, I remember tears, loneliness, happiness, and friendship. Lately, when I close my eyes I'm right back on that swing set, enjoying every moment of recess. Why is it that when we grow up we naturally leave the things that brought us peace and comfort as children? Why do we feel like we need something more in order to "properly" take care of our selves? Something so simple would bring such peace, and now in a time in my life where peace seems to be the last thing I can find, tod...

My Safety Blanket

When I was a baby there's pictures of me with a light pink ABC blanket that I would drag around the house, and carry with me. When I was a child I had a blanket that my grandmother made me. It was brown fuzzy on the inside, and had pound puppies on the outside. I would hide under that blanket and then I knew I was safe. I would take it on trips, I'd bring it in the car when it was cold outside. (because I didn't have heated seats. As I grew up, certain comforts were taken from me, and my blanket was MY safe place. It was my place of help and healing. When I would have bad days in high school I'd hide under that blanket. I'd pretend that as long as I didn't come out that I would be fine. When I was in college my step mom made me a fuzzy cowboys blanket that I've always had with me. When I'm sick, or went into the hospital this blue fuzzy blanket was with me. Shielding me from the pains I knew were about to happen. When I had my first heartbreak,...
