Open Message

Lately, politics have consumed my life to points of obsession and unhealthiness, in which it has affected me because I let it affect me. Moreover, I blame myself for doing so. However, when writing this message, courtesy of the UltraViolet Action website, I felt a release of frustration and anger that was necessitated by this recent election and my pent up feelings that I had repressed for so long. Apparently my message will be posted on a postcard that will be sent to Speaker Ryan in five days. Well, I feel that he may not read the message, but I felt validated enough to write it.

Just to mention, I am not a political expert or commentator, nor will I ever be confident to do so because I do not have the confidence and tenacity, as do those who succeed at it. Anyway, I know that I might receive backlash and criticism for this post, but I am sure that with the opinions on social media, this post may not present as much of an impact. In which, I admire people who are able to feel liberated enough to share their political opinions in these critical and trying days.

The message will be posted below. Just a side note, I apologize for grammar, punctuation and syntax errors. I should know better considering I graduated with a Bachelor's emphasized in Mass Communications in May 2011. 😝

Speaker Ryan:

Please note: I have taken valuable time from the weekend to edit and type this message while trying to compose my anger in a respectful manner. Therefore, yes, my frustration and anger has escalated through the roof, but I digress.

Please take a few moments from your busy schedule to listen to the American people. It is refreshing to see that some of congressional constituents, (Respectively, Democrats and a few brave Republicans), who listen to Americans -- and please take note of those who practice these examples. I have tried to believe that you and some members of congress will do the right thing -- although I respectfully disagree with your opinions on policies -- to exercise good morals for Americans, but I have lost too much hope from you to regain my trust. Thanks!

Just a closing statement: And yes, I feel indefinitely livid by corporations, foreign countries and lobbyists controlling US primary and presidential elections to influence one political party to win, and that morally betrays the American people.

The Inevitable -- Original Poem

It was meant to happen Someone or something unexpected  It interrupts you, discourages you It was meant to happen It has changed you, your life It has made you live for more Someone or something that was meant for you You yearn to know the reason But it remains unknown, hidden It was meant to happen It confuses you, frustrated you It has angered you, enticed you Made you feel defeated But you never gave up You strived to learn more You remained persistent, never gave up It was meant to happen Someone or something unexpected has occurred to you Don't let it go You will know it soon enough It was the inevitable

Be You: Know What You Are and Proclaim It

Self-worth : A feeling that you are a good person who deserves to be treated with respect. (Merriam-Webster Dictionary) Some of us may wonder when we will ascertain our purpose , or what thing(s) give(s) us a purpose . It is often a ruminating question that circulates in many minds on a continual basis; whereas, it is something that we have to cope by whenever it happens to us. Often times we think about whether we can feel comfortable enough to feel happy with ourselves and to present it to other people who need it the most. Whenever we can achieve goals of true inner-peace and contentment within ourselves and exude it is when we share it. Do not let other people determine you because you matter as well; you matter so much that many other people want you to, too. Know your worth , your value , your existence , your being ; you’re being is something that takes precedence , regardless of discouragement , adversity or whatnot comes in between you and it. Feel it, be it, realize i...

Assimilate

While I am ruminating through thoughts on a topic, I stumbled upon a "word of the day" post idea. So, in turn, I will try this and see how it works. Well, whenever I think of assimilation I think of adjusting or understanding something(s) to a full extent. It may sound like a stretch but hope it works. Definition here: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/assimilate Whenever we assimilate, it makes us think of how we must adjust to changes that either affect or transcend into our routines or norms. The norms or routines may be something we are used to, or we look to acclimate to something that is new that we want to set as a routine. Perhaps, assimilation is not a bad thing because what it could do is shape how we confront issues, the ones that we may dislike to a full degree. Additionally, it could shape a new level of maturity for us; to develop a new mindset of how to resolve issues or problems that seem unpleasant. One thing may be certain is that assimilation...
