    “I had long since lost any illusion of being loved for who I was and now accepted, with clean conscience, flowers, flattery, and money that fed my ego and my false identity.”

    Kay don't feel that way completely, have no need of flowers or flattery but the rest... yeah, got no ego anymore either, but the rest! Kay wait, got no false identity either, just me. You know? The just awful and the, Meh, it's okay. I long since lost the illusion of being loved? Gotta say I agree with that.

    Okay this is inly a question.

    So the morning sunshine is pouring through my rear deck door. I went to pick up my water on the end table beside me, there is a cat hajr sticking out from the coaster that my water is sitting on. Normally I would not notice but the sunlight makes it glow. Freaky thing, I can make that hair move without coming close to it. Lol, I am not a witch, so with that in mind can someone tell me what is making that hair move?

    @mlnevese is totally afraid that your latent talents need to be discouraged and corked. You clearly have telekinetic powers. Static electricity? Psshhhh, never trust a Martian...

    Humans have no psychic powers. Anyone who thinks they do are delusional. Martians, of course, are completely different.

    Kay so this is a little off kilter, think it may be a law of reality though.

    Just fun. Kinda wonder if it is something a little more though. All stupid right? I literally can not stop my body from moving when I hear some songs, would probably be easier to stop the tides. Lol, just a little too old and too much of a cow to move like them but I swear to you it is no different.

    Kinda feel like it is taking advantage of the female psychie to be honest. I mean, all fair right, many guys have triggers as well and we are never shy to call them out. Anyway, just a bit of fun.

    Men know life too early. Women know life too late. That is the difference between men and women.

    Oscar Wilde

    Man is always looking for someone to boast to; woman is always looking for a shoulder to put her head on.

    My friend just texted me. Didn't know if I should edit or not, believe it needs enough to cover its own post...

    The little girls feet at 2:10 proves my point exactly. Ever been where you you could not control your own body? Um.... yeah, not that. Would someone please tell me I am not mental?

    "Anne, I don't want to live. . . . Now listen, life is lovely, but I Can't Live It. I can't even explain. I know how silly it sounds . . . but if you knew how it Felt. To be alive, yes, alive, but not be able to live it. Ay that's the rub. I am like a stone that lives . . . locked outside of all that's real. . . . Anne, do you know of such things, can you hear???? I wish, or think I wish, that I were dying of something for then I could be brave, but to be not dying, and yet . . . and yet to [be] behind a wall, watching everyone fit in where I can't, to talk behind a gray foggy wall, to live but to not reach or to reach wrong . . . to do it all wrong . . . believe me, (can you?) . . . what's wrong. I'm not a part. I'm not a member. I'm frozen.”

    Anne Sexton

    Edited: One sentence is probably inappropriate so I removed it.
