I've been a woman of little words of late so apologies for my absence. In truth I've had a good few days off work and yet I feel anything but reinvigorated. Perhaps I can lay blame to last weeks insane levels of humidity, followed by the dry, sticky heat of Monday. We all know I do not cope well in the heat. Or maybe it has more to do with the string of vile humans who've crossed my path and brought with them an encumbrance of putrid negativity. One whole week of pointed evil eyes, superiority, animosity, crudeness and repugnant irascible individuals. Some people can deplete the best of us. And why? I'll never quite comprehend how effortless it is for some to direct blunt resentment and fury towards a stranger. Is it because they believe we shan't cross paths again? Or because they feel like such efforts result sans consequence? Are they not familiar with the term Karma?
Well, with tomorrow's forecast of rain and glorious thunderstorms, I do hope some vitality will be restored.
xoxo

DeleteOh yes I am a big believer in karma! Hope that you do feel better after a big storm - I always find storms relaxing (provided I'm safe at home and the car is undercover!) and it often does bring a much needed cool change along with it!

I do find it relaxing. Though if I'm out and I know my fur baby is alone, that tends to stress me out xx
DeleteIt's always nice to take a break from social media/blogging. I always feel re-energized and more motivated afterwards! Glad you're back to writing more :)

DeleteDo not let it face it ignore the negative and focus on the positive I know is not easy but is a way to smile.
ReplyDeleteI hear you, Sonia :( There are just some people who really make you doubt about the state of humanity nowadays....Sending you some good vibes.

It's really the worst when the negativity of others saps your energy. Things can only get better right and here's hoping they do. And yes let karma get em ;p

I feel very identified with that. Negativity can really suck our energy, specially when we try hard not to be so criticized by bitter people. I hope your week will improve.

Thank you for sharing so much of your true thoughts and feelings with us my dear blogger friend. You are such a genuine, lovely, and positive person and it really translates through your prose. Keep being you and for the strangers out there doing it wrong, have compassion for them. They do not have the depth you do.. It is a beautiful and very rare trait ;)

I find your blog and photos today very inspiring so keep on writing. I don't know why people have to be negative and vile, it takes so much energy! Rise above it! Have a great weekend
ReplyDeleteHttp://Leftbankgirl.blogspot.com
Thanks for the advice lovely, music can really lift moods xx
DeleteIt's like I mentioned on my blog, some people are just vile and don't care about the venom they spew upon others. Sometimes they will, though. I'm guilty of being a bit short/rude with a total stranger, and feeling horrible about it later (and then even worse, because I knew I'd never have the chance to apologize). It's like you said on my post - sometimes people are fighting invisible battles & they are at their breaking point. We just never know. But don't worry about them! Shake it off and keep your happy, and don't let them take it!
ReplyDeleteZ · HELLOZAUNI.COM
I find it incredibly difficult to imagine you to be as vile as the lady who flipped me off while spitting obscenities through her car window because I wouldn't reverse my car on a main road (I had cars behind me too) just so she could maneuver her large vehicle to cut traffic. Urgh. xx

I'm sorry to hear you haven't been feeling too well lately! Strangers who are rude are always so irritating, but I'm a strong believer in karma, so I think it'll all be even in the end. I hope next week is much better - especially since we're nearing the holidays!

These people are violent against their women, now they want to impose their way of thinking on us. Sometimes, however, I wonder if the the real reason of all that is always money, in this case... oil.

some people can't deal with their own messed up lives and think that if they spread the hatred maybe they'd feel better. it's a sad truth.. probably also one of the reason we love reality tv so much.. it makes us feel better about ourselves.
ReplyDeletehope your week is better.
Thanks Hena and what an interesting point you make about reality TV xx
DeleteOh no! I'm so sorry to hear about the terrible folks who have crossed your path. I'm also left speechless when I meet people who seem to just thrive off of being vile and hurtful for no good reason. Hopefully some balance will be restored in the coming days, and you can be left feeling rested and re-energized!
