Most of my people know that 2025 does not come loaded with very good news, and that it will just be another year to experiment with "more" neoliberal economic packages full of bombs and nuclear rockets that benefit no one except a few, and that this is exactly how the world works, and that we are not the exception to the rule that we once were... Were we?
But that is no longer an important drama, deep down we gave them the right to do it, and to get rid of the headache that comes with worrying about our future.
It doesn't even bother me that I don't have electricity, liquefied gas to cook with, or at least what to cook.
Now I am more bothered by the bra strap that makes a deep groove in my shoulder, the fat that is accumulating in my abdomen, the fine lines that multiply on my face, the horrible fringe of gray hair, the freckles that mark my face every day. skin, or the effort I make to heal the nail on the big toe of my left foot...😑
It also bothers me that I don't have an iPhone with an iCloud account to show off the excellent cybersecurity on my cell phone.
Today all you will see is Ecuadorian chocolate.
However, there are so many things that still make me want to breathe, dance and live, that why worry about trifles, for example, when my Chloe, all anxious and prankish, tries to catch her little tail in a rapid spiral of circles that translate into infinite joys...🤩
This is my participation in the topics that this week our host Galenkp prepares us to activate our thinking and exchange some ideas.
What bothers you, and what gives you energy? Name two of each thing and explain them. Use your own photos.
Fine and delicate chocolates.
Do you really want to know what's bothering me right now?
In this new stage of my life, where I am more concerned about being comfortable than looking slim, and avoiding tight girdles because gastritis is terrible for me, it bothers me enormously:
Manipulation and lies.
These two almost always go together, and they come from a person who believes himself capable of achieving his objectives by taking advantage of the good faith of others, and in past times I may have been manipulated and deceived on many occasions without realizing it, but today, I smell it instantly.
For example, my new boss wanted to give me her quarterly reports so that I could prepare them for her because she had "other more important things to do."
Mmmm...
Maybe someone who doesn't know what their duties are does it to make the boss like them, to score some points, to show efficiency, to make themselves look good to others...I don't know, Ricky!...I just know that It's not my turn, especially if you're going to a party.
I hate feeling that I am being manipulated, and I hate people who believe they can achieve goals from behind my back..
Everything here is chocolate, even the shovel.
I detest self-sufficiency and arrogance.
I do not deny that perhaps I carry a small dose of self-sufficiency, just enough for people to perceive me as someone confident in myself, but making it clear that I am much better when I do something in community, because I do not recognize self-interest as a religion...
I remember as a child visiting my house a very large great uncle with a robust build, with a deep and strong voice that forced everyone to sit down to listen to his stories, which were about his abilities and his ability to do anything a human could do.
My God, how I hated those moments. It was as if the world stopped so the guy could be heard...and praised.
I hate people who live telling everything they have, in order to make you feel like a mouse...Does this man know that we have very similar DNA?
I have nothing against these people, I just turn my back and walk away.
Chocolates and wines?
Things that give me energy.
A trip? Money? A box of chocolates? Yes, all of this provides an incredible energy flow, but also:
The value of my effort.
A few days ago I read a post about someone who started working at the age of 13, and at first it impressed me, but then I understood that it was the best thing that could have happened to him, and even more so if he came from a humble family, because more than anything it helped him understand from a very young age the value of your effort in commercial numbers.
I also started working from the age of 12 in the field, once a year until I was 14...afterwards, it was permanent from the age of 14 to 17, working and studying, but they never put a weight in my hands because my Payment was in the form of studies...and then, I never knew the value of my labor force in national currency.
Until I undertook a private project on my own, I did not understand the great satisfaction that taking care of ourselves brings us.
Wow, that's the most energetic thing in the world.
A friend gave me his photos of this place.
My sister/my daughter.
My sister is like she was my daughter, I raised her, I bathed her, I dressed her, I scolded her, I painted her hair, her nails, I explained chemistry and mathematics to her, I took her for a walk, I told her my life, I gave her advice, we cried. together, we took photos, we went partying, and today we are the best confidants.
She gives me incredible energy every time I see her work and set practical and beautiful goals.
She is the product of her parents' dedication and effort, but also mine, and that is important for my life because she transmits incredible energies to me.
Knowing that my people are well is the best reason to feel with enough energy to continue fighting between presidential packages. So there are many things to think about apart from what may happen in 2025, but just in case I already bought a bag of charcoal to cook with.
Always very grateful for your reading.

Beyond the things that annoy like.... well.... physical stuff hahaha lying bothers me a lot, fake people, people who don't mind stepping on heads for the sake of climbing... I hope the translator says what I want hahaha
We coincide again with those things and with the ones that motivate me a little bit too, I have a brother... 5 years younger, it's a great motivation, but setting small goals and overcoming them motivates me too.
Excellent Sunday!🤗
A few days ago I was very concentrated doing some calculations at work, but the bra felt very tight, it was almost suffocating me, I took advantage of the fact that I was alone and unhooked it, I felt so relieved.... then more colleagues arrived but nothing was noticed, continue in happy life.... I'm not going to stop for a tight clasp...😄
My dad had my sister when she was older, and she is old enough to be my daughter so I almost raised her...she was always a good girl..... How those critters love each other , don't they?
I can't stand the translator, but he was good to you today . ....😂
Thanks , you're a sunshine.
🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
You have no idea how many times the translator did what he wanted, or maybe I should speak more neutral hahaha.
Have a nice day!🤗
We should launch a proposal to improve the translator's job...😄
Happy day to you little bee anyway.
🌻🌻🌻
I think it has a life of its own... imagine I have treated people who are women as men... it was him, not me!... terrible! I wanted to be swallowed by the earth!🤣
I think that what is bothering you are common things for many people. Those are detestable traits of human behavior.
It is better to concentrate on the things that give us energy. Especially when you understand that you won't be able to change what bothers you no matter how much effort you put into it.
Today it rained again. I have not been able to move from home and I need to go buy some coal 😜. 🌻
Definitely yes, but I still want an iPhone with iCloud account, 😂😂 these pics are taken with one, check out how many details!!!!
No, it's just a bad joke, my Xiaomi does quite well...😅
Coal watches me from his sack, he doesn't understand why I look at him with some reluctance and fear...it's just that the current has improved a bit and has given me a chance to cook along with the gas ball....and I don't want to blacken my hands yet...😬
Rain and winter, I love it.
Happy Sundayooo
🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
I see what bothers you also annoys me haha. For me though, I will try to ignore those types of people. They are everywhere. It's a Pvp world sadly.
I feel you on the effort too. It really gives good energy vibes when I see the fruition of the hard work I've done.
Hope you been doing well and have a good xmas and end of year :D
I would like a world with more young people like you, so focused and educated that sometimes I don't believe it, please congratulate your parents!
To the side all the people who do us wrong, who pretend to diminish us...
What is JcJ? 😅
Happy day and week @shawnnft
🌻🌻🌻
o.o No I'm just lucky lol. I'm not that young. I think it's bad now because tiktok poisoning the young peoples minds. I grew up without tiktok so im ok :)
JcJ?
It's good to listen to that .... hahaha
We don't have much Tik Tok, but there is a lot of social networking and reggaeton with terrible lyrics around here, enough to bend young minds.
Well done @shawnnft
🌻
haha yes.
Woah your country doesn't use tiktok? I think the music thing is normal though. Music has always been like go do drugs and shoot people and stuff at least after a certain time.
Ty ty
Oh!!!
Sorry I had not seen this comment....
I'll explain, in my country Tik Tok is blocked, although people use a VPN and get in, but most young people prefer Instagram and Facebook...others do use it...not me.
Music is as diverse and varied as it is infinite, but they are still hell bent on destroying it.....
Greetings @shawnnft
oh i see O.O. Maybe they will unblock it. It's too powerful now I'm usign it mainly to see memes for my trading @_@
Yea music is great. Just listen to the better stuff :3. I'm mostly listening to chinese songs nowadays so its pretty ok for me
Understanding that no one is better than you and has no right to manipulate you or take advantage of you because they think they are better is a big step. I also believe that understanding that you deserve the best is a big step too.
Love is the greatest force in the Universe, and that is what binds you together. 😇
Good thing you bought charcoal for cooking! That's foresight and maybe you'll even have a barbecue even if you have liquefied gas. Food made with charcoal tastes great.
(a tip) If your pots get dirty, you can grind charcoal, and I think with salt and baking soda you can make them sparkling again. I'm not sure about the recipe, we'll have to do some research. hahaha... I'm just kidding to make you smile.
I was never very good at intuiting human evil, but the beatings have taught me certain things for the better I guess.
Charcoal is the guarantee of not running out of food, and one day I'll have to use it...😅
Ya as for your tip, hehe...I don't doubt it's good, but I'm still reluctant to cook, imagine scrubbing..😅
Good charcoal from Pinar is sold for haute cuisine in other countries, so the food must be pretty good, that cheers me up a bit after all...😂
Sweet dreams @nanixxx and have a spectacular week.
🌻🌻🌻
😁 Gracias. Tú también.
How good is being aware of our own strengths/weaknesses! It kinda gives us a balance on why we are who we are and where it probably takes us to in life.
I think it is important to keep control of our course in life, and it is important to know how to navigate between pitfalls and black holes that can swallow you without mercy.
Happy day to you !!!!
🌻
Thanks!!
