Raising Children is a Bittersweet Journey

To my sweet child, 👶From the moment you graced this world with your presence, you were a tiny miracle, wrapped in tenderness and innocence. I remember holding you close, promising to keep you safe from harm, and vowing to never let you out of my sight. My heart overflowed with a love I had never known before, and I savored every second, treasuring the instant bond we shared.💗 When you turned two, you were a bundle of curiosity and attitude, and I couldn't get enough of your infectious laughter and endless energy. The hours we spent together were never enough; I yearned to keep you close, to immerse myself in your world, and to experience every fleeting moment with you. The thought of leaving you in daycare left me feeling anxious, eager to return to your side as soon as possible. On that first day of school, I clung to every detail of your life, as if I could hide in the school walls. I handed the teacher a detailed history of your likes, dislikes, and all the quirky things that ...

The Art of Understanding Service: Reflections on a Waitress's Mishap

Recently, I found myself at a restaurant, unwittingly becoming a witness to an unfortunate incident. A waitress, lost in her own world, accidentally spilled a drink on a customer. While her response lacked empathy and a swift apology, it made me ponder the complexities of human behavior and the importance of emotional intelligence. Before we delve into the intriguing dynamics of customer expectations, let's remember that everyone is bound to make mistakes, and there could be underlying reasons for such actions – like a heavy heart mourning the loss of a beloved pet. The Quandary of Free Food: So, why do some people feel entitled to free food when restaurant service fails to meet their expectations? Let's take a moment to consider an analogous situation. Suppose you encounter terrible service at a grocery store; would you expect them to give you a portion of the groceries for free? No, the standard response would be to return the item and receive a refund. The same principle app...

Why you should NOT make a New Year's Resolution

Image
It is a very popular trend for people to start New Year's resolutions during this time of year. While setting goals to better yourself is a great idea, New Year's resolutions are not worthy of your time. You can easily look up some statistics on how many people actually stick to their resolutions. It's a very small percentage. Most resolutions are broken by February. Why? I believe it's because the goals are set with the subconscious intention of being broken. The words "New Year" are tied to a specific part of the calendar; January. So, by setting a New Year's goal you are setting yourself up to focus on the goal during the new part of the year. But what about the rest of the year? Also, think about what kind of message you are sending yourself by saying, "I'll start that on January 1st." If you know you want to do something, why not start right away? I believe in setting goals for myself throughout the year. Any day, any time, always . T...

My cat was arrested

Image
My cat, Ricky, was arrested yesterday. Arrested!! I didn't even know cats could get arrested. My indoor cat, who has never been outside before, somehow escaped. I got a call at work because like a responsible pet owner, she has a microchip. While bailing my cat out of the pound, I was able to get some minimal information as to how they got her. They claim that Ricky entered someone's house through their doggy door. Allegedly, Ricky had entered their house four times before.  Ridiculous! I shouted. Ricky is an indoor cat and she doesn't go outside. Officer Idiot has the audacity to respond, "Well clearly she does go outside because we found her in someone's house." It took a lot for me not to reach through the stupid hole in the privacy window and hit her. While waiting for my citation, which was written on a legit arrest report, I read as much as I could from the intake report that sat on the other side of the glass. Ricky was found on the same block tha...
