Learning To Love Life By Living Through Loss

A blog about things I like, and personal posts about navigating my way through grief and anger, learning how to live life and to not be afraid of it. I'm still breathing. "Learning to love life by living through loss and mistakes. Lessons learned, then gradually surfacing. Letting go, stripping naked to scream. I am not perfect, nor do I strive to be. I am alive in this world of face first falls and public breakdowns. I'm a retarded, disfigured clown, dying to be heard through the simple art of letting this heavy wall finally fall. I am an equal being of no race, or colour. A hallucination, if you will. Sneaking into the lives of strangers, and letting them fall apart to a new rhythm, just to feel better." -Blue October My MCR blog is @bettertoburn0ut

What does my cat think when I kiss his little head? Does he know it’s affection or does he think I’m trying to eat him

[softly-speaking-valkyrie]

These questions are totes why I follow you, top quality content right here

[kittykat8311]

It’s important!

[mollytwos]

Well it depends. Do you try to put ketchup on him before kissing his head, that would change things :P

[kittykat8311]

Yes. I put ketchup on my cat before I kiss his head.

Fun bit of info!

Kitties rub their heads against their chosen people as a method of scent marking, but not of ownership. Instead, they’re getting their scent on you because they know that you’re a family, but you smell “Funny” compared to them. They’re trying to make you smell like their family.

If your cat allows you to kiss their little head, it’s because they’re accepting -your- scent, and being part of your family.

Ketchup included.

This is a good note, thank you

This why they boop you. :)

Fact:

In animals that have communal grooming as part of their behavior, sticking your face in their face for kisses/boops doesn’t bother them at all because they know you’re not going to eat them.

But, with frogs (and other animals you shouldn’t be putting your mouth on) that do not have communal grooming there’s a high chance their first reaction will be “plz don’t eat me” before realizing you do not mean them any harm.

Also; if you accidentally step on a cat or a dog, or accidentally pinch/hurt a smaller pet and after they squeak or yelp you start petting them and trying to reassure the animal that you weren’t trying to hurt them they’ll understand that. Puppies and kittens get a little too rough with their play, but when a litter-mate ends up squeaking because they got hurt the puppy or kitten will stop playing so roughly and switch to kisses/licks as a way to apologize before they go back to playing.

When humans act the same way, and do not hurt them again it registers as “oh that wasn’t on purpose” and the animal quickly forgives you.

It’s the animal equivalent of “Don’t tell Mom!”

This is also good to know, thank you!

Words to the universe (I miss you so much)

I kept my promise, I passed the test by 21 just like we said I would. I just wish you were here for me to tell you. It’s so hard not having you around. I feel like the realisation of keeping my promise without you being here just ripped open a whole new wound for grief to pour out of. I know I haven’t properly grieved, but I’m usually okay or at least able to push past it. Right now, I’m not. I can’t. You’re not here. I know you’re proud of me, and everyone keeps telling me that, but the words are almost hollow without you to tell me yourself. The grief is just all consuming sometimes and right now I’m drowning in it. I miss you so fucking much daddy. I thought by now it wouldn’t hurt so much, but it hurts just as badly as when you died. I hope you get this message. I hope you’re proud of me. I’m trying so hard to be better, do better. But I’m just so tired.

I redid Ruby and Qrow, I made Team Monochrome in their alternate outfits, and I made Jaune and Pyrrha.

Would it be ok if we just vanished for a spell?   Simply put in easy terms, I am tired and want to know something other than all this.

Come with me, wherever it is we end up, and in the rhythms between your body and mine, we can recharge all that has been drained.
