I'd love to hear a vent of yours at this sleepover! Nothing like a good rage sesh to getting everyone yelling to the point of mom come in to shush us XD
😂 I'm not mom tonight. Hmm, let's see what to rage about.
I never got what it was like, what the point of lack of love from people, from parents, towards kids and those who require more assistance in life. How are there so many people homeless? Starving? Sick with very preventable things??!
I am very mixed- irish, Norwegian and Mexican. All of my family are immigrant, recent ones. I am 2nd generation at most. I was raised with if someone needs help and you have what they need, you help them.
We never sent people home hungry. When rhey walked through that door we had the expectation of "we are feeding them" everyone got their fill, no matter how much that took. Clothes tear? Here wear something of mine until I can patch it. Hurt? We have a mini pharmacy- step on up friend.
And I learned at a young age that this is not normal.
Loving someone without conditions, kindness without strings attached is virtually unheard of and it makes me sick to my stomach when people who I thought cared for me starts getting angry that I'm not able to or don't feel comfortable with helping them on something and they start going into "well I did x, y, and z for you..." and it shows me that they never cared. To them our relationship was transactional and nothing more.
When I would have given them the shirt off my back without hesitation and never mentioned it again.
When did we all grow so... distant, cold and transactional??
