Ups, downs – then turn arounds…

I have been graced with opportunity to again tutor women teachers-in-training.

Perhaps I got it wrong that I could help.

What’s the point to try when one can thrive better by contributing on their own terms?

What others project upon us does not change the truth of our merit.

I can no longer take hits – and stay silent.

I took the blow, could not absorb it – so left the situation.

It sucks to get one’s heart stepped on.

Humiliation for being seen as dependent amd interrupting – when I wasn’t.

Being misread by assumption is painful.

“I need to state that your using the term ‘pride’ in this situation is completely inappropriate when addressing the real concern of potential permanent disability – and would suggest your being more neutral, if not more compassionate, to future clients in this regard.”

Raised rent – but no pending eviction.

Where in the realm are the true, dashing gents as the rest of us get pushed into gutters?

I’ve seen plenty of the detrimental kind.

Lamdlord is raising rent as high as he can.

Bowing to those who cannot “see” amounts to propagation of blindness.

There are so many reasons for relationships to not work – but only one reason for validity that should ultimately matter.

A burbling undercurrent building to erupt into hysterical sobbing or outrageous laughter.

“Shhhhh,” I remember my once-beloved’s mother cautioning me, for in that culture, women are not permittted valid candor.

When I advocated for the community back in 2004 and related, there was nothing in it for me – I could not gain nor retain housing.

I dislike being forced to take up a cause.

There is currently no accountability for the insidiuos war being waged upon our communities where hard-working families are discounted as housing priority.

If it happens, this will be our 6th since 2011.

Who is gaining all of the benefits from loss?
