Toxic Positivity . . .
Definition:
Toxic positivity is a "pressure to stay upbeat no matter how dire one's circumstance is", which may prevent emotional coping by feeling otherwise natural emotions. Toxic positivity happens when people believe that negative thoughts about anything should be avoided.
Hello everyone! I hope you're doing well.
I wanted to discuss the topic shown above.
While I do believe we need to try to be optimistic in this life, sometimes things just suck and
you know what? That's totally ok!
There are some people in this life that shoot unicorn farts out their bum. They see rainbows
and sunshine constantly and never see life as it truly is, which can be so debilitating
for those of us who see life as it truly is.
The toxic positivity can be so depressing and draining. It creates such a mental/emotional
burden on those who don't wear rose colored glasses. It's extremely draining.
When you have to deal with someone on a daily basis like this, it has a tendency to
cause a level of depression that can be a struggle. Day after day, week after week, it can
wear a person down.
I have someone like this that I work with on the daily. I can sense a happier & much easier
going day when this person is away from work. No, not just for me personally, but the
day is so much lighter for all involved.
When someone displays toxic positivity, they have a tendency to try to force their fluff
down everyone's throat that they come in contact with.
Do you have someone in your life like this? If so, how do you deal with it?
Do you suck it up and keep going, or did you change jobs?
I love my job, I just don't love the toxic positivity.
May you all create healthy boundaries and live a content, peaceful life.
Blessed Be!

Quiet Time . .. . .

Deep Sighs..............................
In the current state of our world, I seem to find that almost daily, a deep sigh seems to come slowly and frustratingly out of my mouth. My head hangs and slowly shakes back and forth. Each day is another travesty in the news that I've either heard or read about.
It all makes me feel so exhausted, sad, angry...... you name it, I feel it. I try my best to look on the brighter side of things and distract myself with games on my phone or working with my tarot & oracle cards or playing with the cat & dog. So many times I just want to go home and hide away.
The older I get the more of a hermit I become. My boyfriend is on disability and is home a good majority of the time, so when the weekends come around, he wants us to travel somewhere to get out of the house. While I totally understand his feelings, I'm the opposite a good portion of the time as my job is in the public eye on a daily basis and to recharge my battery, I need quiet, down time.
As I've gotten older and have been through several cancer situations, my body isn't as quick and nimble as it once was. I'm not 'old', by any means, but I'm not 20 anymore and like everyone, I'm slowing down a bit.
What adds to the exhaustion is the daily news with all the idiocy coming from our government. Sometimes I almost hate to open up my phone, yet I'm addicted to it and want to find out what's happening in the world. Anyone else feel like that?
I'm hoping these 4 years either show us an impeachment or that it passes quickly to get someone new to lead our country. It's been so maddening to see what the Cheeto gets away with and it feels like no one is doing anything about it. While I know there are some who are extremely diligent in trying to put a stop to the madness, it just doesn't always feel like anything is being done.
We will persevere through the madness, but it just takes time.
Keep your heads up my friends and know that you're not alone!
Until we meet again....
