Revelation for today: Warning it’s a bit sobering
Why do humans being need to be touched?
Did you know that you can give a baby food, water, clothing, keep it warm. Everything it needs to live, BUT if you don’t touch that baby it will die in less than a month? I read this factoid decades ago. The thought that crossed my mind at the time was what sick person did this atrocity to an infant?
But i digress since human touch is SO important to us! Why are some people are force to go thru life without touch or very limited touch. Yes, everyone is busy. But when was the last time someone touch you or better yet when was the last time someone touched you. It could be as simple as holding your hand or a hug. We touch to let others know they aren’t alone.
In fact, i can go weeks without touching anyone or being touched. I still haven’t found my tribe after more than a decade here in LA. Guess that’s why it doesn’t feel like home. That’s life in LA I guess. I can go days & not speak to anyone as well. I don’t count text as talking as I view it as impersonal. It’s great for sharing relevant info, but not connecting.
The point of this is go hug your loved ones & friends!
Ask how they are doing & actually stop to listen to their answer without staring at your phone or thinking about what’s the next thing you gotta go do. They might be going thru something that you don’t know & secretly dying inside & don’t want to bother you with it cause they feel others are too busy to listen or care. I’ve had friends take their lives or killed for stupid reasons there is nothing more sobering than being left behind wondering what could I have done?
Who did you hug today?? 🙂
Love & light

A walking contradiction... What you see isn’t what you get. To get to know the essence you need to open the book and read. An enigma; giving, selfless, conceited, arrogant, loner, author, friend, confidant, trainer, model, actor, and life coach. It really depends on your relationship with him. To someone who doesn’t know him or decides to judge the book by the cover; he is viewed as conceited, arrogant or even mean. Which is the exact opposite of who he is. He’s more of a shy introvert around those he doesn’t know or isn’t comfortable with. Get below the quiet exterior and you’ll find a heart that, to know is to love. He tries to live his life literally walking in love. He would give the shirt off his back to help. Raised by his mother, with no role model on what a man should be. He set out to be different than what he saw in the community. Men who abandoned their responsibilities to pursue whatever tickled their fancy was the norm. These men didn’t care about the damage caused by their selfish actions. He thought the road would be easy, but alas, it proved him wrong. Society had changed dramatically in a short time. People seemed to perceive his love as a weakness. Or perhaps they had not come across a person, who accepts them for them. Always waiting for the other shoe to drop, they tried to manipulate a gift to their advantage. Left alone most of the time, he started to set his pain to print. Never intending for anyone to read it. However, God had a different plan in mind. He would use DC’s pain to show the women; that there are men out there, who do feel profoundly deeper than they think. To reach out to the masses that don’t know how to get others to understand what they are dealing with or have dealt with. He simply wanted to help people on a larger scale.
