I was right.<br /><br />From mid-November and up through now, you can get a hint of this reflected in some of my posts. While life feels entirely different from the first 8 months of the year, I've done a lot of introspection on how the same kinds of bad decisions I made in my youth are so common in youth today, and how unfortunate it is that we do so many things that we don't know that we'll regret later. Regrets are probably the heart of any mid-life crisis.<br /><br />Speaking of regret and how mistakes can build character, watch this remarkable scene which I uploaded on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/keepittrillblog" rel="nofollow"><br />my You Tube Channel</a>. <br /><br />As for the way this particular post ended, with <i>for the first time ever... I simply was not there..."</i>, I did get past that part after those few awful weeks, just so you'll know.Kit (Keep It Trill)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03027769872237001801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6325219138869173743.post-10642713579199866812009-10-15T19:55:12.232-04:002009-10-15T19:55:12.232-04:00Kit, I started blogging again.

One day she even told me she voted for Obama, but in the context of the conversation, race had not been brought up in any shape or form, however she was being a racist ass and must have read my mind. This was long before she did her dirt. The bitch is just plain evil. <br /><br />I'm 95% over it, though. I'll upload another installment on this series next week, but she's not the main focus. <br /><br /><b>Sagacious</b>, Hell man, I thought you knew that!

Not that she'd ever admit it. I wish white people who act like that could see how ugly it makes them.<br /><br />You wrote,<br /><br /><i>I'm certain she suffers from that disease known as white entitlement, where good manners and fairness are not needed in interacting with non-whites.</i><br /><br />Exactly. I hope that's dying out, but then, I do see it in young ones too. And call them on it -- they seem more receptive to that than the older ones. Even if you win in a suit against that woman, there's little reason to think she see the racist errors of her ways.<br /><br />Glad to hear you sounding stronger, Kit. I hope to read in future installments that you're mostly healed up now.macon dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07795547197817128339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6325219138869173743.post-84624626774445258482009-10-10T20:00:49.709-04:002009-10-10T20:00:49.709-04:00Laurel!

I went through something very similar this year; perhaps I'll tell you about it if you'd like me to email you but I'll not blog it, for my own reasons. There was a period of several months, though, that I felt kicked to the point of paralysis by someone who did it just because she could. <br /><br />I realize that now, but I didn't then. <br /><br />I have come out better and stronger on the other side. I am sure you have as well, or if not, that you will soon. You have too much power within. Sometimes it gets a bit hidden, but it cannot be extinguished.MountainLaurelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10512030002803787636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6325219138869173743.post-20564791947024704242009-10-10T02:04:08.776-04:002009-10-10T02:04:08.776-04:00Thanks, TriState.

I'm glad you did. <br /><br /><b>Truth</b>, you comment about my writing is inspirational. Thank you.<br /><br /><b>Jay</b>, Thanks for the cyber hug, cuz that what it was. Hugs back to you.<br /><br /><b>BGIM</b>, Thanks for checking this out, truly. A cousin told me not long after my mother's death that now I was in a club, that only people who have lost theirs can understand. She was right. In a good relationship, your mother is the one you turn to when life takes a downturn, no matter how old you are. I really missed her this year, even though it's been five years. And it's weird, that even though she's dead, she mothered me in my dreams, even the last one, when she said it was time for her to go. As so often in life, she was right.Kit (Keep It Trill)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03027769872237001801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6325219138869173743.post-19232259717024160132009-10-07T11:54:17.860-04:002009-10-07T11:54:17.860-04:00Kit, I'm sorry I got off point talking about h...Kit, I'm sorry I got off point talking about hunting and boxing. I was really talking about violence; and I'm sorry about the violence you and your kids had to endure. I know it must really hurt to think that, at a certain point, you weren't there. You had checked out. But like Truth say you're still holding up. Never give up.

I like how you switched up your writing style yet your message and your emotions are coming through loud and clear. <br /><br />I am looking forward to the next installment...its interesting how you mentioned your kids were motherless because emotionally you were not there. I can't help but think how often that happens and how I know even I have been there at times where my body is present but my mind is not. <br /><br />As someone who has struggled with losing her own Mama 5 years ago yet still calling out to her, I can relate. Just the other day I was out on the porch having a butt, talking up to her and wishing as I do often that she could come back for just an hour..to talk and guide me. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing this powerful yet private piece with us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6325219138869173743.post-70261344561294753452009-10-07T03:55:01.214-04:002009-10-07T03:55:01.214-04:00Hey Kit, keep ya head up like Pac said.

I believe your anger is the righteous kind and you shouldn't have to apologize for a thing. It's sad that we live among predators or like you said "hunters," yet we do. The losses you have sustained would make anybody vulnerable to depression and despair, you should be commended for surviving theses ordeals that were not of your own making.<br /><br />With all that said, you obviously are still standing. This sick woman may have "shot" you, but you have survived the wound. Wherever this story leads, you've seemed to have lived a life serving others. That's something I respect and admire. <br /><br />As far as this lady and the management company goes, I can't help but think of Rosa Parks. She showed righteous anger in the face of injustice by not giving up her seat. Maybe a lawsuit, no matter what the result, might be a way of showing righteous anger.Vertishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13903351135854868487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6325219138869173743.post-24186793590058710222009-10-06T12:56:13.327-04:002009-10-06T12:56:13.327-04:00Good post, Kit.
There are two things I can't ...Good post, Kit.<br /><br />There are two things I can't stand: hunting and boxing. They call boxing an art. But what it's really an opportunity for white people to watch and bet on blacks, latinos and Russians as they batter each other's brains out. Given the overwhelming reports of the damage done to the brain, among other things, this sport cannot e justified in a truly civilized, non-violent society.<br /><br />My male friends, about five or so smart ass, self-centered New Yorkers who think they know everything but can't shoot worth a damn, say they hunt-- get this--"...to thin out the herd." No, they are not hunting for themselves. They are providing a service to society. Pleeease. Why don't they say why they're really driving miles away from home to sit up in trees in the cold? It's to get away from their "overbearing" wives (In other words, a force of nature they can't control) if only for a few days and to satisfy their lust to compete, to control, to "conquer" nature.<br /><br />I think the heard that really needs to be thinned out are people who steadfastly refuse exist with nature but endeavor to enslave it.Mac Daddy Tribute Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01483912561779369669noreply@blogger.com
