What’s the kindest thing someone has ever done for you?
When my husband told me he loves me. It came from the heart. He told me I was his equal. What I said mattered. That is kindness from the heart ❤️. People talk as though they care, but deep down those are only words. When you talk from your heart, it shows in your actions.

What’s a quote that perfectly describes your outlook on life?
To trust or not to trust?
That is the question.
That is my quote
Trusting a person or persons is very important. I have learned the hard way when I trusted people close to me. I got stabbed in the heart. Now I rely on one person that is me. Plus my kids. If I meet people they have to prove through their actions if I can trust them or not.

What’s a common misconception people have about happiness?
People say you need money 💰 to be happy. Yes we need 💰 money. But more importantly we need to be true and trustworthy to those people we love the most. To be truly happy one needs to be truthful about what they want out of life, and what is your lifestyle. Happiness is not about the money 💰, but happiness is about living your life your way and not letting anyone telling you how to live. That is happiness 😊.

What’s the most profound piece of advice you’ve been given? Did you take it?
I believe with all my heart that trust is a very important part of any relationship. It includes family. If you can’t trust your own family who can you trust. Relationships are important because everyone needs someone to depend on. My husband who passed away was the one person I could trust. He didn’t hide anything from me. My parents hid a lot from me, and I will never forget or forgive them. To me trust has to be earned. Not just by words, but through their actions.
People can say I love you and I want the best for you, but when you hide important facts, and you find out it is just lies. You can’t trust family, or even friends. I have learned to trust myself. If anyone comes into my life. They have to prove their actions are true and what they tell me is true. It is important to trust what your gut tells you.

If you had to describe your ideal life, what would it look like?
I have had a hard life. I believed my family loved me and I could trust them. Today I am on my own. I don’t trust my family. I talk to my brother and I am okay with that.
When my husband passed away my life changed again. He was my best friend. I know he is in a better place.
I hope I find a friend who will grow old with me. I hope I will be lucky. One man is enough for me. Trusting is difficult, but I would give a man a chance. That would be great.
Life has its ups and downs and I hope my life will be good again. I have never been a quitter. My children who are adults keep me going.

Describe a risk you took that you do not regret.
I am in my sixties now and I have learned a lot about trust, respect, and communication. People say listen to your parents, your brother or sister.
I have learned to listen to what my gut says. I am alone, and that is okay because I don’t have to pretend to care about people who only cared about themselves.
I have learned to depend on myself. Life gave me a bad hand, but I still didn’t give up. I have challenges, but I am not a quitter.
When I met my husband. I became happy and I did what I wanted to do. He was my rock, my friend and one I trusted with all my heart ❤️. I have learned to love myself. Time doesn’t heal loss, it makes you stronger. I do what I need to do even if I am not sure if it is right or wrong, but it is my choice.
Taking a risk comes with consequences, but I know I made the right choices.
If you can’t trust your family, who can you trust.

What skills or lessons have you learned recently?
I learned to trust again, but I am aware that anyone can lie, and seeing people’s actions is very important to me. I have learned to trust my gut. When something sounds wrong I deal with the situation before it happens. My intuition is getting stronger and I am happy about that.
Trust is earned. I have learned to love myself and that I will get through what is thrown at me. My kids believe in me, and that keeps me going. My cats give me comfort when I cry and I know they love me too.
Remember trust comes with a price. I say that because when there is no trust nothing works. Business or personal.

Feeling a sense of loss
I cannot explain
The tears running down my eyes
Feeling alone and scared
For something mystical I can’t explain
The emptiness in my heart
Why did I not the truth
Lies on lies
I cry myself to sleep
I pretend I don’t care but I do
Where do I belong?
No where
My home is emptiness even though it’s full of stuff
My tears are my anger running down my face
I am sad and now I am angry
I am deceived by people I thought were family, but they are not
Lies, lies and lies
The end

What’s the trait you value most about yourself?
These two go together. When I love someone it is real and I don’t pretend to. I am honest. I am honest in what I believe. I know through your actions you love me and you are honest with me. I put my ❤️💜 heart into our relationship. I have learned to trust and when I am played I don’t forgive and I don’t forget. It includes family. Trust is very important to me and your actions say so much.
People say forgiveness is a good way to feel closure. I feel closure when I get rid of what was taken from me. Trust what you believe is right. It is hard, but in the end you win. I have found serenity and peace ✌️. The truth always comes out in the end.

What’s a topic or issue about which you’ve changed your mind?
When I was growing up I believed my family loved me. I was wrong. I trusted them and all I ever wanted was to be loved and protected. I never felt that way. I always felt I was being watched. I thought my family believed me when I said I was being watched. No one took me seriously. I thought the family was about love and caring. I was very wrong. People say you should forgive your parents and I say never. I believe forgiveness is a weakness because you are giving in to what they have done. I live my life my way, and my kids keep me going. They are adults, but they still depend on me. My husband was my family, and he will always be. Maybe I might meet someone, but I too need a friend. A special friend. My life taught me a lot. Trust people who show you love and caring because they stay when you need them the most. Family means different things to different people, but family should be people you can trust.
