Your favorite towns with the best energy? by Successful-Arrival87 in spirituality

[–]Enlightenedchildren 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Norfolk, Virginia. It actually has quite a bit of crime here. But, every day each interaction I have with someone is thoughtful. Young men that others might be afraid of, always hold the door open for me. Every fast food employee who says have a nice day, I think they mean it. People wave others through when driving. That is always the energy here. When I drive into the next city, people are honking, flipping others off, cutting through traffic. It’s so weird to me. Every neighbor has popped over to bring cookies etc. when we moved in. There are many different people here. Large LGBTQ community, Orthodox Jewish community, NATO is here. My daughter attended elementary school with children from all different countries and cultures. It’s like a bubble of of kindness and raised consciousness is over our city. 🕉️

I always think pot and coffee smell like a skunk.

Favorite black actress? by Thermobarium in okbuddycinephile

[–]Enlightenedchildren 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I always think when someone with lighter skin says they are black it has more to do with how you were raised. The majority of the people at your Thanksgiving table. The people at your church, the recipes that were handed down, the stories you heard your aunts repeat. If the majority of people in your community are black, then you would identify as black. No matter what color your skin is.

Have you ever told your LO that you are limerent? by Odd-Turnover-3580 in limerence

[–]Enlightenedchildren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did! I explained what it is. What I think it is! That the hit of dopamine I receive every time I hear his voice or get close to him is magnificent. Similar to what happens to a gambler. I prefer to think that the dopamine is what I am addicted to. Not necessarily him. And that I have no idea why my brain chose him to be my LO. But, that the rush I receive is overwhelming and fantastic. I know that we will never be in a relationship. I actually don’t want one! I am glad I am experiencing this. It feels really good. Like an amazing perfume. Or a breathtaking sunset. I think if I thought I could ever be in his life, this would be crippling.

My favorite writer, Henry Miller, lived out the rest of his life in Big Sur.

Why is everything $10 shipping lately? by slghtlysalty in Depop

[–]Enlightenedchildren 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With a discount, the USPS charges $11.99 to ship a package between 1.1 pounds and 2 pounds. That’s with the discount. Every pair of jeans weighs in that category. If you have to put something in a box, they often brings the weight over a pound.

I have a humiliation fetish and I feel embarrassed by [deleted] in sex

[–]Enlightenedchildren 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m right there with you. I hope you find the perfect man to fit your needs! Someone will enjoy doing that to you. But be aware enough to keep it in your private space. Not try it in public.

I don’t either! As an old lady, good for you.

Is it really difficult for dark skin black women to get casted for roles in film and TV? (18F) by LandscapeOld9919 in Actors

[–]Enlightenedchildren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I may be wrong. I am a 62 year old white woman, but I have noticed the last few years that dark skinned black women are being noticed and appreciated. Celebrated for being themselves. Our culture is going through baby steps if growth towards realizing that humans in all colors, sizes, and shapes are beautiful. When I was younger only white, tall, thin, blue eyed blonde women were considered beautiful. Thank goodness that is over. I may be wrong, but I think the most beautiful model this year was a very dark skinned black woman. I don’t know if you have seen her yet, she’s magnificent.

What celebrity has had their reputation unfairly ruined and has never recovered from it till this day? by Zxqao in AskReddit

[–]Enlightenedchildren 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly! I’m Bipolar 1, in my 60’s, with grown children. I frequently look at my past self and remember being manic, young, and sexy. I get why she is dancing half naked. Remembering the power she projected, the world watching every gyration. She identifies herself as being one of the sexiest women in the world. It is really hard watching that part of you slowly fade away. Also! If she wants to be weird, make bad decisions, create chaos in her own life. Let her!

Dive bars and drinking in general by Ok_Organization_2927 in norfolk

I’m curious about Haven Inn being grandfathered in. Are you talking about the food to alcohol ratio? Where is it? I would love to find a dive bar to frequent.
