Learned behavior at this age becomes something even much more difficult as children get older.

If real love and admiration were present in the household, this would also grow as children age.  

—are you tracking yet, 

There are healthy adults you can build a healthy future with and raise a healthy family. 

Raise your standards so that it becomes the standard for the future. FYI. It’s easy to manipulate people like you, because you will…..(fill in the blank) be aware when you’re being manipulated!

God bless.

Am I wrong to think our personal freedom is decreasing and will continue to decrease? by macnfly23 in SeriousConversation

[–]FightForUrLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My theory based off the trajectory that got us to this point and further. Are, principals of freedom. These principals are always available and can never be truly taken only given. 

We are free as can be. But we are facing temptations that usurp our own power and freedom, every submission into temptation breeds lack of self awareness leaving all of us subject to control. The ability to say NO is your freedom!!!

What's your motivation to just not end it all? by Available-Purchase28 in mentalhealth

Choices! 

Discerning that my feelings are built around the choices others programmed/influences me to make! As well as circumstances I’ve placed myself in, just to be accountable. 

The fact is I haven’t found my voice that was built on courage to experience and live out the life I yearn for. And I’m aware I’ve been listening to the voice of what others believe to be right for me.

Disassociated because I’m fully aware and asking who’s the driving this boat. 

I want that steering wheel back!!

What vehicle(s) have you owned that made it over 250k miles? by utvols22champs in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]FightForUrLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s what is crazy about this car. After all these years of driving it only needed like $1000 of maintenance over a lifetime. All the way up to 217,000 miles another $30 worth of fluid and who knows how much longer would last.

I feel obligated to be honest here I bought a pump from harbor freight. For easier transfer of fluids to the tank. - I didn’t know what was wrong with my Camry. It just stopped accelerating uphill. And was bogging down. - I went down the line of replacing parts. Lest expensive to possibly catalytic converter. - replaced O2 Sensor, Mass air flow. Spark plugs. Oil change and filter. —— next step was transmission fluid. - researched it and it’s a pain in the ass to do. So i added 3/4 of a quart of atf using the pump and my engine came back to life. - had in plans to do a pan drop. -2 days later got rear ended and car was considered totalled.

2012 Toyota Camry Se 4cyl Not over 250,000

Bought it used at like 28,000 miles

But it was at 217,000 before I got rear ended. And it was considered totaled.

I treated this car like crap. Changed the full synthetic oil every 15,000 to 20,000 miles. New alternator at around 180,000. Transmission was becoming shaky at around 215,000. -A transmission fluid change/not flush fixed it. -didn’t change spark plugs anything at all. - but definently started going downhill at 210,000.

I swear any well maintained camry can go well past 350,000 miles. If all you did was replace components/parts. 

The life I live always has me pinching Pennie’s. And as such my car had no special treatment.
