As some of you know I've started my blog again, and I had so many things to write about, but I have writers block this morning. I had two more, but now I've forgotten them. Sigh...let me know if you have any good ideas to write about.

You must be prepared for it. It's very triggering sometimes, but it's also very helpful and VERY real.

they only showed part one, and the poster said part two was taken down due to copy write issues. Do you know how to find part two. I'm highly interested!! Highly! I appreciate it so much!!

I think a huge one would be rage and forgiveness. Looking too much into a simple thing. Making mountains out of molehills.

OH!!! I agree with you!! That is a great topic of which I have a ton to say about. My mother in-law and sister in-law make me crazy!!! With a capitol C. I am always feeling belittled by their behavior, when I should really ignore it. the problem is that their lifestyle contradicts the values I grew up on so much so that it makes me go apeshit crazy. EXCELLENT topic!! Thanks!!

Great documentary. I wrote about it, and thanked you. Chaotic, I also wrote about your ideas, and thanked you for them. I just wanted to thank you both again. I got some great writing done, and it was therapeutic. I can see how far I've come!

Writing prompt: A 14 year old girl is in detention for fighting. She is sitting against a wall on the floor. She sees a popular basketball guy, a senior, is in detention, too. She wonders why he is there. He ignores her, but she watches his every move and observes what he wears, his mannerisms, his way of amusing himself. Her inner monologue. Go.

What's a MH blog? I wanna know. I'll see if I create a fictitious story about the girl and a senior. I think I've got one from elementary school I can draw from, for myself. LOL

what to write about... the society and how it impacts individuals. Fast and everchanging life in the West. How Internet influences our lifes.

Post-modernism and what are its implications on everyday life
