no words

In todays news, the infamous Adam Moss committed suicide on Wednesday.
I can't say that I'm deeply saddened by the news being the fact that he took lives in one of the most vicious ways possible. I remember the day that it was chaotic outside. you heard sirens and ambulances. Everyone was outside. I was told that the Saldana kids were dead. It wasn't until later that I found out how they had died.
Moss had been dating Leticia (the children's mother) so he had lived in their house. I don't know why he did what he did and frankly I don't think I want to know because no answer would suffice. I will never understand why any person can take a hammer and bludgeon a child to death .. let alone 5. On top of that slit their mothers throat and kill his boss. And still have time to write a note saying the family is on vacation so they wouldn't be found right away.
I remember the little caskets at their funeral. They had to be closed because of the damage this man did. I Believe I Can Fly on repeat. Over 300 people came to their funeral here in Sioux City and who knows how many in California where the family was laid to rest. Still to this day I hear about them. I still here Zack calling me grandma just to be funny. I miss my little friends. The life that was taken away from them. I know they will never be forgotten. Not as long as I breathe. I say this is part of the closing. Though I wish pain on no one so I hope that Moss' family stay strong.

i am not so naive

Sometime I wish people would learn not to underestimate me. When I want to get somewhere or get something accomplished I am very capable of doing so. Of course there are always limitations and set backs but I know how to push through it. I lived in a time where our money was tight and we had very little but we made it through.. Just because I am where I am today and don't look like i have ever had to fight my way out of the bottom doesn't mean anything. Looks can and are deceiving. Of course I don't believe in telling what most would call a "sob" story. I am not one who looks for a pity party.. But please know that I do know what it is like to go without in many aspects. I embrace that time in my life and it has taught me to be thankful of what I have. I will never forget it but I also will never return. Was it by choice and my own doing?? Of course not, who chooses to go without? Being born into it is one thing.. but staying in it is another. We all make decision...

negative challenge update #1

I know it has only been a day since I started this challenge, but let me tell you it is not easy. So far I have bit my tongue and have done a good job at not speaking anything out loud. My problem is in my head. It spins with words. I think that will be my roughest spot.. cleaning out my head. It is harder than you think. It's hard to shut off the thoughts that are trying to come out of your mouth.. But so far I can say I am doing better than I thought I would. I hope this can spread. :) sincerely [ME].
