Hello Dazzle! Thanks for coming and hanging out with me today, I’m glad that you are here. I’m still on the topic of being a bully. Today I wanted to talk about how adults can be bullies and what that can look like. The idea behind this is to increase awareness around these behaviors. Often times, when we are raised in environments that are inappropriate, we are taught that unhealthy behaviors are normal without ever realizing that they are harmful. When we talk about these kinds of behaviors it gives us a chance to self evaluate and consider if there are things that we could be doing better.

Change of Posting Schedule
Hello Dazzle!
I have decided to go back to work as a nurse. I am not going to be working in direct patient care, but rather in a supportive nursing role. Because of that, I will no longer be able to post every day. I am changing the posting schedule to once a week and that will be every Friday. This change is starting this week which means that the next post you will see will be the Friday post.

I hold onto my Bravado hands trembling as I fasten my coat head held up high, making eye contact because I know it's expected no one looks at their feet to conquer the world no one takes what they want while slumping their shoulders and hiding their faces I pretend that I believe because there is nothing without the belief since I cannot hold onto that faith I cling to the possibility that one day, if I hold tight enough, pretending to believe will cause me to believe Up on the stage, beneath the lights I cannot imagine that anyone wants me here I am but a thief, taking this opportunity from those who would really shine but I must try with floundering steps and faltering voice I must attempt it I cannot live forever in this darkness not without having at least once attempting to stand in the light can you look upon me and genuinely smile can you stand beside me and long to hold me as I do you can you wish the best for me as I have always for you
The “Good Enough” of Health Choices
Hello Dazzle! Thanks for coming and hanging out with me today, I’m glad that you are here.

Seeking Change?
Hello Dazzle! Thanks for coming and hanging out with me today, I’m glad that you are here. A question that I am frequently asked is: “Would you want to change the way you are?” And this is a complicated question. When people ask me this, they think that it has a simple answer. They think that it can be answered with a “yes” or a “no”. But it really doesn’t have that simple of an answer.
