K… Ima take a minute ta tell some OV ma GUHH’s out there, who are trapped like me some VALUABLE advice!!! Take heed WOMEN! “Behind ever good man/DAWG IZ a BETTA (& I do mean better) woman!!!! Ya see us girlZ go thru some stuff ta give our babies a decent life.
We get imprisoned by our life. We see NO way out. Ever once in a while you will hear a success story. Those are few and far between though. You’re more likely to see women on court TV who have just snapped and can’t take the pain anymore and do something KaRazZy! Then there are the ones who medicate (heller). Now we can’t forget bout the ones who play the illusion of “Donna Reed” all the while being tormented.
I used ta play the Donna Reed role. I wanted ever body ta think,man she’s got her stuff together. Then it came ta a point of wanting ta be numb to the pain. So I medicated. I have never done anything right for anybody, and was reminded MANY times over! Not just by Ted,but my family to. Ya see when a “man” works and provides,then he is A OK in your family’s book. As a matter of fact he is better than you. So much better than you they will move him in and send you up the creek (water under the bridge Holly). Sorry y’all. Can ya tell I’m a little jaded?!
Now girls out there this is what I have learned. The more things change the more they stay the same! We are STUCK. There are NO fairy tales! There is however, happily ever afters!!! DO WHAT MAKES U HAPPY!!!! GIVE A DAYUMMMMM bout what others think of you!!! I mean that from the depths of ma soul!!! If your family doesn’t support you??? Ummmerraaa O THA HELL WELL! You can love your family from a distance. I do and am happier for it! If ya can’t find a job because ever dang interview ya go on the boss man wants more of you,than answering the phone? It’s OTAY! Something will come along. When he comes at you in that drunken stupor,and decides ta choke you out… Pick up the biggest object you can find,and FIGHT THA HELL BACK!!!! FIGHT like your life depends on it! That is exactly what I do! Ma family thinks I am the abuser haha… That is because them BOYZ get good at crafting the art of abuse. They learn if ya choke em it doesn’t have ta leave a mark. They learn if ya ta a down pillow which is pretty heavy and swing with all their might,it leaves no scars.
Wait a minute now…we can’t furget THA mental stuff. Ya KNO, NOBODY WILL WANT U! you’re a natural born WHORE, you’re ugly,you’re a sorry excuse for a mother and a wife! Oh and ma favorite “YOU DISGUST ME”!!! Lemme tell ya what girlyZ,listen to it NO MORE!!!!!!
If you are imprisoned…MAKE IT FUNN!!! When he comes at you,you go right back at him! He hits u,knock his ASS out! He calls you outta your name,well then you do the same!!! TAKE IT NO MORE!!! Put your self on a pedastool! Cherish yourself! Go buy your own self flowers! Dedicate songs to yourself!!! Talk yourself UP! You don’t need a man ta do it! Be POSITIVE!!! Always remember this to shall pass! Ima leave ya with this… WALK SOFTLY and CARRY A CAST IRON SKILLET!!!!!!
Till next time…HOLLLLLAAAAA
“Walk softly and carry a cast iron skillet.” Holly, I love that. I don’t believe in fighting, but I do believe in fighting back. There’s an enormous difference.
