Thoughts of a Narcoleptic Mind

Some of you out there don't realize how divided our country really is. You think that if we discuss race relations, we are further dividing our country. News flash, this country can't get much more divided than it already is. Just because something is not your reality doesn't mean it isn't a reality, so stop insisting these issues are not still prevelant. That would be like healthy people insisting chronic illnesses aren't real, or are exaggerated just because it is not a part of their life experience. The KKK still exists. Racists still hold prominent positions in our government. White Supremacists do join the police force. Whypipo are still scared of POC simply because of the color of their skin or their religious beliefs. Non POC do call the police on POC just because they can. AND YES, White👏 Privilege 👏Does👏Exist👏. Again,just because it isn't your reality doesn't mean it isn't a reality.

It would be a lie to say I don't have insecurities. We all have insecurities, if we are normal. I have never been insecure about who I am because of my darker complexion though. As a child, I never wished I was white. I never even wished to be light skinned. Growing up, I knew that lighter skin was the standard of beauty. All the women on the magazines, all the love interests in the movies and videos were light skinned or racially ambiguous. I knew that even though we weren't being portrayed in the media, unless you count prostitutes, drug lord's mistresses etc., they were out there. I just perceived it as ignorance on the part of the world not to acknowledge us. Yes, even as a child I was a deep thinker. I remember pondering existentialism as early as elementary school. Of course I didn't know it was called existentialism at that time. I digress though. My dark skin is part of what makes me who I am. My dark skin is part of what has helped to mold me. Have I been told ...

Another baby has lost her life due to senseless violence. For those of you involved with gang life,  the ones who claim to be so hard and unafraid of the consequences of gang life, remember that you are less likely to be the victim of those consequences. If you have brothers,  sisters,  sons or daughters,  do you even consider the danger you are putting them in anytime you are just around them?  When you post up on Facebook about how big about how big and bad you are, flashing your guns and your stacks, does it ever enter your mind that there are children's lives that could be in your hands? Is your rep more important to you than the lives of the family you supposedly love?  For some of you mothers out there,  do you think or care about the danger you are putting your babies lives in by allowing these men in your life?  Just remember, if you are about that life or are involved with someone who is about that life,  you are just as responsible ...

I will leave this place escape somewhere far beyond dreams to a place of never ending peace no fear,  no pain,  no hurt,  no tears I will leave this place and travel to a place beyond where universes end beyond stars that are the keepers of wishes and rainbows the guardians of all hearts treasures I will leave this place in reverie of the place that I seek where I will be free Yes,  I will leave this place

Narcolepsy is such an unpredictable illness, in that you never know what symptoms will pop up when. While EDS is a constant, you just never know when a hallucination might strike. For some, exploding head syndrome can hit at a moment's notice. Cataplexy, well that is just a whole other ballgame. You also have the ever scary sleep paralysis. While sleep paralysis is not exclusive to Narcolepsy, it is likely to be much more common if you have Narcolepsy. With that being the case, a PWN (person with Narcolepsy) is much more likely to have heard many of the ridiculous theories associated with sleep paralysis. I myself have heard, "Just pray about it." or things like you need to block those evil spirits. It is amazing that so many people don't realize that there is a perfectly valid, physiological reason people suffer from sleep paralysis. Here is a simple explanation of sleep paralysis. During the process of falling asleep, or waking up one of the sleep cycles your b...

For the life of me, I can't see how people can say God blessed us with Trump. This is my response: Yes, God would bless the country with a misogynistic, racist, narcissistic sociopath who has openly admitted to sexual assault. He would bless us with a wonderful Christian man who grabs women by the p____, and is accused of raping a thirteen year old. Yes, thank God for blessing us with a man that is such a good Christian, he has hundreds of lawsuits from the people, and businesses he has cheated, because that is what Jesus would tell us to do. What God are you giving thanks to, because it surely can't be the God of love, and compassion. It certainly can't be the God who said money is the root of all evil, because that would make 45 the pure definition of evil.
