Have you read this excerpt from Chapter Six inside my storybook or e-book?
“Hi there, I’m Mike. You must be the lovely lady I’ve heard so much about. And it’s all good now.”
Mike had two ex-wives, was twice my age, and stood about five foot seven. His hair was black and gray (particularly his sideburns), and he had a medium-toned complexion. He wore black, rectangular glasses which contrasted with his oblong-shaped face. Many of his front teeth were missing, so he had a mouth full of gums. He wasn’t a looker, that’s for sure. Another thing, his outfits left a lot to be desired. That brown and beige checkered suit he sported had faded out of fashion many years ago.
. . . . Despite being toothless and tasteless in fashion, he made up for it with his pleasing smile, sense of humor, thoughtfulness, genuine religious attitude, and his great affection for us both. Seemingly, he was an all-around nice guy. And we had a lot in common. We even started going to his church. He had a degree in music, and he had gotten a part-time job playing the piano at church. Not only was he a musician, but he also had a strong testimony for the gospel. He also served as a Bible school teacher. On Sunday mornings and Bible study evenings, . . .
The Insights . . .
Don’t let that personality fool y’all. He was still a #devil in disguise. You are so right! I picked him and should have known what I had. Like so many others, we don’t see the trees for looking at the forest. When this happens, it becomes a lesson learned.
Often times, toxicity comes in your circle, and you don’t realize it’s toxic until you start dipping and dabbing in it. There is beauty in that realization; it’s when you can give it up and move on . . .
For sure, toxicity appears in all forms, shapes, and fashions. #Toxicity has no shame, no gender, no preference who it targets. You may think you’ve found quality in a person, but wind up with the devil himself. No matter how they tend to dress themselves up in character; some things never change!

Pretty! This has been an incredibly wonderful post. Many thanks for supplying this information.
Greetings Valentin:
Pleased to know you’ve found me. I appreciate your kind words. There is a lot to understand and become aware of when toxicity is involved. However, I do appreciate it when readers review my literary creation(s). So, have you checked out my memoir (the e-book or audible version), “Not a Blueprint It’s the Shoe Prints that Matter?” It has won seven awards already. The audible makes a great choice – all it takes is an ear, no reading. Now, is the time to engulf yourself with a good read. Call it stimulus support (smile). It’s not an easy task making others aware of my e-book or audible book. I can’t go it alone, but with your help, we can make it happen. Please share the news in your circle. Thanks a bunch!

Perhaps, her comment has some validity to it (smile). I appreciate

Hello Dominick:
Thanks for your comments. Glad to know you embraced it all (website and postings). Well, I’ll tell ya . . .
Once you’ve been on a journey and made it back, it can be relatively easy to spread the news about the life lessons. I feel there’s no better educator than life itself. Guess, you can say that I speak from experience. In spite of my hectic schedule, I do tend to limit my postings and use videos or images along with the message. Just a preference of mine.
There are postings where I have a broken into sections for blogging; especially, when it’s a long-winded topic. I must confess: I write when it hits me. Perhaps, that’s why there’s NOT an abundance of daily postings. Oh yeah, there was a time frame I was in a horrible space for over three decades. All my thoughts during that period proved to be nothing but negative and dark. However, I will take your suggestion into consideration.
BTW, if you get an opportunity, check out my storybook, (e-book or audiobook), “Not a Blueprint It’s the Shoe Prints that Matter,” – it’s so full of life lessons. After reading, kindly leave a comment at Amazon. If you’re interested in a “free copy,” I can provide you with a code download, let me know. Also, it has won its fifth award, Book Excellence Award. Looking forward to your return; hopefully, see you soon!
