I am single and I’m in pain
This is one of those rare posts where I show you “live” how I work with my stuff. It’s full of seriously cool and useful concepts. At least 5 things that are Important to Know. First the back story I was in a Facebook conversation on the topic of “Single”. When suddenly I felt *anger*. Now, according to Karla McLaren, anger shows up when our boundaries have been crossed. Since I’m a HSP with very thin boundaries, and since I don’t get angry very often, I have learned to make the best out of my anger when it does show up. That is: I feel the anger, allow it to…

#YesAllWomen, Own Your Anger
I wasn’t going to publish this post, but Imo (my imaginary monster friend) said I should. So here it is. My take on the “#YesAllWomen” phenomenon. As some of you know, I was a “Feminist Writer” for many, many years. Eventually, I gave up Feminism due to reasons. Too much neurosis, too much pain.

You have to encounter the stuff that makes you look like a monster. You think I’m…

Possessive Squirrel Returns
So. Perhaps you thought last post was just a bit of harmless fun. Perhaps you thought “oh, this Mary… coming up with a funny squirrel…” Perhaps, like me, you completely underestimated the power of being possessive with your feelings. It happened last Sunday… I was at this event, and I ran into a guy I had met briefly once. I don’t know what I had just said to him, but he remarked… “you are always so angry”. I paused. And then I replied: “I’m not angry, I’m excited”. BOO YAH! Let’s look at this slowly… In my last post, I wrote about this huge realisation that came to me after…
