Operation Blues
Dedicated to you, who I will address as 'you' in the entirety of this message as you know who you are. The most important person in my life. The source of my unyielding attitude towards every binding situation I find myself in—situations happening in great volumes.

Rewire Your Brain, Change Your Life: The Abundance Mindset Explained
I am a failure! I don't think I can succeed in any new endeavor. My life has no meaning! How many times have you come across statements like this? Or how many times have you witnessed yourself say these notions aloud to yourself? Failures are a warranted swing in life that plonks you into rock bottom. But deeming yourself incapable of achieving your dreams because of the circumstances and downs in life, has less to do with what you have in your capacities and more to the way you perceive yourself and the life that you stride upon. The perception of your life that you hold for yourself is akin to the way everything in your life manifests into the reality you forge. The way we have been conditioned for years by our family, friends, and teachers, the books we read and the content we consume shape the beliefs that we hold for ourselves and the world around us.

The 'Ugliest' Woman In The World Rejected Over 20 Marriage Proposals
This lady was a performer and singer back in-time during the 19th century. At that time, she became one of the most renowned human curiosities, captivating audiences worldwide as the "bearded lady," both in life and even after her death. Julie Pastrana, was born in 1834, somewhere in the state of Sinaloa. She is an indigenous woman from Mexico, and was born with a rare genetic condition – hypertrichosis terminalis (or generalized hypertrichosis lanuginosa); her face and body were covered with straight black hair. Her nose and ears were unusually large, and her teeth were randomly irregular. The latter condition she had was caused by a rare disease, undiagnosed in her lifetime, gingival hyperplasia, which thickened her lips and gums and gave her a prominent jawline. Unbelievably mind-blowing! Countable forms of Pastrana's early life exist: Literature produced by those who managed and organized the freak shows she performed then described her as belonging to a Native American tribe that is called “Root Diggers” whose members were similar to apes and lived in caves. >> In this version, it is said that a woman particularly identified only as Mrs. Espinosa was kidnapped by the tribe and hid in a cave and when she was able to escape, took Pastrana with her. In another version, which is based on the saying of indigenous villagers in Ocoroni, Mexico, described Pastrana as a local girl whom they referred to as "wolf woman." >> In this form, tragically, Pastrana lived with her mother until she died. After which, her maternal uncle sold her to the circus, exploiting her appearance and earning substantial profits by presenting her as the World's Ugliest Woman. Both accounts claim that, at some point, she lived in the home of Pedro Sanchez, the reigning governor of Sinaloa then, and ran away from the home in 1854. But why did she decline over 20 marriage proposals? When Pastrana was purchased and brought to the United States by Francisco Sepúlveda(a customs official in Mazatlán), she performed well under the management of J.W. Beach. Despite her unconventional appearance, men were both curious and enchanted to be close to her.

I was working as a security guard at that time and was blessed with meeting some interesting people where mostly nice.

My Lovely Man Is A Vampire And I'm A Witch
A LIFE-REALISTIC vampire and his witch partner don’t just accept their dark sides on Halloween. For them, feedings are a year-round activity — and though she loves magic and he avoids sunlight, they insist not every myth that pops up in vampire lore is true. This is not mere fantasy. Author, musician, actor, and filmmaker Jack Townson, 36, and his partner, novelist and content creator Shayne Townson, 33, truly keep the magic alive, with Jack living as a vampire and Shayne as a witch. DEBUNKING THE MYTHS Speaking to The U.S. Sun, Jack insisted that readers and TV buffs shouldn’t believe everything about the supernatural that they’ve seen in pop culture. “Many of these things are just myths or fictionally crafted,” he said. “There are few things that are accurate, just not exactly. “I don’t walk out into the sunlight and burst into flames. I’m nothing like that — but does sunlight make me destabilized or tired or weak? Or get me sick? Absolutely. “Do I have a little aversion to garlic? A little bit. Yes, there are some intolerances there, but it could just be me,” he added. In nearly all modern vampire lore, these creatures of the night are immortal — piercing stakes notwithstanding — but Jack says that’s not true in real life.
