Hello People!!! Yet another post from the "Chosen One" of Bakersfield. I live a ridiculously hard life as a Chosen one and when I explain how hard my life is and or was to co-workers or anyone, they don't believe me. I guess as a Chosen One we are so well equipped to handle the torturous life that people and our family throw at us that by the time we are old and explain how awful our lives are, nobody believes us because we show practically no outward signs of anything out of the ordinary. It is Christmas, and I hope my mother and family don't call me or come to my place. It is a sign of disrespect when you just show up at someone’s house like you own the place which is what they did last year...an insult to me as an adult, but that is how my relationship is with my family. I am seriously considering filing a restraining order on them. I nearly did a few years back but did not go through with it. My only consolation is that my family suffers for what they did to me!!! I am seen by the whole family as the opposition so they will never tell me if they are suffering. Judging by the looks of it I am guessing they are, but my mother is so good at putting up a facade of strength even though she is weak. It is annoying to see your mother be all about appearances and not actual mothering but then again, she is just like that only towards me someone she cannot beat. I am doing well at my job and in a groove just working. I am beginning to think my co-workers are trying to sabotage my physical fitness. I find it sad that instead of celebrating someone that has stayed athletic till 50 years old people only want to destroy it. Everywhere I go they just want to destroy me. Being a Chosen is a hard life, and you will grow to hate people! Till next time! MAHALLO!
