Last Night

Another dream prompt. More about monsters and stuff the more you get into it. Don’t really have a whole plot to it, but the first part was interesting enough that I might do some sort of second part if I feel like holding onto this idea. We will see how into detail I get into this. 

There was a house that everyone knew of in the middle of the forest behind the high school, where we weren’t allowed to go. The high school staff would tell us that sometimes kids would go in there and get lost and would never be seen again. I called BS on that, but they actually had video evidence of people going into the woods and the staff had missing reports of every kid that went in there. After that, I didn’t really care to go into the forest, but the group of teenagers I hung out with at the time were very interested in seeing the house in the middle of the forest. As hesitant as I was, I wasn’t going to let them just go on their own. So, I guess I was going with them. There were 5 of us all together; 2 boy, both one grade above us and 3 girls, including me, all of us juniors. We all grew up together. We figured the boys would try to pull some prank on us, a simple one just to joke around. But whatever they had planned, we didn’t get to laugh about because we found it. A house in the middle of a large field. The entire property surrounded by trees. The house was kind of Victorian, at least that’s what we guessed. To me, it just looked Gothic. We all said that we wanted to go see the house, but one of the girl suggested just one person go up there to make sure its safe first. The two boys looked at each other with worried looks. I don’t blame them. It was the middle of the night, the moon was full in the sky, everything seems to be black and gray out here and the whole thing just screamed bad vibes... well, not literally because that would just be horrible.  The boys decided to do rock, paper, scissors to see who was going to be the first one to go up there. The girls were very focused on the match, mostly because the boys were being stupid and picking the same thing over and over again. I figured they would be too chicken to actually go to the house. I suggested loudly that we just head back home before we forget the way that we came in.  No one heard me, of course. They were all too focused on who would win the game. I groaned, knowing that whoever was going to go up there wasn’t going to actually spend anytime admiring the house up close. So I took out my phone, no service of course, and opened up the camera to take some pictures. I started walking closer to the house to get a better look and that when i heard someone say one of the boy’s names. He must have been the loser in rock, paper, scissors. Right after the guy was chosen, I heard a collective gasp. Glad to know they finally saw me walking up to the house now.  I had just gotten through the field when the realized and I was on some sort of gravel drive. I got my camera out again and took some more pictures. The house had two tall towers on either side of the house. The house was three stories... maybe four. It was a very pretty house. I thought the pictures were coming out great, but then I heard everyone yelling my name. I turned around to see what they were yelling about when I felt two large hands on my shoulders. I ducked under the hands and took a few steps away so I could turn around to see the individual. He was tall, dressed in a suit, bald with a big beard, and overall, quite terrifying. I started to run away from the man when I felt him grab me again and this time, he threw me over his shoulder. I looked at where everyone had been and just barely saw them running into the forest. At least, they were going to be safe. I didn’t really expect them to come and save me. They were all pretty wimpy when it came to fighting. I guess this is where I die. The man was taking me into the house when I remembered I still had my phone on me. I turned the camera around and took some pictures of me entering the house, going through the grand entrance and into a room with a long carpet that led to a couple of stairs and eventually led to a small couch. On either side of the room were pools the length of the room so deep that I couldn’t see the bottom. The man placed me on the ground a few feet from stairs. I put my phone in my back pocket and looked at him.  “Now what?” I asked him. “Are you going to torture and kill me now? Or was throwing me over your shoulder just your way of inviting me to tea?” Not the best time to be sarcastic, but I was pretty freaked out and I’d rather go out calm and collected-ish rather than panicking and screaming.  “I am neither going to torture and kill you nor am I going to give you tea.” A voice said from behind me. I looked up the stairs and found a man sitting on the couch. Well... rather, he was draped across the couch. “I want to know what you are doing on this property and what you want.” I swallowed. “In all honesty, I didn’t even want to be here. I was just following everyone else and I wanted to see the house up close because I thought it was pretty cool looking, very Goth-Victorian kind of cool. Its totally my aesthetic. Really love it.” The man looked at me. He had long dark hair and a very light skin color. He was dressed to match the house. A dark coat-jacket-thing that had many layers and a lot of accessories. He wore a white blouse-shirt with a lot of ruffles in the front and on his wrists, had very tight leather pant and was barefoot. He was very Gothic-Victorian.  “I don’t appreciate you trespassing onto my family’s property. I believe there is only one way to settle this.” He said before he stood up and began walking to me where I sat on the ground. Many thoughts were going through my head. What was the only way to settle this? Slavery? Sex? Sex Slave?... Okay well not many. Those were the only options that had been going through my head. I would have preferred none of them.  “The only way to settle this...” he began before he knelt in front of me and got incredibly close to my face. “is death.” He finished. My eyes widened and I couldn’t stop the loud “What?” that came out. “Death. You trespassed onto my property so you must die.” I looked at him with bewilderment. He couldn’t have been serious. I’ve heard of trespassers would be shot, but I didn’t see any warning of death to trespassers anywhere on the property.  “Brother, you aren’t thinking straight. Perhaps, I should take over this matter?” Another voice spoke from my side. The man in front of me looked over at the voice and I followed suit. To my astonishment, I found another man inside the pool.  “I don’t need you to take over this matter. I’ve already decided that she is going to die.” He spoke harshly as he stood up and walked over to the couch once again. He started rummaging around behind the couch, probably to find something to kill me with. “Pst.” I heard from my side once again. It was the man in the pool. He was waving for me to come over. He was smiling at me. “Come on.” I crawled over to the man. “Don’t worry. My brother has the sickness right now. He should be over it in a few days and then he will apologize for his behavior and let you go.” I blinked at the man. “What do I do until then?” I felt the man grab my hand and he slid a pearl bracelet on it. I looked at him again and he was still smiling at me. “Don’t worry and keep breathing.” He said before he pulled me into the pool. I gasped as I hit the water and felt the water enter my mouth and lungs, but... it wasn’t painful, like drowning. It was like I was breathing normally, just underwater. “Just keep breathing. Its alright. Its normal.” I looked at him and nearly squealed in surprise. The man wasn’t really a man at all... he was a merman?... I had so many questions. 

I’m gonna stop right there because I didn’t really have a whole lot else planned out completely, but some elements were from my dream. There was a merman and a house in a field. I don’t remember a lot else though... So I’ll figure something out.

“Why is self-love important?” 👇 you might ask. For many of us, self-love might sound like a luxury rather than a necessity — or a new-age fad for those with too much time on their hands. 😊 Ironically, however, self-care and -compassion might actually be needed most by those of us who work too hard and who are constantly striving to surpass ourselves and grasp the shape-shifting phantasm of perfection. 😊 Most of the time, when we’re being too hard on ourselves, we do it because we’re driven by a desire to excel and do everything right, all the time. This entails a lot of self-criticism, and that persecutory inner voice that constantly tells us how we could’ve done things better is a hallmark of perfectionism. 😊 Studies have shown that perfectionists are at a higher risk of several illnesses, both physical and mental, and that self-compassion might free us from its grip. Therefore, perfectionism and self-compassion are inextricably linked.😊 . . . .

So I told my mom that if I can find a guy like him funny, little bit crazy, smart, and just freakin adorable. I would marry him in a heart beat. So while my brother is in the restroom he yells "who are you marrying!?" and I answer back "Spencer Reid!" Still from the restroom come this answer "WOH-HOO!!" #spencerreid #mgg #criminal minds #strangebrothers

" STAY SINGLE UNTIL SOMEONE ADDS VALUE TO YOUR LIFE, BE WITH SOMEONE WHO HELPS YOU TO GROW OTHERWISE IT AIN'T REALLY WORTH IT " . . How to Build a Healthy Relationship? 👇 . Strong relationships are continually nurtured with care and communication. Although relationships can take many forms, certain traits have been shown to be especially important for healthy relationships. 😊 Each individual should, for starters, feel confident that their partner is willing to devote time and attention to the other. They must both also be committed to accommodating the differences and challenges that inevitably emerge. 😊 In the 21st century, good relationships are generally marked by a sense of fairness, emotional as well as physical—particularly in the distribution of chores necessary to maintain a household. Partners in strong relationships also feel grateful for one another, openly provide and receive affection, and engage in honest discussions about sex. 😇 In good relationships, partners try to afford their partner the benefit of the doubt, which creates a sense of being on the same team in life. That feeling, maintained over the long term, can help couples overcome many difficulties. . . . . . @Mroyempire 👈 follow . . . #Mroyempire #seekwithseeker #strangebrothers #instalife #relationshipquotes #lifeisgood #loveofmylife #relationshipsgoals #lifestyle #relationshipcoaching #relationshiprules #relationshipstatus #relationshipcoach #prilaga #relationshipgoals😍 #relationshipgoal #relationshipproblems #luxurylifestyle #relationshiptips #relationshipexpert #relationshipbuilding #relationshipgoals #lifegoals #relationshipquote #lifequotestagram #relationshipquotesandsayings #life #relationshipgoals❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/B8-eGmDjPqd/?igshid=u4z7zqpy2uvk

Our values inform our thoughts, words and actions. . Our values are important because they help us to grow and develop. They help us to create the future we want to experience. . Every individual and every organisation is involved in making hundreds of decisions every day. The decisions we make are a reflection of our values and beliefs, and they are always directed towards a specific purpose. That purpose is the satisfaction of our individual or collective (organizational) needs. . When we use our values to make decisions, we make a deliberate choice to focus on what is important to us. When values are shared, they build internal cohesion in a group. . . . Follow @Mroyempire 👈 . . .

Happy world radio day. . Despite being over 100 years old, the radio is one of the most popular ways to exchange information, provide social interchange, and educate people all over the world. It has been used to help people, including youth, to engage in discussions on topics that affect them. It can save lives during natural or human-made disasters, and it gives journalists a platform to report facts and tell their stories. The first World Radio Day was officially celebrated in 2012. .

#Marketing has been a story of eras: from mass marketing to the direct marketing era to digital marketing, and now data-driven marketing.😃 . As marketing strategy changes and marketing resources shift, so do consumers and #customer loyalty — today, consumers use more devices, ad blockers and other privacy protection tools, and still have increasingly sophisticated customer experience expectations. 😊 . And make no mistake: if you’re not meeting those expectations customers will find someone who will, as according to Forrester Analytics, 54% say they’re willing to experiment in any market.😇 Unfortunately, in their efforts to deliver data-driven marketing and high-quality customer experiences, marketers have stumbled. For example, in many cases, their attempts to build data-rich customer profiles created data hoarding practices and broke customer trust when the extent of some companies’ profiling became public (see Facebook and Cambridge Analytics). 😐 . Or consider that when marketers recognized the growth of values-driven consumers, they tried to appeal to them with values-focused messaging, but sometimes at the cost of authenticity, like when a car reseller announced it was pulling advertising from a television show it hadn’t bought media in years just to take a stand against in a controversy.😃😃😊 . .

When you invest in your personal development you take responsibility for your life, your circumstances and your happiness. You become the agent, the doer, and the effecter.😊 . potentialIf, on the other hand, you sit back and don't make the effort to take charge of your life you set yourself up for events to affect you. If you're unprepared and not proactive you will end up reacting to, rather than affecting what is going on around you.😊 . It would be like being on a boat that springs a leak. If you haven't prepared for the possibility, you'll be scrambling around bailing out water, panicking, and hoping you don't sink. If, however, you had anticipated this could happen, you have the proper tools handy, you fix the leak, secure your vessel and proceed with your journey.😊 . Two very different responses to the same obstacle. 👇 So it is with life. Nothing is guaranteed or always goes smoothly as planned. Not your job, your relationships, your health or anything else. Given that uncertainty, in order to make your life work, you have to plan, set goals, prepare and bring your best game (the best you). . Where do you start? 👇 Once again you start with yourself . You invest in your personal development and work on being the best that you can be.😊 👇 When you do, everything else comes together in seemingly effortless fashion - your relationships, your work, your home life, and your over-all sense of well-being. This doesn't mean that there aren't challenges and obstacles. There always are. It just means that you are better equipped to handle them.😊 . How do you go about it? 👇 Devise an personal development action plan or checklist to follow. It can be flexible and serve as a guide or outline for what you want to accomplish. Write it in journal or chart format so you can monitor your progress.😊 . . .

" Having a Growth Mindset Makes It Easier to Develop New Interests " . “[T]echnology alone is not enough— it’s technology married with liberal arts, married with the humanities, that yields us the results that make our heart sing. ” — Steve Jobs 😊 Steve Job's vision for Apple was rooted in the belief that the arts and sciences do not live in isolation. They complement and enhance each other. John Lasseter, chief creative officer at Pixar, echoed this sentiment stating, “Technology inspires art, and art challenges the technology. ” .😊 But even though integrating these areas can be necessary for innovation, too many people confine themselves to only one.😊 . . . @Mroyempire 👈 follow. . #iPhone #businesscoach #mindsetcoaching #businesscard #networkingbusiness #businessopportunity #businessowners #prilaga #growthmindset #mindsetcoach #businesstips #mindset #businesswoman #millionairemindset #businessmen #businessathome #successmindset #businessmindset #businessowner #businesstrip #businessman #business #businesspassion #businessgoals #entrepreneurmindset #Mroyempire #seekwithseeker #strangebrothers https://www.instagram.com/p/B86Vv7hjQeg/?igshid=1wqfr5sblwm15

Have you thought about what you want to be doing in five years' time? Are you clear about what your main objective at work is at the moment? Do you know what you want to have achieved by the end of today?😊 . If you want to succeed, you need to set goals. Without goals you lack focus and direction. Goal setting not only allows you to take control of your life's direction; it also provides you a benchmark for determining whether you are actually succeeding. 😊 . Think about it: having a million dollars in the bank is only proof of success if one of your goals is to amass riches. If your goal is to practice acts of charity, then keeping the money for yourself is suddenly contrary to how you would define success.😊 . To accomplish your goals, however, you need to know how to set them. You can't simply say, "I want" and expect it to happen. Goal setting is a process that starts with careful consideration of what you want to achieve, and ends with a lot of hard work to actually do it.😊 . . .. . @Mroyempire 👈 follow .
