Boundary Setting: A Crucial Step in Personal Growth (January 17, 2023)

The following journal entry is a free flow/free thought exercise I utilized to deal with an increasingly tense situation me and my spouse, at the time, were dealing with involving our downstairs neighbor

I, much like my father, am very CONFRONTATIONAL. I prefer to attempt to deal with things directly in hopes to squash the proverbial “BEEF” before it gets all dried up and tough like “JERKY”. However, when it came to the neighbor, I did not want to emasculate my spouse by being aggressive and direct and instead, utilized my journals as a way to manage my stress about the many issues we were dealing with in regard to our neighbor. 

The situation eventually escalated into something much larger and more sinister resulting in the demise of my marriage and my discovery that my spouse, whom I trusted at the time, was actually involved in a very long term, full blown assault on me, my reality, and my life. 

My spouse recruited a number of people including some of my long term friends, acquaintances, and this downstairs neighbor, “SGT”, to assist him in a diabolical plan to end our marriage in the most indirect, drawn out, sequence of events that play out like a horror movie. 

As my journal entries progress through 2023 into early 2024 much more will be revealed – at least from my perspective – to say that I still have no idea what my spouses “truth” and “end game” is would been a SEVERE UNDERSTATEMENT to say the least. The situation continues to play out in real time. This whole ordeal has taught me one of the most harsh and important lessons in life – YOU NEVER TRULY KNOW ANYONE DESPITE WHAT YOU THINK, EXPERIENCE, AND BELIEVE ABOUT THEM – UNLESS YOU’RE WITH SOMEONE 24/7 AND IN THEIR MIND – YOU CAN BE SHARING YOUR LIFE WITH A MONSTER WEARING A MASK WITH EXPERT PRECISION – AND WHEN THE MASK COMES OFF – YOUR ENTIRE WORLD, LIFE AND REALITY WILL BE RIPPED APART AND FLIPPED UPSIDE DOWN IN AN INSTANT, much like mine.

The story as told in the podcast, social media accounts and the website  is based on my understanding and perspective, and should not be interpreted as factual claims about any individual or entity without further verification. The names and places have been changed or left cryptic to protect the accused. My name has also been changed to protect myself from my ex as he continues to drag out the divorce process – a divorce he filed for – in court

I see SGT has put a sticker on his truck “Lions not Sheep”

Me, thinking to myself having this conversation in my head – 

Launa – “what’s up lion country safari?”

SGT – “HUH?”

Launa – “your sticker seems to infer that you’re a Lion – assuming you mean – Leader / Nomad / Loan Roamer / Nonconforming. Interesting that you purchased a mass produced sticker that is consumable to the masses and predominantly purchased by others sharing your same beliefs and ways of life. The very antithesis of what it is you’re trying to identify as…….But……ok.”

By definition the lion is the most social of the wild species. They exist in Prides consisting of 4 males – some adult females and cubs. An amalgamation of the families – so the statement of “Lions not Sheep” makes ZERO F&*$ING SENSE. But hey, YOU do YOU. 

Unique and a leader?

By being a lion? 

OK. You’re not wild, you pay taxes and by doing that, you’re part of a system. Just like the sheep. YOU. F&*$ING. IDIOT.

I urge you to read about the flock behavior of sheep and tell us how you’re DIFFERENT because when I read it – it sounds much more like ya’ll’s (the sheep behavior) than the lion. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
