I’ll go first!
We can all live without something unwanted in our life. But, unfortunately, things and people will keep popping up to cause our nerves to become rattled or get on our damn nerves.
There are several things that I can live without, but the one major one is ARGUING!
I will agree and walk away, then stick around and go back and forth with someone. At this point in my life, all I want is PEACE If you can’t offer me that, then I will dump you off at the city dump where you belong and never look back.
When I was younger, I found it normal to waste time arguing my point with anyone and everyone. If I felt that my cause was accurate, I found it difficult to back down.
Geesh, I wasted valuable time that I will never get back!
Now you go!

You could have chosen any blog to read, but you chose mine, and I’m honored!

I can’t agree more. I find I start to say something, to fight a point, and I stop myself and say, what the heck, it’s just not worth it. Great point!
Exactly Brian!! It isn’t worth getting all worked up.I could kick myslef for doing this.
Mine is negativity! I’m trying to get my hubby to be more positive because every time I get in the car with him, he expects the worst of people, or the worst situation that could happen. Drives me insane!
Music. I can’t live without music 🎶 ☺️
I’m with you on that. Negativity will drive me insane. Maybe the move is wearing him thin, ya think? But even so I totally understand your point. Music I cannot live without that as well.
I can live without toxic people… life is too short to bring toxicity into our lives and allow it to stay.
My hubby said he can live without bad drivers. Road rage is on the rise in our area and bad drivers only escalate the problem.
You are both right and I agree!!!
Road rage is something I refuse to be apart of. People are crazy and There is no telling what folks will do if you join in on the rage l!!!
True… you might get shot. So scary…
Exactly!!!!!!!
I can live without tailgating in cars when I am on my way to work Monday morning. What is your hurry?
RIGHT!!!!! Like slow down or leave on time!! I feel your pain.
I can live without inconsiderate, ungrateful, and irate patients. Truly, I can. They make some of my workdays so unbearable.
Tre I can’t even imagine!!!! That has to be tiresome and annoying.
Yes, ma’am. But for every irate patient, I probably get about six who aren’t and are exceptionally friendly. So, I’ll take those odds, but you know … It gets old rather quickly with evil people. Lol.
Glad you do have a afew bright spots! Those evil folks are just searching for someone to take thier issues out on. Ridiculous!
The one thing I can live without is people from my high school. Don’t need that kind of small town negativity to bring me down– and explains why I’m not on FB.
Oohhhhh Ally you nailed it! I have like 40 friends on facbook. I cleeared all those people out. I use to roll my eyes as I read each stattus update.
Hypocrisy
AMEN!!!!!!
I lived a large portion of my life in various drama-stories, some told to me, some I created, all toxic. When we hang on to these stories, we attract like-minded people into our lives. No más for me. No more drama for the sake of drama. I quit it a few years ago, and am much healthier for it. Thank you for this reflective space, Belladonna. Happy Saturday! 💜
Jeff I can not imagine you involved in nay drama. But like you I was once involved in too much drama. Enough is Enough.
Thank you so much for joining the conversation. I appreciate you my friend.
It’s been a few years, and each day without the constant drama is a day of more sanity and overall health. You’re most welcome, Belladonna. Always. Thank you, my friend, I appreciate you too.
I couldn’t agree more Jeff! Job well done.
Wow! Amazing post! I agree with you. We need to be in peace, we need to be positive, we need good vibes… Thank’s for share, Belladonna. Have a lovely weekend!
Amen Amen Amen!!!! Have a great week my friend!
Thank’s my friend!
You as well.
I can truly live without phoniness. I love sincerity and no longer have the patience required to deal with phony or disloyal people. Great post, my friend.💕
Grace Amen to that! I so agree, if you can’t be real or your true authentic self then please exit!
Absolutely 💕
peace and quiet
Oh for sure!!!!
I can live without the drama of dating ~ and I have been doing so for almost 6 years now! 🥳🥳🥳
Are the men to sex hungry or boring? One of my best friends just started dating and she says the men are being to forward
Both. And liars too…
Oh yuck!!!! Freakin losers!!!!
Arguing, thoughtless remarks, selfish gestures, hard to pick just one.
I agree with all of the above and yes it is so difficult to choose just one.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Lord most high the almighty God himself.
AMEN!!!!!!
Girl, you hit the nail on the head Belladonna. I too engaged in arguing a point because it made sense (to me). 😱 Honey chile, I’m like Mary J…no more freaking drama. I have enough to worry about. Word? 🤩👏🏼😊
Come throug Mary!!!!!!! Yes there are oter things that deserve our attention.
Booyah! There you go! 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Anger, dear Belladonna. Being angry create separation. Dear Grandmother taught me. Easier to fix problems with sugar than angry words.
She was wise. I’m definitely in that space of my life. It feels good to walk away and until you cool down.
I agree dear Belladonna. Old school way. Count to ten before you speak negative words.
Absolutely my friend!
Peace is important.
Yes!!!! Top of my list🙌🏽
Smoking
Oh yuck, same!!! I’m allergic to smoke and last time I was around a bunch of smokers I landed myself at urgent care
totally agree 👍 🥺
Thank you for stopping by!!! Appreciate you reading and taking the time to comment. 💜
I love my peace too and I need it with a side of quiet 🤫
Amen!!!!!! I know that’s right girlie! Me too🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I can’t agree more you have to cut people off to gain sanity in your life. Peace is a significant part of my sanity. Well said. 👍
Thank you Ebony! So appreciate seeing you over here. Yes peace is my main concern. Not being right or wrong just living in peace 💜
I can live without overthinking
Now that’s a big one! Overthinking can lead me to talking myself out of a great idea.
Absolutely. Getting worked up for nothing you can use that same energy for yourself positivity is contagious.
Girl!!!! It really is. Thank you so much for commenting 💜💜💜
You’re welcome it’s great to see like minded people sharing and dropping gems love it babe!!
Right!!! Me too🙌🏽💜
I totally get what you mean. My hubby and in laws will go round and round. They have to be right lol I’m like no really. If they still do not agree, I just say okay and move on. Doesn’t matter who is right, what matters is that both parties walk away better than they entered the conversation.
Exactly!!!! That’s truly one thing that will het on my nerves. My mom is the same way😩
