Wow!!! I can't believe the response I got to my blog. It has been the first time that I have had comments at all so was quite thunderstruck this morning to find t he response I did. I obviously hit a nerve in someone ( and I know who the someone is despite them hiding behind the cowardly name of anonymous).
What I am most amazed about that I obviously am on someone's mind enough and made a big enough impact to get and equally big response- albeit a negative one. In case they can't tell, I am letting go of negativity and embracing positivity which might be a lesson for Anonymous to learn as well. Again, perhaps Anonymous could also look at themselves and see if they are perfect. Obviously they think they are. Well bully for you. Your comments are really a low blow in my opinion and totally uncalled for. And hey they aren't even original! Please at least have the guts to be original.....or perhaps you can't think for yourself? Don't think I don't blame myself everyday for where I am in my life in general and more specifically with my horse I do, I am trying to do something about it.....
"Anonymous" obviously missed the whole point of my entry on pondering a question. Anonymous is all about me being to blame for my issues... and hey I do believe that was the thread of my entry. How I was accepting responsibility for the decisions I have made and am trying to rectify them. How I had made poor decisions and didn't trust my instincts and gut soon enough.
Anyone who really needs to use a public forum or social media to bash people to make themselves feel better then another-- there is a word for you-- CYBER BULLY. Anyone who posts 9 times under the same name ( Anonymous) with every entry along the same vein is the same person make no mistake. You know, maybe one entry would have been legitimate as each is allowed an opinion- but to post 9 times is a bit extreme and enters the realm of bullying. Although you will likely say "Oh there she is playing victim again"-- well sorry but you turned me into the victim yourself so you have only yourself to blame by bullying on social media.
You have been successful though in taking away my joy and happiness of my blog. And yes, I am sitting here with trembling hands and heart pounding and tears welling because THAT is the type of person I am. Soft and loving and a dreamer.And I'd rather be that type of person that the type who would pull a flower out of the ground and rip its petals off just so someone who enjoys the flower can't anymore.Hope you feel very proud of yourself...Small mindedness in its extreme. Your comments come from a mean and nasty frame of mind, closed heart.... not the openness of heart and soul and love that my entries come from.I feel very sorry for you. And yes just yesterday I posted how I am learning to let go of negativity and forgive. So to really tick you off, I am going to do that. You obviously are not quite emotionally developed yet, and so I will forgive you as I would a child. If you ever choose to put out an olive branch of friendship I would accept. Because life is too short to harbour hatred and malice.
Oh my gosh, that sounds nasty. I for one think it's great to be able to let go of negativity, and writing is a great tool for releasing negative energy. I enjoyed your blog. What's disturbing though is that it seems as if you are being stalked in some way. It's not a nice feeling to think there is someone out there who watches what you do and say, until the hatred builds up enough to cause an over the top reaction. That is so unhealthy. The good thing is that these people are generally cowards when it comes to face to face interaction - it's very easy to sit at a keyboard and be poisonous but not so easy to be head-on confronted. There are lots of toxic people in this world and the ones we know like to think they have some power over us. Anyway, chin up, girl. You don't need to be trembling and tearful. Be strong, move on. ((((Hugs))))
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words. You are right in that someone posted on another blog I follow that I had commented on and again vitriol exploded into being. So that is how I know who wrote the comments- they are in exactly the same vein and wording. My initial reaction was a total grief reaction- shock, anger, wanting to strike out, but then finally acceptance. I will not allow someone to steal my hard fought for gains in happiness and positivity. I HAVE grown and changed since Raphi came into my life as someone pointed out to me. And it is that which I choose to acknowledge and hold onto. And so my anger, tears and grief have given way to quiet surrender of what is--- that there is someone out there who doesn't like me-- and you know what? I'm starting to work on being okay with that. So Anonymous has unknowingly given me a powerful tool to improve myself and my life and grow.
