I have had it with other people (you know who you are) taking from the content of the very important and informative blogs that are posted. Some include such beautiful poems and yet there are a few people that insist on finding a way to turn it into their own personal platform, make disparaging comments about people if they agree or show support for the posted blog and even go as far as asking each individual why they feel the way they do as if they are actually entitled to an answer. I can't begin to count the number of times people have been told they are not intelligent people because they do not transcribe to the position of another person's platform, called all types of names and believe that the reason their comments are deleted is because people are fearful of words. Which is the not the case. Most comments are deleted because they have nothing to do with the blog, may include insults towards either the writer of the blog or the people commenting on the blog. Under no circumstance will I tolerate nor entertain someone's negativity toward myself or towards others. I will not respond to the ignorance of others nor will I engage in a conversation with another person on someone elses blog post, especially if the question has nothing to do with said posted blog. Some people need to understand that independent thinkers are just that and do not have to go along with another persons idea if they so choose not to. Some people also need to accept that fact that regardless to what one may say, if someone is not interested they are just not interested period and regardless to the level of antagonistic behavior towards those that don't agree, it will not make them give up and give in to the person doing the antagonizing. Everyone has the opportunity to post their own blogs, which gives them a chance to put forth what they want to put forth, if you get comments fine and if you don't then so be it. If you choose to have a one on one conversation with someone that has nothing to do with the posted blog, then be respectful and do it on your own time in your own blog.

Sometimes even when we know it is just better to keep our mouths shut instead of feeding the fire, well it is hard not to be provoked, isn't it?

Your very welcome Mrs. Irma. I will not and refuse to have anyone tell me what is, what isn't and what should be based on their opinions. It has nothing to do with a fear of someones words, but if I don't want to be bothered with the BS I won't be bothered and I suggest that you do the same. Ever notice that I will completely bypass somethings and never respond to it, because I won't give rise to nonsense. I have stated my thoughts, feelings and opinions.

No problem Mrs. Irma and no need to apologize. I am and always have been a woman of my word and will continue to be. It is not that hard when you are being true to yourself nor should you internalize things from people, especially those that don't even know you as a person. I have noticed a lot of reverse psychology going on in order to drag someone in on the nonsense. Many of us have far more important things going on in our lives and that we want to share with others to help them in one positive productive way or another to be phased by nonsense.

Yes, LADIES...and I know that Siebra had the same complaint and voiced her opinions forcefully. I just wonder if you have received any feedback from those people you had in mind. In other words--did they get the message?

Hi Mrs. Irma, the person you mentioned can't put me down because he does not stand me up. He also were referencing that all of the comments made in my blog are about him, yet he is not the only person that is guilty of doing what I mentioned in my blog. I clearly say in my blog " You know who you are" if that is where he references then he admits he is guilty of doing what I mentioned in my blog. Either way, your more than welcome Mrs. Irma. (smiling back at you). @ Robert, you don't know me, so don't assume. Words are nothing to fear and ignorance will not be tolerated. I have read a number of things you have posted on the blogs of others and truly start to wonder if you and that other person, of which Mrs. Irma reference, are the same person. Reverse psychology does not work with me, regardless to how you attempt to package it. At the end of the day, like the blog title states: This is my blog and I keep what I want, delete what I want and that is the way it is!! Posting blogs is like opening the door to your home, just because people may knock on the door does not mean that everyone will be allowed to enter. Some people only want to bring negativity and insults towards others.

Steve, this is true if we are to busy /refuse to change our own selves instead of the other preson. I am the only one that "I" have to have in my life and my goal in life is to be happy...my doing this behavior does not make me happy... This is what my first comment is related to how "I" have changed after taking a good look at me.(smile)

Thank you my sister in spirit as "I" have been doing a lot of soul searching of my self on this very subject...like, "Irma, why are you your own self giving such endless contributions to this kind of behavior that you detest so much?"...putting an end to this behavior starts with my ending my contributions to this... Thank you(smile)

Marquerite, how can I thank you enough for this blog...and by the way it's having forced Harry to post his own blog THE PURPOSE OF BLOGGING to try and come after you. well, once again Harry's attempt to put you down by standing on your back to lift himself up has backed fired. So again thanks as he has been forced to go off on a blog of his that does not ask us to come serve him as our first prophet... This is more CHANGE for me to believe in. I have no idea if I should look at what Harry is doing as him showing he has hit a brick wall, an immovable object or just digging himself an endless pit. (falling on the floor laughing) Much love and this blog is truly a blessing.(smile)
