You are who you are, and that's why you will always have the friends you do, well written,and I agree with Brockavitch, 5 stars and more if we had them.

I don't like being judged by people who have never interacted with me in any way, shape or form and base. Thanks, Skip. =)

You are a beautiful individual whom I'm thankful for being able to get to know via this site. Your writings are always a favorite of mine to read. As long as you know who YOU are then that's all that matters. Pfft to those that aren't accepting! They don't know who they're missing out on getting to know!

Aww thank you, Ashley! =) I can't be the only one who receives such immature emails. I wonder why some women are so damn catty. =/

Well Miss Awesome Blossom, frankly I find it disturbing a person could / would send you such an email. How rotten! Just print out the good ones and refer to those whenever you feel down. Ignore the jerks. You are correct, no one needs to tell you who you are as you are well on your way to figuring that out yourself. Pay no mind to the fools. I am sorry for the hurtful, senseless idiots. There is no need for comparisons as you are your own person.

I was annoyed rather than hurt. Receiving such mail has been a regulat occurrence since I've been at T.com...normally I would let it be like water off a duck's back, however, the latest mail had me wondering how many people receive such mail as well. Thank you so much for your sentiments. =)

B. is so right, a five star blog, but she didn't star it. I will. :)

I might be somewhat naive, but really, hate mail?! People actually do that?

You're a beautiful girl who seems to know who you are, and that's the important thing.

Yes, they do...I honestly don't know why people bother. Thank you for your kind words. =)

Gee! I never get mail...now I'm sort of glad about that.
Strange that people would take the time, energy and effort to express "their" opinions of "you" and be nasty about it in some case. I just don't get it. And comparing yourself to your sister...that's just uncalled for and inconsiderate beyond words!
You are YOU! and your list seems to express that wonderfully and THAT is what matters.

Wait until you write a blog that may be a little controversal or steps on the toes of someone (unmeaningly)...you'll receive plenty of mail. ;) People are odd and I think the internet bolsters the courage for someone to be nasty for whatever reason. It's not such an uncommon thing. Thank you, librarygirl. =)

I must admit I did not know Syd...was not around here back then... So I tend to take you for what you show...and wait to see more.

As for hate mail ~ it is a fact of Life on these sites with interactive blogs... I field them all the time ~ and I sure nuff understand the irritation or frustration ...

Blog on and enjoy your thoughts.

Thank you, Universal. =) Hate mail does seem to be an inherent part of internet life. A rant now and again is good for the soul. ;)

I wrote a blog about people judging others that have absolutely NO clue what that person is about..on the inside. You can go by what a person writes, just so much...then that's it. No one (not many anyhow) know's how any of us are in real life, no one has interacted with, walked with, sat down with, had a meal with, went visiting with them at their home with...them/us. So how can people judge another unless they have interacted with them in person? Its just stupid ignorant people that can write hate mail when they have not a clue what they are talking about.
It infuriates me so much.
Bia you know I think you are a beautiful person, inside and out. I don't see anything fake, phony, stupid, dumb or any of those hateful adjectives...about you. You know who your friends are..and they..are the ones that count.

...dani

You stated the point so eloquently and perfectly, Dani. It is not the fact that I received the emails that brought on my annoyance, it was the judgement contained within...judgement formed without even knowing me. I don't know if the latest email is from a new user or an established member in disguised, from the content of the missive I would ssay the latter.

Dani, thank you kindly for your positive words. =)

Really, you got sent nasty mail?.WOW I think you rock Angel Face, I have never been sent any negative mail to my surprise, and I'm shocked you have, you are Great Bia and I'm glad you know your strengths :)...x.x.x.

((Hugs)).

Who would ever want to send you negative mail, Sara? You're a lovely soul. =) Thank you. *hugs*

Nasty mail from folks who are full of anger for whatever reasons. They are playing the game, pass the suffering. They suffer, they try to inflict suffering. It's an easy game to play chosen by people who can't invent another game. I admire what you say here. You say with it conviction and dignity. And may I say, it is to your excellence that you express it in a such a respectful way. Well done!

Sending mail of an unpleasant nature does tend to say a lot more about the sender than it does about me...their own hangups and insecurities. Thank you for your kind sentiment, your words are always appreciated, Greunie. =)

No one should be telling you who you are. It's not up to them to decide. So, to put it very bluntly... fuck em.

I thought the world of your sister and I think the world of you. Again, fuck those who thought they knew her and who think they know you and try to compare the two of you.

Straight to the point, ADH, yep, fuck 'em.

The feeling is mutual as you know...Syd thought the world of you, as do I. =)

People need to mind their own business. You are who you are, and that my dear, is who you should be! In my opinion, whoever takes issue with that has more issues with themselves than they can handle... I wouldnt bother gracing their ill spoken words with a reply!!!
and kudos to you for standing up to them Blossom :)

Azalia! We do not have the pleasure of seeing you at T.com as much any more. :(

Thank you for the warmness of your words; and you are absolutely right, people should mind their own business. =)

There will always be the little people, the haters - ignore them and move on! Great rant! You KNOW who you are and you are your own person! XX

Perfectly put, Miss Ellie, thank you. =)

hi...

if someone sends you 'hate mail', then you already know the type of person they are.
explains a lot, doesn't it?

i actually enjoy it.
i never respond and then i imagine them roasting in their juices!!
hehehe... sometimes cruelty is justified...

cheers!
:)

LOL!! Thanks for the laugh, Sticky! =D

Makes me wish we had a feature on our computers that allowed us to actually reach out and slap the shit out of someone... did I type that? Why yes, yes I did.
Blossom (Bia) - be you. That's all anyone can ask of you. Those who can't handle it, dont like it - can take a long walk off a short pier.

Jealousy. It all comes down to jealousy. You are smart, stunningly beautiful, articulate, have an eye to the future with your career and you are sweet natured, there are people who are so mean spirited that all they can do is try to cut people like you down. They're so eaten up by jealousy that they'll do anything to poison the bright light that you are. Believe in yourself, know that there are people who love and respect, and know you for the beautiful human being that you are. (:
