people have their opinions .. some are good and some are just way off centre.
I guess we have to learn to take what helps us and ignore the statements that are destructive.
Constructive feedback is good, outright criticism is just plain mean!
Thanks for your post, I enjoyed reading it. I hope the rest of your day is great.

Hi Whitt,
I agree with everything that you have written, I too will miss Mamacita, and I too hope that she may come back to us.
I have much more I wish to say and I worry about the judgement of other people. But I came up with a sort of solution. I have actually opened a file that is for all my post. I write them as I feel the need to write them. And then when I am ready to post them I cut and paste them on to thoughts. It is a way to realise what I need to say when I need to say. And I only post them when I am truly ready. And it has help. It clears the mind at the time I need too. At the moment I have about 15 post that I haven't blogged yet. Maybe one day I will, and maybe one day I wont. But for now thy are out of my mind instead of clogging it up. |

| You are so right KP. You know I thought about making a blog that doesn't have my name on it but I can get my thoughts out there and see other people's opinions... yet I know that still even though my name isn't on it, I'd still feel the sting of other's words. |

| Nice post, Whit! I'm seeing a common thread between posts this morning. I'm really hopeful that Mamacita comes back. I did, however, get her email address so that I can stay in touch with her...& maybe convince her to come back. ;) |

I like to remember this little saying
" You're braver then you believe and stronger than you seem and smarter than you think. " something I've learned over the years and is ALWAYS GO WITH YOUR GUT... if it feels wrong .....stop it . Its that simple...and yes its that SIMPLE.
If its something you feel srongly about then go for it .... and never look back. |

"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent." -- Eleanor Roosevelt
What do others know ... are they the expert on you? ... I think not! It would be like your auto mechanic giving a comment on what was wrong with your furnace. That's my thought process when people say unkind things to me.
I also find it hard to get my thoughts organized and since I'm a very private person it's hard to put them out there for all to see. I loved KP's idea about making a folder and writing for just me and then deciding whether I want to post or not. Definitely will give that a try. Wishing you a peaceful night's rest. Being an insomniac myself I know how that can be. Peace. |

I think we have to take comments at their value. I have developed some friendships here and those comments would have more weight for me than a strangers. I like the Eleanor Roosevelt quote above and completely agree.
Maybe something is in the air because I usually sleep pretty well and lately I've been seeing wierd accidents or bugs in my dreams. |
