Everyone has different reasons for being on facebook or other social sites… I can only speak for myself…but try not to make assumptions about others motives… there is always room for misunderstanding and your own life experiences coloring your interpretation… that’s actually a part of why I love reading others comments in my posts, or their own posts…I love seeing people express themselves – be it in our connected way of being/thinking…or in the differences – bcs in that way I’m able to somewhat experience a life of which I may never know first hand…and I feel it gives me a better understanding of everything… just one more way for me to question myself. The internal journey of understanding, knowing and loving your own heart AND your ego is completely your own. Fb is like a worldwide book that is constantly changing – and you can see the characters grow and change – for the good or the bad… who cares if someone is bragging or just downright lame? Lol just ignore them or “unfollow” them. I mean, how often is it that you click 100% with someone, even your bestest friends ever? Therefore, how can you expect to reach your max potential growth (which I think is lifelong) solely by the group of people you are with? If you can, then you are so lucky and I’m so happy for you… We have this great tool – that I don’t think should be discounted due to people talking crap. You are a completely unique individual…a lot of my struggle in life was not feeling like I jived with my immediate environment or the people in it…I didn’t know that wasn’t’ required (on top of it, I’m a “soft” person deep down)…but others would make you believe otherwise. And I felt like there was something wrong with me…and its sad when people you love, respect and admire come down on you…that doesn’t make them right I don’t care how many hold them in esteem. Take what resonates with you at this time and leave the rest. in the end you see that you can still respect and admire them, just don’t allow anything to be pushed on you…you must be strong for yourself…don’t limit yourself and censor your genuine expression/response due to worrying overmuch about another…so what if you make a fool of yourself – you’re human…and maybe you’re doing that will help show others its ok and ideally leads to growth ;) me, I’m on here bcs I think it’s a great tool to “share” a bit of myself to my friends of all levels, and to take what they want to share…I also do not feel I should short myself on the possibility of being exposed to an amazing person – be it a group of people running a site, or representing the idea/vision of someone long gone…there is nothing wrong with wanting to be known by others…to share, to interact…or curious to know them. If anyone behaves “badly” to me – it is highly unlikely that I will lash out in kind…although I am human and believe me, once in a while my blood boils and if I wanted, I could “put you in your place” – but its a negative reaction…and i know myself…and I will do all I can internally that you/it do not affect me in a way I consider negative…I just work on letting it go. I went through this in my youth and know it leads nowhere – for me. I just want to thank my friends who are my champions, privately or publicly…I am the type to fade away rather that argue bcs I believe in discussions…kindness, tolerance, understanding, flexibility, agreeing to disagree and the like…freedom to let yourself and others shine. and if I cannot get that back from someone, I simply fade away bcs what is the point? I love the firecrackers bcs it’s a way for me to experience it, without taking it on ;) I just want to say, I appreciate you, in all of your unique freaking awesomeness. Thank you for helping me in my growth, joy, laughs, tears, struggles, badassedness (that is a word) and on and on! I actually DO think you are beautiful – even when my heart hurts...if I ever do or say anything off…please give me the benefit of the doubt knowing that was not my intention…talk to me…and I will talk to you…I hope we always leave the door open. el
