We all have that gift in knowing how to do things we all have a variety of different personalities. Now and then we all have things that we do and then we reflect on it. I have always thought of the betterment within all and do enjoy writing.
I have deleted off some of the notes of before and a question I do pose is that it's rather hard to keep up with everyone. Some have there own networks and some just write.
Now and then you will get that flair up that you really don't with to have. And seemingly everyone is tied in some fashion. I love writing and I don't wish to delete people from my blog - one has to take account for their own actions and then come to some realization of what to do. Perhaps I am quick to be sensitive with some of the things that I read but at the same time...hmm there is much to be thought of as I guess I could take off some of the blocks that I have or all of them for that matter.
If you were me and it was your blog what would you do? I really do mean that. As to forgive is a great commodity.
Forgiveness is important. i think sometimes we put stuff down on screen that sounds good in our head but the rest of the world might not understand. Ya gotta be careful and stuff.
ReplyDeleteYet there is that ideal of freedom of speech you know?
ReplyDeleteThe point for me Jack is that one has to know for himself the intention of the heart ... and when the intention of the heart is not to cause pain or suffering, or to incite, then that is what it is... no matter how another person might take it. No matter what is said, especially in a social network, there will always be the possibility for there to be someone that takes offense or gets upset or simply doesn't like what is being said. If we withhold what we put on our own pages, out of fear of the possibilities of those things happening, then we might as well not write at all. LOL Just know the intention of your own heart... and write from there.. and no matter what anyone else thinks of what you write or what you've shared... you will know the intention! Also remember that it is usually not the intention of anyone else to case harm or hurt someone else... so even though often that might happen... it is usually not their intention either! :)
ReplyDeletemy blog is there if someone wants to read...people have been obnoxious and I blocked them for that reason...they will stay block ..others have tack and say the same thing but will never get blocked...I like tact.
ReplyDeleteI am in no way or even consider myself a writer, but, we all do write things on here sometimes without knowing how another person feels about what we wrote. Feelings get hurt, mine don't very often,( I keep my last feeling in my pocket). When we realize that we have offended or hurt someone, we should at least try to makes amends, if the offended party will allow it. I am a small town country guy that tries to tell it like I see things. In doing so, in ignorance, I have offended people before. Had to apologize more than once, and will probably have to again.
ReplyDeleteIf we know what we are writing is going to offend someone or some group of people, I usually fix my post to where they are unable to read it. But that is me.
Very good post.
I am reading and looking at everything I think your correct but I don't chat all I do is write...Scott thanks.
ReplyDeleteSo true Denise...I am really being sincere here.. and I never mean to cause anyone any harm.
ReplyDeleteIt miffs me sometimes to be honest...but there as I do enjoy the variety of writes as well as writing.
ReplyDeleteThinking on this and well I guess in some ways it is what it is...
just saw your invite...thanks , hope I don't let you down
ReplyDeleteYou most welcome...
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you be honest here..forgiveness is something show our mature as an adult. Nobody perfect and give a second chance is a great thinking. Wish that friendship last forever, Jack..even only in Multiply :)
ReplyDeleteWas just outside for a moment thinking an all of this and it's something that we all write and we there is tact on a computer and yet forgiveness you get so large but then at the same time you look for authenticity and no the fury that comes with in. So I would think there is a combination of tact as well as forgiveness.
ReplyDeleteYeah...it's been something I have always abide by.
Honesty is always the best policy. We all say things that come out differently than we meant them to sound. Forgiveness is important, and getting to know our friends here helps.
ReplyDeleteYeah I know Terri...
ReplyDeleteLife's too short to worry about what people I will never meet think about anything. I only block those that don't write for months on end. I have had some point out the error in my logic but never in a mean way and sometimes we have to just "agree to disagree". I did block one fellow who was constantly preaching and not showing any pictures or sharing about his cultural life, or any interest in real people and their needs or desires.
ReplyDeleteI thankfully have never had to block. However, I'm pretty selective on invites that I accept in the first place. Wishing you the very best.
ReplyDeleteYes, forgiveness is very important, it frees you from what could be eating on the inside. It helps put an end to the cycle of revenge.
ReplyDeleteThis medium is limited and words can be treacherous so I think it is important to let each one have their say. What are our ideas, our beliefs based on? Can we pretend to know all of truth? Each one speaks from where he/she is/has been.
I blocked someone who put a spam (commercial link) in the comments of an older entry. Otherwise, I have not had trouble with this. Those who never post don't bother me, they just fall to the end of the inbox and I don't see them.
I do prefer a blog where the person writes their own material.
If a person requests to be a friend, I usually go to their blog, and read what they have previously written. There are certain things that are triggers to me. Then if I accept someone, and they dont blog on a fairly regular basis, I either just let them sit there or I may send a message and remove them from my list. I blog what I think, what I feel and try my best not to offend anyone, but if I do, so be it. Everyone is different, thinks differently, sees things sometimes in opposite ways, and that is great. My Mother told me one time that if everyone was exactly the same, what a boring world it would be. So blog on my friend, and I will do the same! Have a lovely Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteI think we can answere civily to most blogs
ReplyDeletewe must or should all remember we have different ideas backgrounds life styles so if we respect that basic premise it usually works out
I to try not to block but once in a while it is a must so do it
I love all the diversity out there and so it is interesting to find out how we all live think spend our time from a purley anthropological point of view it is facinating
Linda has already written "my" anwer. So I line up!
ReplyDeleteI think it's always wise to give the benefit of doubt to people. Others might misunderstand what one writes, or one might misunderstand others. I believe it is wise to be slow to act.
