Of recent there are several friends that seemingly are having troubles with others within this blogosphere. Seemingly there are those that will congregate with a good mission – good will without any divide and discourse.
The purpose of why we all partake in this is for our own concerns. Combined with many areas that bring about an array of interests. We all are from an array of places, as well as areas that we wish to write upon and those which choose to utilize this with a mean of ill will. I just don’t buy it. I believe that we all have differences – which do make up what and whom we are. We all come from all areas. I think that is a plus rather than a minus. I thought that I would post this before it goes any further as my hopes on this blog are that people do get along. Not just myself but with those that seemingly have had a negative experience of recent. Seemingly this goes that way and different periods of time. Everyone enjoys this – I know I do with a respect but I do hope there is a balance where people can get along without the need to play games. We all have our own thoughts and our own areas that we write in. And it really comes down to people getting along with people. There is no one better than another yet we do have our own favorites, as they are friends. This is not a chat room, and for the ones that wish to have that methodology of, "It's my way or no way". Well, I think we are missing out on what this is all about. As it's a multiply of many, which tends to lead to honor and respect as well having a little fun now and then. Freedom of speech is a two way street. But I do certainly applaud those that keep this within a mature manner rather than otherwise. As there is more good till there are some than waiver and decide what their objective is. Some gossip, some play it and then there are those that are too busy to play silly games as such.
The very balance of all of this from what I believe is to come to an understanding that there is a tremendous array of people regardless of where they come from and if I am wrong – it’s much like people passing notes to one another. We need not act within this manner. We enjoy the areas that we write and read. The contributions go both ways in the manner that I see it. As this is an area of enjoyment, not for one to be on guard with every remark that they make. Superficial is as grand to those that need to perpetuate there lives and impose negativity to another. Yet the consideration of people getting along with other people and not making judgments are really what I see this as being. There is that term in which we call the power of association. I could stand to be corrected but I think that the association amongst each and everyone of us is within a positive mode. If not there really must be something wrong as then this blog is being used as an outlet of otherwise.
What have I learned? That life is too short and there are two directions with any given matter that on takes on. They can utilize it as a good tool or they can utilize it otherwise. I would make this mention, as there are tremendous friendships worthy of having as friend. I can’t nor wish to control anyone else. But the key ingredient is within the respect within the shares. I think that really basically what is rather than what is not.
Let the negatives be gone. Allow the opportunity of others, don’t judge so fast and if you have to be the need to be catty well I think that many are on here for a pleasant time. Thus it is as it is. This is a place where there are the shares that we desire. It’s not for notes to be passed to and fro with malice. And for the ones that gain a satisfaction on focusing on others. There is definitely something wrong with “the picture”. I am not trying to stir up anything. I just have seen some things of recent that baffle me. But I would rather utilize this as a means and way. Rather than otherwise. As I am sure that several feel the same way of recent. I was going to write this last night but thought that I would leave it. There are names I could place and the array of what they share is very interesting and enjoyable. As I think this is what it is about. Character defines a person and the array are most enjoyable to say the least.
I think that still stands.
~Aside of the above this was a decent day, mind you the weather tonight calls for the "S" word. ~
I say they should forgive...forget and move on.... Life is way to short
ReplyDeleteDitto here...Julie.
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness youre still getting the S word???.......its heating up fast in Phoenix,were already in the low 90's Of course I do not have a clue who or what circumstance you are talking about here, I have a rule of thumb for my blog though, I know we are all different , have different ways of life, I dig that. I will get to know someone through their blogs and emails or chats, some I really enjoy, some turn out to be not my kind of people, I just move on when I find a blogger offensive or too rude to be a friend of mine, birds of a feather flock together as they say, Here is a piece of info I am going to share with you Jack, I met someone on here , she reminded me so much of my husband Pauls difficult personality, that I no longer read her blogs. lmao I have to respect my husbands personality and try to understand him clearly......but not in my blog life I dont...lol Every statement said does not have to be a debate. well unless your asking for a debate on a subject I mean.....lol anywho, once again Ive talked to much......
ReplyDeleteThe forecast it for this eve Pamela. So hopefully it won't happen. Hey you are whom you are and the clarity all comes out within the words. Everyone has that area of to each their own and the differences are good. You are within our own area and doing your best there is no doubts on that and it's all good as you are you Pamela and everyone has a different personality. For myself, I have had several that have deleted me and then re added me but this is all within fun and with our own manner of expression as I see it. But weather wise we may get it that "s" word but hopefully not. Never do you talk too much. It's your very own right Pam.
ReplyDeletesocial networks are no different than city streets amigo-----sometimes we sit at the bus stop just to converse and sometimes we keep on walking-----we smile at strangers because we do and there are times when that smile is comforting but there are times when that smile is confronting----or that is how a simple smile to a stranger can be perceived----and just as "old friends" lie over lunch about everything so to are lies told on social networks----i prefer the city streets for at least there are sights and sounds and smells and real hugs ---
ReplyDeleteFor me I am content, but upon the last two days I did see some friends that were going through what I had before.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's all good I was going to write this last night but it was much too late. There have been some old friends on this
social network whom have returned and this is good. While for some reason I have been banned by some and when I
read other friends with there desire to set the record straight I thought when I read this quote in my notes yesterday
I thought I would make the mention as I think we all have been there - yet one is themselves and what I have learned
is you cant write for everyone but you can partake and reach out and literally touch someone and then some - si !
So this was a small interlude if you will and there are real people on here. All that is with a respect and a reciprocating
meaning for me. As I do love the outdoors and all but for me as well this is my evening excursion - sorta and kinda.
Well much so - me thinks :)
That's exactlly what everyone on the blog sites/social networks need to keep in mind - you can't write for everyone. And I have always said, "Everyone can write what they want, everyone else has the choice to read it or not."
ReplyDeleteBut there are those that look for drama or make it where ever they can. I'm with you, I try to stay out of that stuff.
I enjoy your writings. For whatever that's worth.
Susan I literally enjoy the variety of reads and writes, there is a friendship and there is a gain within it all.
ReplyDeleteWe all in a way share the stairs in which we walk.
I don't remember 'seeing' you before, but I find your answer refreshing, and appealing. I think there's a lot more to be said about reality than websites, though; misinterpretations can be made but not as easily? Aye?
ReplyDeleteJack, I believe in respect and mutuality in every kind of forum.
ReplyDelete"Intelligent debate" is the only kind that there is, and debate is good, and civil.
I haven't had, to any extent, the experiences you've spoken of.
I've blocked a few persons in my time, only for extremely vulgar language.
A couple of contacts have disconnected from me with no clearly expressed reason, but I don't mind. I'm not thin skinned.
I'm candid, honest, true to who I am all the time~~and that's the gist of me.
Perhaps some just need to relax a bit more, not jump to conclusions, not take everything personally? I certainly don't have all the answers. But I'd sure say that my online friends are 99.999% true, and some I've known for as long as seven + years.
I have nothing to worry about. Life is full of surprises and that what makes it more lovely and worthy. Real friends I treasure, aquaintances worthy to remembered. tight hugs Jack.
ReplyDeleteAs well here, respect combined with the rest are what gives way to clarity. Even you and I
ReplyDeletehave had differences. This here really is not negative Sig as I don't miss too much and when
you can see this passive aggressive thing happening or some that you regard as tremendously
well composed people write up something on problematic situations - I myself thought I would
place it on. As before it starts going Sig I would rather place something on that creates and
understanding. I read 5 posts which where really addressing something and I do think it opens
the door to those that close doors as for those that think they are above the rest, or need to
contest, or have that passive aggressive twist - it's not something to my desire. I much rather
have the friends, encounters and dialogue within a mature manner not one that is within
whispers and catty acts as we all have been there. I don't mind how this all is going Sig. I find
it a pleasure. Yet there are some that will make that assumption on someone based on where they
are from. Or within there writes but for me with the exception of a few banning me for reasons
I don't know. I write for myself and I enjoy the reads of others. Mind you after this surgery takes place
I don't think I am going to be on as much.
Sig you are a good friend and you know I have a few blocked but it need not be spoken. But what is
of importance if I may.................................................................
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU SIG. I hope you have a great one as we are much alike yet different.
Ironically somone thought I had two blogs and I was you. But it's not the case and may you have
a very decent day on this date of your birth.
Thank you for defining yourself...
ReplyDeleteI hope I am not one of those who people see as catty. Sometimes what I comment might seem sarcastic to some but it is meant to be taken lightly, almost as a joke, though I am serious and my typed words can be understood as they are written. My friends at home understand me. I think it's hard to communicate without talking face to face, seeing the others body language, hear the tone of their voice, etc.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you didn't actually say the "s" word.
That life is too short and there are two directions with any given matter that on takes on
ReplyDeleteThere are times when I'm not quite sure that I understand a comment~the same as can happen in 'real' life~and as in real life, that's what I say, "I'm not sure I understand what you're saying." This gives the other the opportunity to clarify before there are misunderstandings.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure what you mean by this, perhaps because I haven't encountered anyone like this:
"I read 5 posts which where really addressing something and I do think it opens
the door to those that close doors as for those that think they are above the rest, or need to
contest, or have that passive aggressive twist -"
In any case, I hope everyone enjoys the weekend, and thank you, Jack, for the birthday wishes.
Not at all Nancy I nor do I pay that much attention any more to it all yet there were others whom I could see within their own writes this week
ReplyDeletea disarray and I thought I would just take the time to make the mention Nancy. And yes this morning we had a brief amount of the "s" but as
soon as it was 8am most all of it was gone. No moe s___w. :)
So true Tori...
ReplyDeleteCertainly so Sig and your most welcome with regards to you Birthday. A new day and a new age.
ReplyDeleteIt's all passe as I thought I would address it. I don't have any worries on a social network.
Again a good day to you Sig as it's one new day within many of your life.
