One of the best lessons in life, that I have learned, is how to "let things go". There is no sense in me holding on to anger and hatred for something that was said or done to me. It doesn't give "pay back" to the person who wronged me or hurt my feelings. It only hurts *me* to hang on to those negative feelings. Sometimes that is not so easy. And sometimes those hurt, angry, hateful feelings can come back when someone else doesn't feel like I do... and continues on.
This doesn't mean that I am a baby and afraid of standing up. I'm all for standing up for myself, my feelings, my words and my actions. But once "it" is done. "It" is done. There is no sense in carrying "it" forward.
I wish everyone in this world felt the same way. It would be so much easier for everyone to just get along. Kum-bah-ya Lord, Kum-bah-ya. :)
And once "it" is over, be civil. You don't have to like the person. You don't have to like or agree with their beliefs, thoughts, opinions, actions, etc... but you can be civil. They are their own person, just like you are your own. They have every right to be themself just as you do. Let them go on with being themself. :)
Stand up when it is important, and sit down to enjoy life for the rest of the time. :)
Oh Lord.... Kum-bah-ya. =D

Cathy,
Yes I was a real bitch on ff, but the only posts(3 or 4) that I made were from my account, dreamaaa.
I am not anyone one else but dreamaaa. Im not responsible for what anyone else says on here.
I was also kidding about a shout out to you on ff. I said so in the topic.
I have been hurt too. What do most of us do when we get hurt? We hurt right back. But like you, I am done with this, because even though it doesnt seem like it, there is someone sitting on the other side of the screen that is real.

Oh, the only reason why I am targeting you right now is because, you are the only level headed woman around here.
Also, the person that was posting all that stuff is doing so because she knows that I have been wronged in many many ways. There are a lot of people to blame and a lot of people at fault, including myself. But as of today I had left it all on ff. I am done. Drama went too far.
Lil Bucky/Dreamaaa, I appreciate your comments and honesty.
You are right about when we get hurt, our defenses go up and instinct says to give right back. It's hard to fight that. And most times, we all end up giving in to the urge to retaliate, don't we? *shakes head in shame*
I didn't realize that your shout out on FF was a joke and I apologize for the misunderstanding.
I also hope that this all dies down. Targeting one seems to end up going too far.
It's all fun and games while we all get "digged at", if you know what I mean. But when one gets pounced on unfairly, that isn't good - and things get out of hand - quickly. Just as what happened with you.
Cathy, it's all fun until someone gets hurt . . . and sometimes we end up hurting ourselves in the process. I learned that this week.
Got a couple of questions I want to ask you but don't want to post it here . . . . if I give you my e-mail, will you contact me?
freaks, you are welcome to email me at: cathy_allshouse@yahoo.com.
