Michelle's POZ Blog

I know a few of you are looking at the title to this entry and probably is scratching your head or maybe wondering wtf is that about? In my neck of the woods, it's a saying people use to say (people in my generation anyway), I guess it would be like saying "Guess who woke up on the wrong side of the bed".

Since my last entry, the comments--- the negative ones have really put me in a foul mood. I have been told to not let it get to me and usually I take criticism with a grain of salt. But I can't even call those negative comments, criticism. I feel like I have been judged and sentenced to be stoned. Crucified for putting my thoughts to words and sharing them. Basically, I feel like I have been shit on. I know some would probably think that I am being a bit dramatic but really I'm not. I'm not saying that I expect everyone to agree with me because I don't. I just feel like for those who didn't agree with me, you could've made your point a bit nicer. In other words, it's not what you say but how you say it.

I have to wonder if any of you(critics in the peanut gallery) even think about what you say when you respond to my blog? Because some of your comments come across as hostile or maybe because my blog seems to have a following, you are trying to one up me or get some type of response out of others. I say others because I normally do respond to all comments that are made. I guess you made your quota because my last entry has gotten 34 comments, the most of all the entries. I hope it made your day. But for me, it left a bitter taste in my mouth for the fact that my feelings were exploited and the comments made could've been compared to an episode of the Jerry Springer show.

I have been told that since it is my blog, I could simply delete the comments and solve the problem with that. I admit, I could but being that this is a blog, I feel that you critics have the right to voice your opinions and those should be seen too. Isn't that nice of me? But I am trying to show that not everyone agrees with me. It's not about having groupies, coddlers or enablers. My blog has and always will be about me, whether you like it or not, it is called "Michelle's Poz Blog". It's about me sharing my thoughts, feelings and opinions on things that affect MY life. Some of you need to understand that.
