DON'T EVER LET SOMEONE STEAL YOUR JOY OR YOUR HAPPINESS!!!

On Christmas day, I logged on to this blogger site. My plan was to write about how blessed we are and how we don't need extravagant gifts in order to have a wonderful Christmas holiday. When I logged on to my blogger profile, I noticed that I had a comment waiting for me to approve before publishing. Well, it wasn't a very nice comment, and whoever left the comment did so anonymously, so I have no idea who I offended with my last post. That nasty gram that I read nearly ruined a perfectly wonderful holiday. However, I could not allow this to happen. Why would I allow someone (who was cowardly and who couldn't even leave their real name) have so much power over me that I would allow it to ruin my holiday? 

Do you know what I did? I deleted the comment, and I even deleted the post that it was attached to. I guess some people don't like it when we are honest and we lay it all out there as to why my family has chosen to live our lives alone. Sometimes, it wasn't entirely our choice. Sometimes, we've been told to stay away from the extended family.

Well, enough about that. If the person who left me that comment on November 25 would like to discuss why my post offended them so greatly, I would enjoy sitting down with you and explaining my point of view. However, I will not allow someone whom I don't even know to ruin my happiness and joy!
