The internet world
So I have had this on my mind lately, I don't know why, but I can't get it off my mind. So, we live in a blessed day where we have a way to stay in contact with all those who have been a part of our life. We have blogs, we have e-mail, we have facebook, twitter, instant messaging and so on. But sometimes these things can be a bad thing. If you are talking to someone in person things come out differently than when you are trying to communicate it over the computer. A lot of times when you say things over the computer they could be taken out of context or not taken the way it was meant to be taken. A while back, I commented on someones blog, and after I read that comment, I realized it sounded terrible, so I posted another comment explaining my other comment and it sounded even worse. At that point I didn't know how to fix it. My intentions have never been to offend anybody or say anything rude to anybody, but it did happen, I think. I never talked to this person to explain because I was ashamed. I was thinking one thing and typing something completely different. (By the way Sher, it wasn't on your blog, just to clarify, but I think that was pretty awful). Anyway, I just wanted to post this because even though it was quite sometime ago, I can't get it off my mind. Maybe that person will look at my blog and understand, or this person may not have been offended at all. I don't know. I just felt very strongly that I should write this post. So if I ever offended anyone I apologize. I would never want to hurt or offend anyone because everyones life is hard enough and there is no need to hurt, offend, or put down anyone else. Even if it is unintentional, it has made me consciously think about things before I say or do them. Anyway, like I said, I felt strongly that I should write this. I hope you all have a good day.
