It's a shame when people can't let sleeping dogs lie...
It's a shame when people continue to beat a dead horse...
It’s a shame when people keep a chip in their shoulder…
It’s a shame when people keep burning bridges…
It’s a shame when people can’t let bygones be bygones…
It’s a shame when people keep rubbing salt in old wounds…
It’s just a shame.
There are a gazillion more “idioms” in use, but each of these has special meaning with regards to numerous situations here in blogland.
Yeah, well, since everyone is blogging about blogs & opinions & such, I have a couple of things on my mind that I thought I would attempt to share.
I agree with the ones who say if you don't like the content, subject, or whatever of a blog...move on...don't read it. Over the time that I have been reading the blogs, I've learned to identify certain people's blogs that I skip right over. There's no need in even opening them up. Granted, I may be missing some good "stuff" but such is life & it will just be my loss.
I may skip those blogs because I don't care for the subject matter the writer generally covers or perhaps I just don't care for the person's writing style. It's all about CHOICE! It's their choice to write what they write about & it's my choice to read it or not read it. Seems pretty darn simple to me.
Oh yeah...someone earlier blogged on RESPECT....& I must say, I couldn't agree more! zippy said:
Those who post blogs of a questionable nature will attract people who are likewise, If you want people to be sincere and take you seriously, post accordingly. If you like the attention and the comments of questionable nature - post the questionable blogs!
And further to that… don’t bitch because that is the type of attention you get! Oh yeah…& don’t complain because others don’t see eye to eye with your subject…remember, it’s alllllll about CHOICE!
Then there are the people who think everything is about THEM. They have to jump on every blog & make defensive comments. What's with THAT? Get a LIFE...get OVER it.....YOU are NOT the CENTER of everyone's universe. And even if it IS about you...most likely you are perpetuating the TRUTH by the manner in which you respond. LOL
ANYWAYS...so much for me & my rambling. Thanks for reading, if you made it this far...and thanks for your comments, too. Just so you know, comments on my blogs are set for my approval, so if you choose not to comment for that reason, it is your prerogative. I have never censored ANYTHING that anyone has ever commented on my blogs (few that I have written) & it is not my intention to ever do so. I just appreciate the built in safety factor that is allowed me by making the choice to approve or deny.
