In fact, I invite and encourage you to come onto my journals and share your point of view. I won't delete your comments just because you disagree with me. I have the courage, and the respect for other people, to proudly display the words of people who have read what I've written. I also won't block you for having a different opinion than I do. It takes all kinds of views to make the world go 'round. It makes me feel sad that there are so many people out there who write something and then set about deleting anything that could possibly be construed as disagreement. If you don't want anyone elses input, then set it up "For Friends Only."
Rant over.

That's how I feel too, MotherofIreland. You didn't miss much, I was looking at a journal I wouldn't have ordinarily read anyway.
Woah, my journal is #73 most popular. I have never seen that high of a number in the popular list before.
I appreciate that you welcome opinions from everyone. I try to do that unless it's just outright nasty. I'm really trying hard to stay on the positive side of things regardless if I agree with people or not. ;-}
MemawBrie, we have all noticed your effort and have been really happy. It's a great thing to eagerly read your orange font instead of cringing when we see it. ;)
LOL Joye, that just made my day! Thank you ;-} I think a lot of people have been annoyed by my orange font. I really like orange, and with my bad eyesight, it's easier for me to read, especially when I bold it, or can make it larger. I just want to say, keep me accountable girls. I may have differing views, and am set in my ways, however, I'm open to constructive criticism when it's warranted. Hope y'all have a really wonderful day!
And this is why I respect and contemplate everything you have to say, toddlerbrain. Tsk, tsk to those that need to censor others so that there opinion is the only one heard.
I don't delete comments off my journals, either. I figure what better way to show others what a fool someone is at any given moment, but to leave their comment up. Also it's makes for constructive discussion if the opposing view is left. If presented correctly, the comment can offer a viewpoint that may not have been considered previously.

What did I miss?? I am also one that won't delete comments. I figure if the comment is vile enough you should leave it up so people know what an idiot that person is.
