I don’t usually take the negative things people say to me to heart, but for some reason I can’t quite get this one out of my head. I sit there staring at my google docs, and even as I’m typing words I just keep hearing this comment in my mind over and over again and subsequently feel worse and worse about myself. I know my writing doesn’t look the same now as it did a year ago, or even six months ago, and I’m aware that there are a lot of very talented people on here whose intelligence, emotional depth, and writing ability are truly astounding, and far beyond my own. Isn’t it a wonderful thing, to be able to look around at this little corner of the internet and be blessed by such talented, amazing people who share their brilliance with us for so little in return? What I don’t understand is why instead of showering those people with positive comments and affirmations that are absolutely deserved, people instead choose to be so negative about things. Not just with this comment, but to so many other people on here. 

This is not that bad of a comment to receive in the grand scheme of things, but I suppose it’s hit a bit of a chord for me personally. I think I just need a minute to get over myself, and to get to the point where I can write without feeling poorly about whatever I end up coming up with. If you’re ever thinking of leaving mean comments on someone’s posts, please don’t. We are people too, and there is no need to do so when you can choose to block someone or walk away.
