Unless I ask for permission, I keep them out of it. Ditto hubby as far as specifics. Sometimes there are no virtual boundaries, and there should be. I also don't blog about my job, for my own privacy. My personal life is my own and NOT my employers :) And I try to keep it positive.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00576053785355324560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504547252988171727.post-63212025836423565602012-10-14T18:22:51.979-07:002012-10-14T18:22:51.979-07:00"I think there is room for all of us and each..."I think there is room for all of us and each one of us has to determine our own rules for OUR blogs."

I hate it when that happens - it's nobody's business how each person wants his/her blog to be. We do it for ourselves, and if that someone thinks it's too happy, then they don't have to visit there! Maybe the author wants to have happy thoughts either for herself OR for all those folks out there that maybe just need a lift. To each his (or her) own. A blog is personal and voluntary - nobody needs to criticize! There's my two cents - just had to spout off.Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07741431727993692456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504547252988171727.post-51117600546070889162012-10-13T13:30:31.263-07:002012-10-13T13:30:31.263-07:00Preach it, sister!

There's enough of the "ugly" as you said. And I couldn't agree more about TV...very ugly. <br /><br />I have thought about showing what my living room can look like on any typical day with my 4 year playing there.....I would like for folks to see we're real people with real lives and that's sometimes messy. :) I think being real also makes people feel more comfortable. <br /><br />But I don't ever want to be negative.

There are so many unwritten rules about how one should blog, how one should facebook ... My thought is this: On my blog, I will blog exactly how I want to blog. If it's not someone's cup of tea, well, then they should just move on to the next one instead of trying to force me to change just to suit them. That's a bit selfish & juvenile.Angela ~ Call Her Blessedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11593300932492062467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504547252988171727.post-16491824032133954232012-10-13T07:20:04.544-07:002012-10-13T07:20:04.544-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Angela ~ Call Her Blessedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11593300932492062467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504547252988171727.post-49983995318304120052012-10-13T06:29:12.617-07:002012-10-13T06:29:12.617-07:00Well said Elaine!

What is wrong with expressing that happiness on one's blog? This is just a bit of a puzzle to me, although I know there are those who are critical of just about anything, no matter what it is like.

People get a rude comment and it upsets them, and rightly so. I happen to feel that the best response is no response. People like that love to be ackowledged. I hit delete and move on and remind myself that my blog is my own little world to shape any way I want. Haters need not comment...or visit for that matter. If it ain't your cup of tea, move along.
