Today I learned a valuable lesson. Never blog angry. NEVER. There is no winner.
My time in the blogosphere has been short. While I have been here I have met some absolutely wonderful people. I may not have met anyone in person, but I feel I have a good ‘sense’ of how you may be in person. My blogosphere is saturated with good-hearted genuinely nice individuals from many walks of life.
I have been blessed with some of the most friendly, self-less, and overly positive bloggers and web 2.0 connoisseurs.
I guess it was only a matter of time to have a negative experience.
I won’t give any details, just that I had a negative experience as a blogger, and I was upset, angry, speechless, pissed, etc. ![]()
I admit it. I wanted to respond with an overly loud, bitter, FLAME of a blog post. I know it would have felt good. I wanted to bark my side of the story dammit!
But thanks to a very good blogger-friend who disguises herself as wise sage and my beautiful wife
I have seen the error in my poor judgment.
The funny thing is, this is what I blog about. Most visitors and readers who stop by my blog see my pseudonym and of course my avatar and automatically assume I’m all about physical strength. But the reality is I blog and pursue overall mind/body/spirit wellness and health. To be strong MENTALLY as well as physically.
Well, today I was tested.
And, I think I would have failed had they not come to my rescue.
I guess life is just one hard pill to swallow sometimes. ![]()
I guess that’s what it’s all about. Learning as we go along.
What does not kill us will make us stronger. Heh heh ![]()
Thanks for listening (uh… reading)
Carpe Diem

Always good to have a wife and a friend like that.
Thank god for EDIT, LOL! Glad she was there for you
@ Emily Why yes it is!
@ NurseExec Me too! Thanks.
Those people will drive you to absolute insanity if you allow them.the opportunity. I know because I’ve wanted to rip my hair out (and a certain commenter’s throat from their neck.)
Don’t give them the chance. It sounds like you have a very wise wife. I’m glad you’re listening to her.
@ Epijunky Thanks for your words, and yes I am quite the luck one!
Enough patients lash out at me in my day to day life without putting up with it on the net when I get home.
Point me in their direction and I’ll go show them the meaning of the Glesga Kiss!
@ wardbunny Aww shucks. Thanks. You’re the second person who has offered that service. We all get it enough at work. Your comment/suggestion is greatly appreciated!
