I love my blog. I love to write about things that make me happy. I love to write about my kids and my family. I love receiving comments. I love that I've built some major friendships here. I love that this is my personal space, my outlet.
I love reading other blogs, too. I love reading birth stories and seeing kid updates. I love to see your fun trips and amazing adventures. New homes, holiday traditions, fun toddler stories...I love it all!
What I don't love is when people have no sensitivity about what they blog and post things just to be hurtful. I don't like when people spread lies and I have to read about them on a blog instead having an adult conversation about issues in person. I don't like when people air dirty laundry (theirs or mine) instead of being mature and keeping some content to themselves. I don't like when people steal my blog name and pass it off as their own. And I really don't like when people take my loss, the loss of my son, and try to use it as a way to make themselves a victim in personal situations.
We've recently been involved in a lot of family drama (my husband's family) in which people have said some really terrible and hurtful things. Lies were told, feelings were hurt and we just can't be a part of it anymore. I want no part of the drama and I want them to have no part in our lives. We can't even give them a glimpse because just that will cause hateful words. I've honestly never seen people who call themselves family treat each other so badly. So much hate for someone who has done nothing but try to help. We obviously have a very different definition of the word family.
So, in an effort to create a drama free zone in our lives right now, I'm going private.
It's time to walk away from the conflict and focus on the things that make us happy and the people who want to be in our lives. We have a lot of things going on in our lives and we can't be concerned with the negativity. Private blog means I'll be able to share a bit more!

ReplyDeleteSorry your having to do this. Family stuff is hard when it's hurtful. Hang in there!
Aw, sweetie. I'm so sorry you're dealing with this! I had to cut off my daughter's extended family on her dad's side for similar issues. Best thing I could've done. They were using anything I said against me, and I didn't want those kind of people involved in mine and my daughter's life.
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm sorry Vanessa! That stinks. :-/
