Hello!
OK. So I made a post a about a week or so ago that I was changing my URL. "Hm, I wonder why", you may be thinking. Well, I'll tell you why.
A couple of weeks ago someone found my blog online and read it. "Found it" as in stumbled across it? No. "Found it" as in must have seen me typing in it and then went online and did a search for it. Yes.
And guess who this person is? My sister. So later on in the day she starts talking to me while I'm on my computer and mentions that she found--that's an action verb-- my blog, and she read it (hmmm, nosy??), and didn't appreciate what I said about her in some of my posts. For instance, she didn't like that I said in my post about my first day that I hadn't really wanted her doing my hair. She took great offense, saying that if I didn't want her to do my hair I should have just said that, and not to (paraphrasing) "pity" her (???).
OK, this has truth in that it's good to say what you really want, but in all truth, with the way she was behaving and behaves in general---she would have been offended. In fact she was offended that morning when she offered to blow out the perimeters of my hair and I objected because I don't like using heat on my hair. She said I didn't know how to "listen to advice" and I was "stubborn". OK so because I don't want a piece of help you offered (more like tried to impose) I'm stubborn? OK. To the whole doing my hair deal, I'm sure she would have said I was ungrateful for not accepting her help if I'd expressed myself then, and blahzay. So, lose lose.
She was also upset about this post about where I said I felt my family (including her) was condescending towards me, and also (in the second paragraph) how didn't like her choice of music, and planned to buy headphones so I didn't have to hear it.
She came to me and stood there and told me that maybe it would be easier to treat me how I want to be treated if I behaved such and such way, and did a, b, and c. I'm sorry, but I don't think a life-time of undervaluing someone and condescending them has too much to do with how they behave, but more so what's working inside of you to make you react, respond, and behave towards someone in such a demeanor. She was basically trying to justify it.
Secondly, when she referred to the part about her music, she said I was "judging" her, and she "didn't appreciate" me talking about her like she was "the worst heathen" (once again, ??). I'm sorry, what did I say about her taste of music?? Read it, 4th line from the end. Yeah, I don't sense any condemnation there. Just saying. And if I needed to judge her, I'd do it in righteousness (the godly way; in love and truth and sincerity) as the Bible allows me to (II Timothy 3:16) , but I didn't even do that. Yet I digressed.
She then exclaims that "God forbid there be people reading it that know us" ...um, I'm sure no one on here knows my sister and me, why? Because I've seen pics of all my followers and I know all of 2 of you personally---who only know me, (I also know of 2 non-following readers) and moreso, I don't market my blog to people I know, and even if someone that happened to know me and her truly stumbled across it, I don't think they'd see "O.F.C.J.", and my profile pic and be like "OOH, I think I know that girl, and her sister too!!". LoL Yeah. I'm anonymous and deeply under guise, and unless you're a stalker and you watch my situations happen through the window before I type them...I highly doubt you can figure it out. I'm just saying.
But, she then goes on to tell me, after all this, and how she doesn't appreciate it, not to write anything like that on here again.
UM, EXCUSE ME???!! Ooh. You all, being a Christian is already not easy. But please don't make me lose my Jesus in here. Lol. Are you kidding me? YOU are going to tell me, after snooping around via being nosing on my computer screen, and then being nosy on your computer and a search engine and finding something you don't like, what not to write about in my blog? Um, I thinketh not ya'll. I thinketh not.
First of all, I said nothing rude, outrageous, or condemning in any of my posts that referred to her, only truths about my inner thoughs and sentiments. SECOND of all, darling, this is MY blog, and if YOU don't like what's on it, then please, please, don't read it! I think I'm free to say that, right? Anywho, to all of this, I responded in silence. Instead I went on my blog and changed the URL to keep her out of my beeswax (it's changed back now), even though she claims she deleted it from her internet because it "broke [her] heart to read"---UMm<>
So, that's why I'm changing my URL, because I don't really want her on here, and I don't really want to deal with her in my face again trying to chastise me about what I'm writing and then tell me what not to write--which also happens to be none of her business. Goodness, good thing I'm a somewhat prude-ish yet interesting (I think :P) writer and don't put all my life out on here.
I will probably end up later on making my blog invite-only instead so I can keep my current URL, but I'll have to know which of you want to be invited if I do that so I don't leave anyone out :).
OK, *deep breath!*.
Ta ta!!
O.F.C.J. ;)
Wow. This is your blog, and like you said, you have every right to write anything that you want as long as it's not infringing on anyone's rights. My mom reads my blog, but I won't censor myself as it's a means of candid expression. Just do what you feel is best;)
ReplyDeleteThanks. I do do my best to keep it clean and honest. I'm glad that episode ( the confrontation) is over :)
