CAN BLOGGING BE A DAMAGING PASTTIME?
Wednesday, November 18th, 2009I was recently at an amazing event where I witnessed hundreds of attendees (mostly women) with their thrilling breakthroughs . . .both in and out of the room.
Nevertheless, this event has been getting a TON of backlash for some very different personal reasons. Reasons I don’t think are fair to publicly declare with names. But that’s just ME.
Here’s what I think is cool and totally support . . .
1) Getting your own personal growth out of an experience and sharing it with others;
2) Being respectful of other people while speaking *your truth*;
3) Sharing perceived flaws about your experience and things you think should change . . .
My perception is we never really outgrow our childish ways but build our *adultness* on top of them. In other words, we tend to justify why we feel certain ways. Hey . . . it’s biology and survival . . . I get it . . . but when it’s unnecessarily hurtful to others I feel the need to respond.
Most of us aim to be more evolved yet we often get caught up in our emotional selves (me included, by the way). I see the immediacy of the Internet and blogs and tweeting to sometimes be detrimental. What do YOU think?
