Everybody Take A Chill Pill!

  Awww I’m sorry to hear this. A blog is just a space to write whatever you fancy and i think the people who leave negative comments are the ones that have unresolved issues either with you or themselves that’s why they have to do it over the internet. I doubt anyone will have the courage to say whatever they wrote in real life.
  I think your thoughts are amazing and tend to lighten my mood after I read your post. Pretty please dont shut it down <3

  I hope you don’t stop blogging either! It’s a joy to pop along here to read your posts no matter what the topic is. It’s ridiculous people have times in their lives to do such silly things when they could be sorting themselves out instead. I believe blogging is like your own canvas and you should feel free to blog about anything you like

  @Wing, Thanks for such an encouraging comment Wing! I just don’t understand why people have to send me threats and hassle me. I don’t think people understand the time and effort and even money (because I bought my own domain name and hosting server) put into blogging. Anyway, thanks for your support

  Nooo don’t shut down your blog cheers so many of us up! there will always be people who have issues with you no matter what you do (or don’t do for that matter!) and the internet is a perfect place for those kinds of people because they can hide behind a monitor anonymously like cowards. Don’t let the silly haters get you down, they aren’t worth even thinking about. <333 got plenty of readers who love ya.
  Oh, and hello kitty loves you too

  @Elise, Elise, you are really sweet! I agree that some people hide behind the internet, but to threaten people and send them hate mail is taking it too far! It’s great to know that I have plenty of supportive and friendly readers like you! And hurray for Hello Kitty who always makes me smile

  @Ling Tung, You’re so right Ling, negative catty comments is one thing but threatening and hatemail is taking it too far! I’m a little sensitive sometimes and it’s easy to take nasty comments to heart and i’ve been a victim of cyber-bullies myself, but if you think about it it says more about them than you cause afterall you’ve done nothing wrong but be your lovely self i feel sorry for them if anything.
  Keep up the aweeesome blog and keep your chin up <3 you have tons of readers supporting you!

  @Elise, I’m sorry to hear that you had to go through cyber-bullying – it should not be tolerated. But I’m sure they’re all just cowards hiding behind their computers! Thanks Elise! You’re awesome!

  hello Ling!

  I have been a reader on and off for the past few months, we havent been able to catch up for a long time since u moved away *BOO* but I am really happy to know that you are having a good life down under. I am even more happy for you that you have found an avenue to develop and share your passion of writing.I feel your joy!

  Life is short, please don’t let what people say or think take away your dreams. As long as you continue to write responsibly, there’s nothing to stop you from feeling bad about this!

  I have thoroughly enjoyed reading your posts, so cheer up soon! :):)

  Love from shaunnie and I!

  @saraah, Hi lovelies, so good to hear from both of you! It is a shame that we are so far apart now, but it doesn’t stop me thinking about UK and friends over there like you guys. And yes, God has truly blessed me with a new life over here. You know the sad stuff I had to go through….

  Anyway, reading your encouraging comment has definitely cheered me up! Thank you!!!

  beetrice said,

  Hey Ling, I’ve been reading your entries since quite some time back – popped over from a “friend of a friend of a friend’s blog”… I reckon if you blog, comments of this sort inevitably come along with the territory – some people have a compulsion to foist their opinions on others.

  That said, if you’re happy with writing then I’d say just carry on doing what you’re doing – no point in letting others dictate your life right? (will continue reading though!)

  @beetrice, Hi Beetrice, I read your blogs too…and I found you through a friend’s blog…so we must have a mutual friend somewhere
  And yeah, unfortunately, blogging comes with hate mail territory – but when it comes with threats, it just breaks me down. Really need a thick skin for all this shizz!
  Anyway, thanks for reading and I will try not and let people dictate what I should blog and shouldn’t blog! They just can’t seem to understand the concept – Don’t like, don’t read!
  Many thanks!

  Threats even! That’s harsh. :/

  Good thing my blog is so boring nobody cares about reading it. That didn’t stop random spam-bots from spamming on it back when it was still on Windows Live Spaces though.

  I hope you don’t get too upset from hate mails.

  @Johan Ho, Hi Johan, yes I got threatened. I mean, I can handle hate mail but threats are too extreme!!
  Keep blogging because I read them. I think personal blogs are inspiring in their own ways.

  it takes courage to run a blog! definitely don’t shut it down! you’re never going to please everyone, but it doesn’t mean that you don’t write valuable stuff for the people that are ready to hear it.

  @rachel, Thanks Rachel, your support means a lot to me. I think some personal blogs are raw and show another side to a person and can provide insight into their lives. But then some people take things too seriously and can condemn you because of it. Ah well, I shall plough on and see how things go. I feel awful that I have to monitor comments on my blog now – just in case, someone else wants to threaten me again! Eeks.

  Dear Ling,

  You write so well and you’re so comical and funny. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this post. REALLy. don’t stop blogging. Are people that sick to send hate mails and threats??? That’s awful. Your blogging site belongs to you. If people don’t like what they read they should just stop reading all together rather than writing hate messages or giving threats. Such losers.

  Don’t stop writing please!

  Lindsay said,

  I completely agree with this post!
  There’s a line between constructive criticism and just being hateful. Sometimes people take there opinion way to far. That’s why I added a disclaimer to the top of my blog.

  If they don’t like what you have to say, no one is forcing them to read it. As long as you’re not soliciting readers to do anything illegal or immoral, or expressing serious hateful thoughts – I say go for it! There’s nothing wrong with writing down what amuses you =)

  @Lindsay, Thanks Lindsay! You’re a blogger too so you must know how it feels too right? It’s so draining to be criticised all the time…But I can’t let the haters win! Thanks for your supportive comment Feeling the love
