I have received several lovely PMs telling me that the subject of my last thread is just not worth it.

Ladies, you are right! I am taking your advice.

However, I am not a coward and I do not give in to bullies (although I have to say they do get me extremely upset) and so I have not deleted my last thread - I don't regularly log in to see what those who have blocked me or whom I have blocked have to say (in fact I have only ever done it once) and so I don't know if they came in on my thread! If they did, that's good - they have every right to put their point of view.

I have just added the following to that thread

This thread is here and deleting my post would make the whole thing ridiculous. But i deeply regret posting it and ask you to forgive me. My intentions were good and arose out of a desire to restore sanity to this board. This thread has the opposite effect and i am truly sorrry for that

I may take a couple of days "off" - one of the joys of a message board is that things pass! I should not have lowered myself to the level of the people I criticised. I am ashamed that I did so
and I will not do so again.

I love your Pollyanna threads. Don't quit because of some people, you are a great sucess and are needed here. I just laugh off the NN's. I don't care what is said, I just wish they would stop saying it over & over again. I've read it so many times that I skip them now.

Pollyannaism is thinking means dealing with a negative event, allowing the appropriate amount of time for negative emotions to surface, and then moving on from the negativity by focusing on the positive.
