My friend's sage advice to me after I posted a question on Facebook

I dunno about joy and happiness, do ridiculous cat pictures count?

Absolutely!

It just took me FAR too long to realize that one of those cats wasn't real!

I do all those things even better in my size 4 jeans and healthy 136 pound body.  This just sounds like an excuse for staying fat and lazy.

Wow, from the some of the responses to this posting I would say some of you are too judgmental to really get the wisdom from it.  What a shame.  I've noticed some nasty comments on other threads too.  I thought this was supposed to be a supportive, safe community for sharing insights.  Perhaps not? 

Decrying others as judgmental while simultaneously wagging your own finger? 

I call them as I see them. 

I think people are trying to help you in your posting style.  You're relatively new to online forums, it would seem.  

Run on paragraphs are difficult to read.  Most people skip over them entirely.

Don't mistake constructive criticism for being "too judgmental."  I see no nasty comments on this thread at all.

We  see things differently.  I copied and pasted from Facebook to here without editing her post.   I tend not to stay too long in online forums because of the negativity and *****iness that always ends up being posted by people.  Someone inferred my friend was fat and lazy because she sees the sunny side of life.  Those are nasty comments in my opinion. 

No judgement here! Your friend's comments were a bit too saccharine and Pollyanna for my personal taste but they work well for some - so posting is absolutely fine and may help some people. 

I hink people do tend to respond negatively to threads presented like this though. You have done this previously as well - written as one long paragraph; it doesn't work.  It may be you are copying from a tablet. When I cut and paste using my iPad, it loses all formatting and it may be that is happening with you. But it really only takes a minute to edit it to put in paragraphs.
