What a horrible thing to say

Yes, I know when you share your life on a venue such as this you open yourself up to negative comments. But it might be a good idea for someone to be aware of every conversation relative to the one they are responding too. And since some people only reply to reply and earn a penny, they might not respond to something intense. Yes, there are other ways in which to release emotions. One could simply type something up and burn it. But by doing so they don't open themselves to ideas that may help them better learn and overcome. I've been trying to sort out my thoughts and feelings concerning the death of a family member. I've shared the traumas of life in order to reach out so that others can see they can learn from them. One can let the past control them, or they can learn from it and become a better person. Some of the friends I've made here have become actual friends. I'm not one to just post to make a few pennies. I'm not against that though. It's a positive way to help make ends meet for some. For others it's some cash they may use for enjoyment, the little extras in life. That's great. The thing is, people don't have to be ugly. If it's a genuine concern or question one could find a polite way in which to phrase it. Stating it as an assumption, well, it stinks. There is an old saying. If you can't say something nice, don't say it. Well, if you can't be supportive, perhaps you should leave it well enough alone. To clear things up. I loved and cared about my father in law. I love and care about my mother. I can't say that about my adoptive parents. I didn't like or trust them from the moment I met them and I was right. I didn't like many of the things, okay, most of the things they did. But all of them have done some good things. My only wish is that they could have known that the world wasn't out to get them. That they could have relaxed and enjoyed life. That they could have experienced love, not for what they did to impress others, but for being good at heart. So, please don't be so rude as to suggest I'm happy that anyone has died. What a horrible thing to say!
