≈ Above All, Dignity and Love!
Sad . . . There are some MEAN dancers out there!
Mon, November 21, 2005 - 12:03 PMThere are people tucked away in care centers and nursing facilites who would just LOVE to see a 10 minute program. Would that be a waste of time? I, for one, don't think so. Said strumpet thought that she didn't want to help feed someone their Ensure or rescue a cat out of a tree. She assumed that's what a volunteer does. Small minded little creature. Had she had an open heart perhaps she would have realized that 10 minutes out of one day in an entire year doing what she loved (dancing) would have made someone smile for a very long time. But no, no humanity there.
It saddens me to think that a very small number people in the dance community can be so narrow minded and cruel. And even though it is a very small number indeed, these people still upset my day. Being kind to someone shouldn't be laughed at like some little snip did to me. Volunteering to brighten someone's day shouldn't be made fun of like someone did to me. If kindness gets laughed at and ridiculed, what's next?
And if everything works out time wise, I WILL be volunteering at the Stiletto event!

Mean people suck!
The good news is that there are totally rabid activists that make time every single day to try to save the world, in between volunteer gigs: members.cox.net/bonnie_margay/May all of your loving kindnesses be tripled and returned to you. |

You know, I love all of you ladies, and I have to ask, why bother even reading or posting to that "other" site anymore?
It's clearly full of stuck-up a**holes who aren't worth your time. Those of you who are apart of our social circle are ten times the human beings that those sanctimonious little bitches will ever be. I say just leave them to their nastiness and stay here, where you are valued and appreciated. Just my $.02... |

Well, my dear Atilla, you know how *I* feel about you. Let other miserable people be miserable. If that is what they need to feel to have any feeling at all, it's sad, but you will not likely be able to change them.
But you do brighten many people's lives all the time. Thank you for that. |

Thank you so much, everyone! This just shook me up a bit . . . and Tim, you're right. I'm not going to play over there anymore! I'm staying here where being quirky is something people love about me . . .

Faizeh! You are just so sweet.
You're right, trying to enlighten them is a lot like trying to teach a pig to sing . . . it's a waste of my time and it annoys the pig! |

Pigs make much better ham sandwiches than singers and anyone that would be ignorant enough to ridicule you deserves to be killed and eaten.

You know, mean people do suck, but what can you do. Just ignore them and keep doing what you are doing. Sometimes it is hard, and venting does help sometimes. I think what you do is so valuable. Giving of yourself takes a big person, not some mean spirited litte dancers who can't take a look at a bigger picture than themselves.

Sugar to my Sugar
Hey Babe....
Thanks so much for your support - Spiral loves you oh so much... It is unfortunate that "those handful" o' dancers were/are so cruel, (me gots some attacks on "that other site" as well)... but just remember that in the big picture... They suck, we rule. Period. ;) XOXO! P* |

Zari - I love that quote. May I use it?
Now here's my advice. If and when you go to the other site, think of it as a venture into absurity. Consider all of them bumbling idiots that you can have fun irritating. When they lash out at you, it is just the crazy people trying to get out of the asylum. Most people who talk shit about you are really telling you about themselves. Point that out, it really makes em mad. |

I love that you give something of yourself to brighten other peoples worlds. Everytime I do that, I get soooooo much more out of it than what I give. How sad that those "others " can't see the value in that. Keep on doing the right thing and don't let the bastards get you down!

Thankful . . .
Now this is what Thanksgiving is all about . . . people who know me and those who haven't met me yet, but you've all got my back. THANK YOU one and all!
I was really starting to feel bad because I like to do good things for other people. ~sigh~ |
