I this day of internet, it seems that we find others on facebook or other places that are angry at us for the way we think. The problem is that nobody truly knows us. The only ones who truly know us are those around us. Nobody, including me as I can see that I am guilty as well many times, truly knows how hard we try, how much we help others and so many other aspects of us. They get just a little glimpse of us. It may be that it's anger at someone, it may be that it's just the fun times we have, but at the end, nobody every bothers to try to understand ALL of us. And thus, we all sometimes fail, and sometimes we judge. But only we know what we do.

I say this because I have been guilty of being critical of what others do, yet that does not mean that I believe they are bad people. I might not agree at all with what they do with one aspect of their lives, yet it does not mean that I know or judge them in all aspects of their lives.

I get a bit tired of those who come here and think that SMOMS are bad because of what we say here, when so many of us have given so much...but this doesn't apply only here. It applies even on facebook. When we see "we're having a great time" and you feel like telling people off because you are so hurt by them. None of us truly know if they are. They might have cried for days thinking their daddy is not around and then post crazy things to make themselves feel better. We just don't know.

So, I hope that everyone who comes here understands that although we might not always be sympathetic, it does NOT mean that we believe that they are horrendous people...we don't really know them. We only speak of the situation presented and not about them as a whole person.

Peace to all of you...many who have gone through so much. I know NOBODY here wants their life to be filled with so much stress and anger...it just happens.

May you all have a great weekend and know that this group is truly an amazing group of women just trying to make their lives and those around theirs better...

PS - right now everyone thinks I can't spell...but really, I'm not on my computer and I can't type
