You pointed out something very important for all of us to think about when we post. We have be careful, because we are all from different backgrounds. Content that may come across as harmless may actually be offensive and/or triggering to other members. We just don't know.
It is hard to find the balance and navigate the online world.

Thank you! I did some serious soul searching because it really hurt my heart to think that Newtus felt ganged up on and judged. And that she wasn't comfortable posting how she felt. I did not intend to be the cause of any of her suffering. I seriously only desired to help and to have her see things through a different set of eyes. That statement from me could look harsh and like I was judging when really that wasn't my intentions. I was trying to make a point. Therefore I think I over stepped boundaries.
If she and I could have been sitting face to face and she could of seen my emotions when I said that then she would understand that I wasn't being mean. I honestly wasn't.
If I am in the wrong I can take a step back and own my stuff. I learn from my mistakes. This is how I grow to be a better person.
