Hypocritical for a sec...

Wow. I am sitting at my computer, speechless. There is so much hate out there. Hashem, please please bring Moshiach! Why can't we like each other?? I don't know why I'm posting this except for the fact that tears came to my eyes and my heart started racing.
Call me emotional. Fine.
I just read a blog (and no, I'm not going to link to it) that had so much hate for it. No matter if you're Chassidic, Black Hat (which I didn't even know was a term, but apparantly it is..), or Modern Orthodox. Or anything else for that matter. There are people out there, I don't know (or ever want to know) who they are, but sit and write blogs or comments on blogs or whatever and post them on the Internet. And the purpose? To say bad things about other Jews. Mean, horrible things. Closed-minded, thoughtless things. I really wish I could cry to this particular person, hug him (tho I technically wouldn't do that), and show him that frum people are good! There are so many people who love the Jews, love each other and themselves! How do you get through to a mind that refuses to listen? (Or as someone I know says, are "so openminded that their brains fall out").
Well..that'll stop my foray into the blog world for a while. I can post on my own site, and check those of my friends, but people are really sad, scary, and hurt out there. I only wish that they could meet some of the people that I've met.
And to the person who I'm specifically talking about, if you somehow find my site and post nasty, hurtful things on it, I am going to delete them. So please don't bother. I have no problem with different ideas, but if your point is ONLY to condemn other people, you can ask me for references, and I'll refer you to some of the most amazing people in the world. And there are quite a few of them that I know. And I'm only one person in this huge world. So imagine how many you could find if you asked around or tried to look for them.
I hope everyone has a wonderful, enlightening, inspired and G-d filled day.

Please. Rub it in. (2X!!) But wait-no, you didn't warn me!!
I'm just naive. I want everyone to like each other and see the good in people. It makes me sad when people are stupid and childish..

Just wanted to prove that Jews are all nice to other Jews-regardless of color, stripe, or head covering. See Devorah's blog on being saved by the Williamsburgians (or their relatives) http://goodshabbos.blogspot.com/2004/07/rescued-williamsburg-style.html#comments

Don't bother what other people say.

I'm sorry, dearie. (The Eiseman girls make SUCH fun of me for saying that.) Honestly, I've found the blogs to be quite boring actually.

And if you take offense at my latest post, I'm sorry. Lemme know, and maybe I'll do s/t about it to make you happy...and to make myself NOT sound like all those argumentative bloggers out there...

I am upset about your latest post...but it's not cause of you, it's cause of the person it's about and their actions. Call me naive. I just want people to love each other...
