giving thanks-modified version 2

in the spirit of yesterday's post about the blog cummiunity i received some dope responses.
one of which struck a chord with me.....see this is why you are down with me...and sometimes you tend to complete my thoughts. or call me out on the things i've missed. good ole Mali E./Tren/Bosslady

just like everything else in life there are the positive and negative aspects of the www. it's perfectly okay when people are using the "web" as a tool for learning, growth, networking, building, etc., however it's not okay to become overly consumed in it or maybe i should say tangled in it . Life calls for balance and just as we can come together and build communities on line we should be able to do the same offline. We should be able to reflect whatever lives inside of us that is revealed "online" "offline". I big up the truth and so often truth get's twisted in lies.. Respect to those who are real in cyberworld and the real world as well..

which me brings me to think of what weighs most. balance. being able to balance in both worlds. i tend to not find this commonality in board posts or posters. you know boards where people can post comments regarding certain topics. what comes to mind is okayplayer.com. really cool site i must say and it is imformative, but most of the information has been overshawdowed by brainless posts about this or that. i myself have posted many times on that board...but the random posts about who's elite and who's not, why this artist isn't what or who they say they are......basically it's just plain tiresome. i used to visit OK back in the day before it was taken over and i could go there meet cool people-build relationships and exchange. not anymore-well not unless you happen to run into someone thats independant of all the bullshit. im sadden by the behaviors people tend to put out in cyberspace.....you have the cyber elite, cyber thugs, cyber bitches and hoes, internet chat geeks, backpackers, overall haters,johnny come lately fans....by the way these are labels that these people have placed on themselves...lol i've seen it....

ok my concentration has been ruined/cutoff by havinng to train someone today......so i will contiue this on tomorrow
blah
