I am weak trying my best to be strong.

On By justme0486In Life

Dear reader I am weak trying my best to be strong, people on my FB page have been posting comments and pictures about the president that I am pretty sure they wouldn’t post if he was White. I feel weak for not confronting them, I just don’t want to start a fight when I highly doubt that I can make them see the light. I wish I was stronger :(.

  1. People who play hard core with a keyboard look for people to make those comments and argue with them.
    You are better than that. Show them you are strong by just walking away.

    It’s the same on my Facebook, especially since this whole Martin/Zimmerman thing got blown so out of proportion. My *family* does it, so I know the inner (agony?) of not being able to confront people about things you truly believe in. But if you look on the bright side, there’s only one more year till primaries and we can all forget about that “too black/not black enough” president and start arguing about new ones!!
    My mantra is to pick my battles. I can’t stand up for someone I don’t *personally* know, whether it’s my favorite singer or author or the president. Bu if someone’s trying to talk trash about one of my friends or family members, *then* I have no problem getting involved!
    Maybe you could post a generic “SMH…” comment to show you disagree without starting an argument? (Sometimes I follow “SMH” with “LOL” – makes it sting less.)
    Good luck!

    1. I have deleted two members of my family off my FB page due to some really bad comments. They all know how I feel. It’s just a pic on a family-friend’s wall last night just got to me, I don’t want to start stuff with her on her wall about though :(.
