Hey, so I’m here now to talk about something not much pleasant.
Not long ago I posted this:
About how Lucifer left me be deceived for 7 years by an impostor. The same way that people who had a wonderful experience with him share such experience whenever the opportunity come/someone ask about him/about it, I share mine too. It’s fair. While many were/are supportive, including in my original post, and others through the comments I made just ignore which is fine, some people were not so nice and replied me in a way that made me feel like they were trying invalidating my experience. Diminishing it.
So I’m here to make an appeal. Whenever you see someone sharing a bad experience about someone or something don’t interact with it if you don’t have any kind, supportive or similar word to say, don’t comment things like “just because you had a single bad experience doesn’t mean…” or anything that sounds like you’re blaming the person for it. A person’s bad experience don’t invalidate your good experience, just like your good experience don’t invalidate mine. And both must be share so newbies and anyone who wanna try that experience be aware that not always will be a good one. Be aware is not be afraid.
If you think there’s something wrong, that there’s not way that experience go bad, that it must be the person’s fault, than why not try to help them understand what actually happend and see the truth instead of just judge them and try invalidate their experiences? So if someone said they had a bad experience with x entity and you think that’s impossible that this entity do what he’s been accused of, well instead of invalidate the person experience, why don’t you help them than see what actually happened if you’re so certain that the experience didn’t happened cause that entity would never do that?
My point here than is, when someone post, comment about their bad experience with someone or something, if you can’t help in anyway, not even with a kind word because you don’t believe in that, than don’t say anything. Just don’t reply, ignore. “I’m practicing be kind instead of be right” that’s a great line from a book that in many case we all should practice. When someone is hurt by their experience the last thing they need is hear people diminishing their experience or pain or invalidating the whole thing. You don’t know how it was, you don’t know how they felt, be more empathetic with a human being before get so desperately to defend your idol/god/father/lover/etc. spirit.
Be kinda people. All experiences are valid.
If you have nothing constructive to add or any way to help or any kind word to give don’t say anything. In fact this goes to any post, thread here I guess.
Thanks,
