Cautious

It's almost the end of the week & I keep pushing myself to do as much as I can to please everyone & myself. I think I need to step back & accept that if I don't take care of myself no one else will. I won't burn my bridges. I had to write this evening, as tired as I am, just had to vent this out.

I was approached by an individual who said they follow me on the Chicago Examiner, they enjoy my articles & advice. I replied "Thank You" & assumed the conversation was over; when this person continued speaking in a tone which somewhat frightened me. It was little sarcastic. I simply said "Well thank you I have to go now".  This person began following me and yelling " Yeah B**#$ you think you're smart & know it all, you ain't nothing but a H#*.." I quickly went into a nearby restaurant & called home to tell my partner of what had occurred. I waited it out and when I felt safe left the place and went on my way.

I am always cautious when it comes to certain events or posting certain things, but when I blog, comment or write an article. I am very well aware of the fact that some people do not agree with some things I say & type. I always take the good with the bad however today's awkwardness opened up my eyes more to simply be more careful with my readers, followers & fans. I just never thought it would come to a point where I would feel frightened by it but I won't let it stop me from doing what I love to do best either. I just had to share this with all of you & let all other bloggers know what I'm sure you already know; to be careful no matter where you go.

So as always thanks for reading. )0(
