Last week I wrote a "Response to a Response" concerning my college trip entry. I took the time and wrote what I (and a number of trusted, very honest friends) thought was a fair and thorough response. I was not attacking, but answered the best and most honest way that I could with someone who was pretty antagonistic and trying to make a point. At the end I said that I wished they would have stated their name and not written anonymously but bravely attached their name. Since last week, my mystery comment bomber has run for cover and has not answered back.
Sad in this day of the internet and anonymity that people make comments and state things with little accountability. They are the cowards of airwaves. Obviously if they believed what they wrote they would stand up and be counted. Or they were someone who just wanted to blow smoke and were too afraid to be identified!
This is a good reminder....if you have something to say....you believe it....and you are willing to stand up for it -- identify yourself. Don't hide in the shadows. Don't hide behind the anonymous title -- like the "Cowardly Lion" on OZ....get some cowards! Justa thought!
