Great post. Blogging had become to me something that I'm not sure what I did before without it. It does give you a thick skin and it helps you challenge your own thoughts and opinions so you're constantly learning. Looking forward to more posts from you.

Your post is very timely in light of a recent comment someone posted on my blog.
I get that when you put your thoughts, ideas, etc. out there for anyone with Internet access to see and read, you are opening yourself up for people to disagree with you, in whatever form they deem appropriate. Which, to me, is fine. I think taking other's points of view into consideration expands our own world view and helps us grow.
I started blogging as a creative outlet to write about whatever I'm pondering at the moment. Nothing more, nothing less. Last week I saw that someone had posted a "snarky" comment about one of my posts. It wasn't the fact that this person disagreed with my conclusions that irritated me...it was the fact that this person didn't tell me why they didn't agree. I think if you're going to disagree with someone, you should at least offer an explanation as to why you don't agree.
I think that the anonymity the web provides gives some people some sort of perceived power to say whatever they want, to say things they would never dream of saying to someone's face. In blogging, thick skin is a requirement.

Thanks!!
It's true... I'd prefer if they gave reasons, instead of just being negative for no reason.
My skin is thickening!!
