Social networking frustrations...oh joy

          Is it me, or is it something I did, or said. None of my social networking sites are doing what they are supposed to do. Locations are missing, sites in general acting crazy, not connecting. Or connecting incorrectly, and behaving in ways not seen by me, before. Have I been negative...? Or is something else going on.... Has the Internet become overloaded, is my connection breaking down, or something worse.....ahhh, actually I have done something out of character! Allowing myself to become disrupted.
        Perhaps that explains why everything has gone to hell in a hand basket. As it most certainly has, for the past few hours trying to get anywhere on line, was crazy tunes. It has taken every ounce of control I have to continue trying to work through these problems for the whole afternoon. How frustrating is waiting, trying, and failing for simple sites to operate as they should. The wit who said www. means..waiting, waiting, waiting... Is on the ball I think. Trying to make the sites revert to their correct behaviour patterns was futile.it started me thinking, trying to see the reason.
         It began last night, with an unexpected message popping into my email, informing me of a Facebook message. As I read, becoming really annoyed with that someone, a person I don't even know, and have no memory of meeting. Someone, a woman/girl/halfwit, Facebook friend, of another Facebook contact... only that remote. 
          You see, I am still annoyed by her inane, and unwarranted comments. All because of some face, she connected, out of the blue. Incidents? (she said) that were upsetting to her, nearly thirty years ago. How stupid is that, but as it concerned I, and my family, it caught my attention.  Perhaps she should have thought about her comments, before maligning me,  untruthfully, and publicly, directly, or indirectly. That direction, lies slander!
           I, should have stepped right back, and not reacted today. I should have remained aloof. I did however react to her, with firm remarks, objecting to her summation. 
          Yes, I know I should not today, have reacted at all, perhaps.... Except, I have never been good at 'turning the other cheek', I think one undeserved slap, is more than enough! Even though I know some people have no common sense, thinking its permissible to say what they want to the world. On Facebook, they are not having a private conversation, they are publishing it for all to see. The private facility, between two people was not utilised here, for this version of her truth.
           Unsurprisingly, I did not let it pass, I am only human, and she hit a sore spot I suppose. Back then, I was proud of what I did. Managing in a difficult, and demanding situation, taking great care to be reputable, for myself, and my career. I will not go into details, except her remarks, her opinion, published on Facebook, was slanted in such a way, as to make us appear in a bad light, as something I was NOT, as we were not!
            Now, I know that kind of thing, cannot be right, and I took great exception to it. I take great exception to it.  I informed her, not to further malign me, and to desist in dragging up such warped memories, with no substantiation.
              It just goes to show though, how upsetting yourself, and becoming embroiled in anything of this nature, is futile, and does you no good. It shatters your positive outlook, and takes you down to the level of such people. People, who seem to live only for such bits of drama, played out in public. Pure fantasy, scraped from anywhere, in order to somehow, make themselves more important. 
             It's something I don't need in my life, nasty disruptions of this kind. It does me, nor anyone, any favours. Building up my own positive situations, and making the most of my opportunities needs a single minded approach, avoiding such negative situations, of spite, or anger.
             Now, I need to still that little busy voice inside, the one I spoke of yesterday. I need to rebuild my positive picture, of what my life is. I will let go of anger, and step away, permanently. The comments, so unfair, and undeserved, took me by surprise. Now why should that be, why do I care about her, or about who might read it. I should not worry about it at all, I should not allow it to upset my equilibrium. Too late, it did upset me, as did the lack of any sort of reasonable reply to my objections.
           Facebook for personal, and family will be closed..deactivated. Because the joy I get from the nice contacts, the family news, do not make up for the troublemakers, and the insensitive. Those, who are allowed into my pages through loose associations with family or friends. Women, like this one, who I did not choose to be there. Those incidents, too regular on Facebook, are not wanted in my life.
               ..........................................................................................................................
            MY POSITIVE AFFIRMATION:
             My life is pleasant, my life is tranquil. All the people I have in my life are loving, and caring, of me, and my family. The social networking sites I belong to, are all positive, and uplifting. My friends, and family are supportive of me, and my well being. I have a full, and pleasant life, enjoying my family, friends, work, travel, pastimes, and relaxation.
             My life is perfect, and fulfilling in every way......
                ...........................................................................................................................
             So, my friends, if something, or someone in your life ruins your equilibrium, and your peace of mind. Or, if someone is unkind, and thoughtless, cut them from your thoughts, and your life. Do not worry, or fret about them, step back, and soon, you will see... What comes around, goes around. Except, it will no longer be involving you in its unpleasantness. For you have not chosen to be connected.
              Have a quiet mind, enjoy your life...
              you will then attract more love to yourself. If you are without the love you want, look carefully at yourself, and what you are giving out to others.
              Be happy....
