Why is it when someone voices their OWN opinion here you start to jump down their throats and call them out? I've stayed clear of most ''since you started posting'' of your post cause I see PURE hate in them and attacks for what posters have posted/believed. Really you're no better then others when you reply with your hateful posts? I don't mean any offense with this post, but it's just what I've seen over the last month or so. I really do hope you stay and enjoy what can be posted at times here.

RESPONSE FROM TLOU:
You have a very valid point, homey & I appreciate what you said. I WAS in a very angry place in my world & I'm sorry that you felt that you couldn't post. That was never my intention & I apologize from the bottom of my heart, to you & anyone else that felt this way!
I was THE fat kid with crazy teeth on the playground. I heard the cruel words, but even then, didn't accept them, for myself or others. I have always had a strong sense of who I am & in God's love for me.
I learned @ a very young age how hurtful words can be. When the kids on the playground called me ''fatty pants, or chipmunk teeth'', did they mean what they said or just going along with the crowd? I was a fat adult; I could tell you stories about how free people felt calling out insults. I NEVER cared what they thought. I felt sorrow for them because of their short-sightedness. I lost all that weight & now I'm accepted because I ''fit in''.
It is deeply ingrained in my soul, homey. Maybe it's wrong? It's a part of me. I am who I am & I say what I mean, I always have, & my friends are the same way. Thank you for calling me out! Too many people just go along w/ the crowd & spew hatred because of past hurts. Is that ok? You spoke from your heart. You said your peace & meant what you said.
You are NOT easily swayed. Don't let my words or opinions stop you,homey. TY for your input, I will think about it.
