Don't Let Them Bring You Down!

This morning I woke up to a horrible comment on my YouTube channel. It was mean and it's easy to throw insults back at the person to make them feel low and shitty but then I would be no better than that person, it's best to not spread the negativity and give them the satisfaction of knowing they have successfully brought me down.











Why do people try to put each other down?

It's usually because they feel so angry and down about themselves that they feel a need to bring down others in order to make themselves feel good.

It's a bad thing really but it's part of human nature that a lot of people forget that they can control. You have a choice to choose your words and how you say them.

A second comment they pointed out is "if you can't handle critisism don't post your videos on YouTube :)"

I would like to point out that I can handle critisism good and bad, however it doesn't mean I will appreciate negative comments.

Just because someone is having a bad day or is just hateful doesn't mean they have a right to put you down. Yeah it sucks waking up to a negative comment like that first thing in the morning but as I said, 'Don't Let A Bad Moment Give You A Bad Day.'

The only person who really knows you is you, just walk away. Don't give them that little satisfaction of letting them know they have your attention. Pushing the block button is easier than explaining yourself to someone who doesn't even know you who in the first place you don't have to explain yourself to.

After dealing with that I started thinking of things that I did know about myself. I know I'm a good artist and a lot of my friends would agree without a second thought. I know I'm not the best artist there is out there but it doesn't matter I love to draw and paint and what matters is that it makes me feel good and happy.

I had brought the issue up to a few close friends of mine and they were swift to agree that I am a talented artist and the other person was just a jerk.

All in all at the end of the day I know who I am and what I enjoy doing. My friends have my back and the opinions of the ones I love truly matters when the day has come to a close. Not some stranger that decides that they wanted to be an asshole that day.

Don't let those kind of people get to you, keep doing what you makes you truly happy. We all deserve to be happy so don't let those few mean people snatch it away from you.

Enjoy what you do best, smile while you do it and simply have fun!

Life is too short to dwell on the past and hurtful comments from strangers, don't waste your time on those who don't deserve even a second of it.

Enjoy yourself and be happy!
