An open apology to Marvin the Martian

Sometimes in my transition from Eeyore to Hope, I go through some behavioural (thats how we spell it in canada) outbursts for which I later have to apologize. This is one of those times.

Marvin, I am so sorry that I said some very rude things about you. I like you. Most days I smile when I see you. From now on, even in my darkest of moods, I will call you Marvin. I will give you the respect you deserve.

With some of things going around the world today, I should be sensitive to what is important to others, and not to say things just because I can.

Is there a way to gets those comment posts off there? I am embarrassed about my bad behaviour, and would like to make ammends.

That's very insightful.
Each day I set aside time to reflect. Because I have so many things that i ponder, and there's that tendancy to wander, I find if I set up a schedule, I usually have everything covered by the time next week is ready to attack.
Fridays are set aside for reflecting on when i may have gone a little too far in the past week.
I'm still workin on it.

Marvin is a forgiving little fella. He has set his ray gun back from KILL to STUN.

In your 'about me' section you say "I am an intuative person who does not always listen to herself." The fact that you stop and review and notice those times when you behaved in a way other than you'd have liked is pretty amazing. Most people are not that self-analytical. However, please be gentle with yourself as you do this. Your posts yesterday were so very relatable. It give us the opportunity to see a bit more of ourselves through you. That really is one of the main reasons I keep returning to your blog. I'd really rather you not delete your previous posts. You never reached the point of embarassing behavior. The creative and honest way you share yourself is one of the things I keep aiming for in my own writing. Thank you.

Thank you. One of my grannies was a very very old and intuative soul, and taught me that we are all
inuative, but we must seek quiet moments to listen to ourselves. I love my blog, because it allows me these quiet moments, to focus, not on my life in it's entirety, but on one little element. I also like to laugh. I enjoy your visits. I like your new picture!

PS oshee, I was not really thinking of erasing comments. Sometimes I can irreverent as well as insightful. i can barely resist bugging W3 just a little.
I was however, very sincere in my apology to Marvin.

W3. Is Marvin's safety on? I'm afraid he might trip.

Fret not, fair citizen. Marvin is a professional.
