I stumbled across Manicured Monkey today, and was overjoyed to find this campaign linked on her blog. You see, although I'm a bit snarky and silly at times, I have to say that I completely agree with what this pledge is all about. I have had my own feelings hurt on the internet a few too many times. And I've seen far too much competitiveness and nastiness about it all. So, I am taking the pledge. You should too. Unless you want the dark side to win. And by the dark side I mean the Cylons and Jaffa. You know I'm right.
AS A KIND-HEARTED BLOGGER I PLEDGE TO:
- create, inspire, and admire rather than compete with fellow bloggers
- be understanding of each other-- in the blogging community, as well as in the world
- stay away from internet/blogging bullying
- speak my opinion freely, while still being mindful of other's feelings-- be tactful.
- make an effort--no matter how big or small the gesture, to spread kindness or joy to others
- acknowledge that I will make mistakes, (I am only human) but remember to learn from them
- know that at times I will post about the negative stuff in life, and maybe even some complaining (I am only human) but I will always follow up with something happy/positive too.
- believe that this world is a good place, filled with good people.
So, are you taking the pledge?
