I don't know your name, and quite frankly, I never like addressing someone whose name I don't know, but...I guess I'll just have to deal with it for this post. :)
BECAUSE you choose to comment annonymously, I cannot click on your 'username' and thus, find SOME way to contact you privately...so that leaves me with no alternative, but to just make my rebuke public.
I'm not the only person who has been hurt by your rude comments on my blog. Another friend of mine told me of finding your comment(s) on her blog too...all of which were very rude and hurtful. By commenting under 'annonymous', it gives me the impression that you want to keep your identity hidden because you don't want us tracing back to you. I find this very underhanded, sneaky and immature.
I went to the link that you had commented, saying that I should 'check this out', and I was...again, very hurt by what I read. But I'm not going to let you or anyone else stop me from what I post about on my blog. I'm not asking you to read it, so don't go back-biting me. If you don't like reading it, you don't have to. Go find another blog that you would enjoy reading!
And, honestly, I am ashamed of the other people who participate in such a ridiculous site as the one you left a link to. I would think you people would have something better to do, than just talk bad about others.
In defense of myself, I would like to say that...#1 - I apologize that I had my Latin wrong. :D Gosh, you didn't have to bite my head off...AND I'm ashamed that you would've used God's Name so loosely in that rude comment about me not naming my fashion blog 'correctly'. I hope you don't claim to be a Christian.
#2 - The rude comments that you left about a week ago...blatantly insulting my physical features and how often I post on God's Daughter. (This also goes for the rude comments that you left on my friend's blog.) 'Rude' doesn't sound like a word to describe those comments accurately enough. And no, I don't 'sit at the computer all day'...I just type fast. ;) AND, just so you know...my parents know how long I spend on the computer and what/how often I write about.
So...I think I've said enough. I'm not going to play your childish game of insults, so I'm just going to end by saying that I'll be praying for you...and please stop leaving such rude comments. They're never going to get published anyway, so, why waste your time? Please find a more profitable thing to do...

I've had some unpleasant anonymous comments this week too! Someone must be looking to start some trouble. Don't pay any attention to what they say; I think your blog is great!
How dare someone insult you that way, Miss Raquel!!!!!! Oh, if I could ever get a hold of these people who comment like this......
But, I do think you've beat this person: Instead of responding with hate {like I might have done} you instead are going to pray for that person. Bravo, girlie!!!!!
Love always,
~Lily
You go miss Raquel! *BIG SMILE* It is so sad to see how Satin is using this person for his work! Isn't it??? This person must be very insecure if He/She has nothing better to do with their time.... I will be praying for who ever it is, as well as keep you in my prayers that you may remain strong no matter what anyone says! :D
~Johanna~
I am sorry, dear! Good for you for standing strong and not giving in to rudeness yourself!
Through Christ,
LH
I cant believe someone would be that childish! Im so sorry you have been having those issues my friend. You certainly do NOT owe them an explanation! You are way better than that.
i like your response, mature, and wise..... I will pray for them as well...
Just so you know... I love your blog, and how often you post is great!

You're so right...it's just so stupid, if you don't like it, just leave...no one HAS to read what they don't like....
I really enjoy your blog, by the way!
Continue to strive for Godliness even if people give you negative comments. I think you're a wonderful person!
Don't listen to what they say baby girl! You are beautiful inside and out, and they are just cowards- they can't say those things to your face, and they can't even do it online (identified) so just who cares!?
" But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you" (Luke 6:27-28).
We love you. And that is all that matters. Delete the comments if you want, but you could even leave them for the world to see how PATHETIC they are.
Love,
Makay
That is so...uggghhh! if they don't like your blog, they don't have to read it. as for me, i like your blog (a lot!) and think it's perfectly fine that you made a mistake in your latin. i mean, nobody's perfect. and you posting stuff a lot gives me something to read!
and anonymous, all i can say is what stephanie tanner would say.
HOW RUDE!
Wow. That is awful. I'm so sorry, Raquel. :( You handled it very well. :) You were kind, but said what needed to be said. Oh, and I don't know what this person (who was being exceedingly rude, I might add) said about your physical features, but I happen to think that you are a gorgeous girl. Don't take what she said personally. And I LOVE your blog. Keep it up!
I'm sorry; that's really sad, Raquel. :( I don't understand how someone can be so mean. I was getting anon comments on my blog, so I just totally removed that anonymous option.
You have just said what many of up have been unable to. I'm sure many of us get rude anonymous comments like that and are too shy to say anything. Thank you for speaking out against the anonymous flamer! You continue being who God wants you to be and write what He wants you to write! God Bless! ~Meggie
Miss Raquel, "The LORD is perfecting that which concerns you" (Ps. 138:8 amp)
Your desire to remain wholy pure and full of integrity with this unnamed person is obvious!!! Your aim to please the One who you write for IS making a difference! You've had your say and "they" (annonymous as well as a plethora of others, I'm certain) will continue to peek at your untainted views of life with distain (for what they do not have due to the darkness of their own soul). Just fix your gaze on The Prize...HE is soooo worth it!

Ooh, you said it, dear! :)
*Hehe..*
..No, you really did. What a good and gracious response to Mr. (or Mrs.?) Anonymous. Thanks for bringing this out in the open to him/her and standing with others against this!
Love,
Lu
I suppose that by now, with such plethora of comments from all of your followers, you realize how much you and your blog are loved.
Last night your Dad brought up the scripture from Proverbs in which it says: "A fool does not delight in understanding, But only in revealing his own mind" (NASB). If he hasn't brought this verse to your attention yet, then let me merely be the messenger.
Have a good week, and don't let this get you down.
Hey girl,
I have not commented in awhile and wanted to let you know I still read your blog:) Don't let foolish people who have nothing to do get you down. I too have had mean ones before,but just ignore them. Have a great day:) God bless
Jennifer
Don't listen to a thing the annonymous commenter says! You are beautiful and you have a wonderful blog!! I think they are looking to start some trouble...but I think it's really mature of YOU to be praying of them. Right on, Raquel!
Talia
we're all going to have hurtful things leveled at us at one point or another, and I think you handled this one wonderfully, my dear! :) and FYI, I LOVE how much you update your blog--I'm online a lot so I like always seeing something new on here <3
May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope,
encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word. 2 Thess. 2:16-17
