I never said not to comment - I said keep LONG conversation to PMs please... No worries - don't have the strength to keep up with the Jones and I refuse to do that... How can a topic that was supposed to be soooo peaceful become angry people that hate me because I wanted to keep it pictures only.. All I wanted to do here is help others come to a topic to just quietly look at the peaceful pictures and breathe - and give some that only have a short time left, have a moment to themselves.. I have come to decision that I can't do that here. and It just makes me sad... I'm going to contemplate and breathe... I suggest everyone else do the same.

Anyone can post a pic at any time. I never saw this as a competition but as a glorious flood of beautiful and moving pics! As Lisa says, just look at one pic a day if you want, or every other day. You don`t have to go through them all, the site will keep track of where you left off. I LOVE seeing them ALL!
And Gma, you DID tell us not to comment. That is why some people have left.

Ok, enough of this shit...........GMA it is your thread...............you created it, and you should be able to say what you like on it.
Just a warning Mods don't like this kind of crap..........so enough already..........its not a pissing contest, and pardon my vulgarity, but I dealt with fools before, and this is ridiculous.......and trust me.......it will get you banned..........the Mods don't like "UGLY"....................
GMA......Your the boss here, and don' forget it.................I know someone else who owns her own thread or at least calls it "hers" and gets away with it............so I say "to think different would be a double standad"

WOW! This is unbelievable. I typically don’t comment on
stuff like this, but this is really disturbing.I started following this thread from the beginning and it
used to be one of my favorites. I stopped following it because I just couldn’t
keep up with all of the pictures. I like to post to threads that go a bit
slower – it’s difficult for me to process info and when I get too behind it stresses me
out. No problem – it was my choice.I understand the spirit of the thread – it’s a wonderful
concept GMA. You tried to have a thread that was slow, quiet and peaceful – I
loved the concept – it was unique and I hadn’t seen anything like it.We are all sisters and it shocks me that there isn’t more
respect for the vision of the thread creator. Don’t we owe that to one another?
I feel like she was pretty clear on her vision. I know all threads are open for posting by anyone, but I don’t think I’ve ever
seen someone bullied off of their own thread before. This shocks me and doesn’t
seem right.I’m so sorry GMA – maybe people just didn’t realize what you
were trying to do for people that needed a slower, quieter thread. It was so
helpful to me while going through treatment. It was actually something I could keep up with. Thank you.0 -
Well spoken Slow.......my feeling exactly.............but I had it happen to me too, so now nothing shocks me......and yes........it was actually getting boring.......why...........post after post after post..........and over-kill......is how I would describe it............plus so what if we didn't take all the pictures we posted.........beauty doesn't have to come from your camera..............it can come from a picture hanging on someones wall............enough said........
GMA......you had the most beautiful.........WHY......cause it was right outside your window......you never had to leave your house................

Gma deleted all her posts that basically told us to shut up and yet when she wanted to comment, she felt free to. There wasn`t long discourses on this thread until now, brought to a head by people leaving and commenting as they left. I can`t copy and paste Gma`s original threat as it is deleted, but here is one reaction:

Page 60 had my request - I only deleted pictures that I was trying to keep up with Lisa.. and felt I got caught up with a "top this" attitude. I didn't want that:

That isn't what I meant Barbe - *Hugs* - You commenting on a picture is no problem. They have been short and sweet.
We have always kept the comments to a minimum - PMs for long conversations. That was why I gave permission to discuss this. This was supposed to be a quiet/calming picture only type of topic - The Premise of Topic is below:
"I have been told by many, that my pictures are so peaceful. So here is Picture #1 to start your journey. Come here to retreat whenever you like and remember to breathe. Know that God and the ladies on this board are here for you. Please keep long conversations in PMs to each other."
I don't find, I am feeling peaceful here anymore... That is all.. I feel like it is a competition on who has the fanciest picture.. They are beautiful.. I just feel it has grown into something else. Maybe just a crappy hot day today. I think I will leave it to you all to do what you will.

This is my picture - quiet peaceful with a short note ... Hoping to bring a bit of peace to this horrible time on my topic.
Nancy, Ducky, Slow, and FK - thank you, but sometimes you just have to Let Go and Let God and His beauty take
care of the hardening in the hearts of others.

Gma, I thought it was going brilliantly! Some pages had short notes or comments and other had nothing at all. As a viewer and a not-often poster, I enjoyed the "slide-show" of pic after pic. This is not a competititon and I never saw it as so, so maybe that is just in some minds, but certainly not all.

just to add... I never saw this as a competition and I loved seeing all the pictures.

LOL Ducky, but in a sad way. That's a pretty messed up thing to do to Foley's thread. Definitely building some bad karma -- and you know that I know of what I speak.

My heart isn`t hardened Gma, I still enjoy a great pic!!
