Re: LOL
(Anonymous) 2011-12-07 06:38 am (UTC)(link)I know what it feels like, not belonging and everyone else acting like they're from a whole different species.
Your heart is in the right place and I think it's awesome that you want to create art and live a happy, different life than what you've seen in your hometown. I think everyone wants to visit a different place and know a different life at some point of their lives. It is perfectly normal.
You don't sound like a bad person, but this is not the way to go about growing as a person and experiencing the world. Not everyone who disagrees is doing it to be mean or to make you feel bad.
Nobody is perfect. We can all make mistakes. I can make mistakes. The people commenting your pages can make mistakes. You can make mistakes. And that's okay. It's not something wrong, or bad. As long as you accept it and try to be better anyway, you'll keep growing as a person and becoming someone worthy of your peers' respect.
You seem to believe that everyone is just being mean or trolling you or something. I don't doubt that some really were trolls, but most people commented that way because they were hurt by what you said. They shouldn't have called you names, but you should have tried to listen to them at least. You can listen to people and be calm and not lash out even if you don't agree with them. That is perfectly fine.
But if you don't treat people with respect, people won't treat you with respect either.
Talk to a therapist, a doctor, a teacher, your school principal, someone. You need help, even if you can't see it now.
Also, I saw your art. Some of it looked promising, but you need to practice more. You like drawing people, correct? Try learning more anatomy. Look at how the human skeleton looks. Memorize it until you can picture it in your mind. I've found that once I did that my drawing skills improved very quickly, and I hope it will work for you too!
It's not a good idea to let criticism put you off art, but it's also not a good idea not to listen to it carefully in case there is a good tip for improving hidden in it!
I wish you the best.
