UKD - you are CERTIFIABLE BabySis! LOL That is tooooo funny! I try to respect people, deal above board at all times & I expect folks to react in kind. With all the stuff that’s going on in my world right now, THIS was not something I needed to deal with.

Told ya I was a ‘verbal pitbull’ when pushed.

Soulfull - *curtsy* Thank you.

Awesomely displayed words. As always, I’m in your corner. Funny how people want to ride your coat tails. I’ve dealt with that myself–people wanting to profit off of my name. She better let Jesus free her. Seriously.

Thanks Princess. I certainly hope she’s learned her lesson & if she DOES have other people’s work on her site she should remove that too. Craziness. I mean, how are people going to be your friend & respect you if you’re fronting? *SMH*…vigorously.

Wow. Just wow! Your God given talent is reflected throughout this entire post. Anyone who tries to copy your steelo is just setting themselves up for failure. Skills like this can’t be imitated.

Jackie, I did not read this whole post cause I was getting a lil worked up myself. I get the gist. I feel ya and agree.

In truth we don’t own anything on this Earth. We don’t own words or thoughts so to speak, if you can understand that. Hence, why did someone use words just like you. There is more than one way to express a sentiment why use another’s? Originality that is my point. I can express just what you said in such a way it looks different and is about the same subject.

I hope I am getting myself across clearly. I just think of my time spent writing posts and especially my poetry. Cause a person plargarize me is getting cut. LOL.

Single Ma - thanks Girlie. Maybe I expect too much of other people but dang - do you Boo! That’s all I’m saying. Like I said, I gotta thank her for driving all that traffic to my spot.

Shai - don’t get yourself worked up Girl. I’m trying to let it go. Just another thing I’ll never understand & I’m ok with that. We don’t own “individual” words but the combinations of those words that I string together? Yeah, that’s mine. LOL That’s all I’m saying - be original, be yourself. She could have quoted me in a few places & filled it out with her own insights but she did it the other way around.

I don’t deal well with fake a** people. Once I see that, I’m out. And someone who would STEAL another person’s thoughts shows me that they don’t think highly of me or themselves. Now THAT kind of person? Definitely would get cut. And um…I think she got cut, verbally speaking. *wink*

Boy, I bet she wishes she never heard the word Soliloquies!Can you imagine what is going through her mind now - how nervous, ashamed, and afraid she has got to be? You know that friends (or so called friends) of hers have found out what’s up and we know how that goes. Talk about making a wrong turn - she did. Talk about poor judgement - she exercised it! She has been chastised for her indiscretions, and as my mother used to tell me, “you don’t want the Lord to have to whip you into submission”.

Jackie, I hope that one day this violation stops hurting so badly. I understood so well what you were saying about it robbing you of your sense of well-being and comparing it to that break in. This was so unfair!

Guess she never heard of Google’s cache huh?

*waving* HEY SOULFULL!

Peggy - I’m sure all those feelings & more have her tied up in knots (and hopefully “NOTS” too). I’m moving past it. It just stings because you expect people to be honest/above board, and then she lies & cloaks herself in Jesus talk. Folks have no idea what a leap of faith it has been in my life to even start sharing my writing with others and then here she comes. I certainly don’t wish her any ill-will but she needs to check herself. And definitely NOT repeat this type of thing. Ugh!

Hey Creole! *waving back* You know she hasn’t. Like my Grandma used to say, “What you do in the dark will come to light.”

My favorite part of this post was how you call God “the God who knows my name.” That title is inexplicably beautiful to me. And I’m a Buddhist.

One good thing to come out of this ugliness…I found your writing. Which I guess means, I found you.

MsJayy said…
Hey L. *waving* Yeah…took me a while to work thru my own mess to realize that God does indeed know my name. It is a beautiful thang. You’re right about a good thing coming out of this. I pray that the same holds true for the “booster”.

Yeah the words are tight but I’m saying, if I pay for a flight to Kansas City or wherever the “Swag Jacker” lives, can we just roll up on her and take it to her?!?!?!?! LOL.

You know how I know she jacked your style?…How many people you know that can spell soliloquies?!?!?!?! Let’s be real….

MsJayy said…
Um…Fresh? You ain’t helping. LOL Don’t think I didn’t consider it. Fly out, punch her out & drop by to visit my relatives before leaving town. :O)

Yeah, that “soliloquies” gave it away along with the “unique” spelling of Soulfull. But then again, she probably thought that was the correct way to spell the word.

Ok, Mz. Jackie, I am curious, email me the chick’s blog offsite, please. LOL.
