Love one another and help others to rise to the higher levels, simply by pouring out love. Love is infectious and the greatest healing energy. Sai Baba

I once had someone tell me that .. I never have to explain myself. And I think sometimes..especially in second life, I don’t have to. I tried to decide what to put in this latest blog post, and I’ve written it a bunch of times. I finally have decided not to post in detail about my struggles. I am going through things that are difficult and struggling at this time. Thank you for your patience.

However, I will touch base with a few things though, in regards to flickr and tumblr. Some know about the impending changes on tumblr. Flickr has gone through a few as well. I tried to post a picture a few days ago, but the middle arrow was gray to me. I don’t post restrictive photos often, but I air on the side of caution in regards to lingerie or anything sexual in nature. Since, I don’t post restrictive content often… it could have been like this for the longest time and I just didn’t know that you can’t link the picture directly to a blog post.

I love blogging and I would hate worrying about my flickr page, so I’m careful. The US imposed a bill making companies responsible for the content on their websites. Meaning, if sex trafficking were to be found on their website, the government would hold the website responsible. So websites have now been responding with strict rules or new rules all together in regards to content.

As much as I enjoy taking scandalous photos from time to time, I will be careful from now on in regards to my blog. Since I do air on the side of caution and I have worked hard on my blog for quite some time, I will try to make everything as pg as possible on my page. Hopefully that law will be looked at again and changed, since I think this punishes users and not the criminals that they’re seeking. I will link an article speaking about the law. This is the reason for why so many sites are changing their rules. I’ve seen a lot of second life residents react to the rules (such as tumblr), but not question why it’s happening. This is the reason that it’s happening.. unfortunately.

The reason I will air on the side of caution is because once censorship begins… one has to wonder where it will stop and one has to wonder how it will effect them. Meaning, I do not want my flickr shut down due to sharing my inworld pictures on my blog (even though I highly doubt that will happen). Again, I am just being careful. Better safe than sorry.

And I will touch base on one final thing, before getting to my credits. I am struggling in my real life. I have bad days. I have good days. Little things can seem bigger than they really are, because of those bad days. So if things upset me, I will tend to back off. I’m not doing it to upset anyone. I am doing it for my own mental health. I’m going through enough in real life and sometimes stepping away from an upsetting situation, until I’m in the mental space to handle it is mandatory. I would hate to say or do something that I regret. Again, thank you for your patience at this time.
