To everyone who supported my letter:
Thank you. Thank you for understanding, thank you for reading it. Thank you for passing it on and sharing. It was the highest read blog post I have written so far. It reached hundreds and hundreds of views within a matter of hours.
My appreciation for the support is beyond words. It is as simple as that.
Here, on my blog, I am allowed to write how I feel and what I want. But there comes a point where I share too much. Perhaps that blog was too much. I received so much positive feedback, and for every person that praised it, it seemed there was a person who disrespected me for it.
With the good, comes the bad.
I have taken down the letter. In my hopes that it might reach the person it was meant for, it reached enough women in need to make a difference. Tons and tons and tons of women. That is enough for me. He doesn't need to see it. I needed to write it.
Which is the whole point of why I write what I do. For others, but first and foremost, for myself.
Because I shared so much, people felt they could share equally.
Some people went further, though, and made rude and disrespectful comments. Now, I'm not saying that I can't take the heat. Criticism is fine when it's in a small dose, and meant for learning purposes. But what I am saying is that I went through enough when I put my heart out there, as well as experiencing it. I don't want to take anymore.

Lastly,
If you think I have "white girl problems" because I was physically abused by a man who I loved and cared about, then I pray for you. You need grace more than I do.
And if you think I'm not praising God enough through my writing or the focus is too heavily on me on my blog, well, go find some radical fundamentalist blog. Because that's not my style.

If you have something mean to say, keep it to yourself. I don't want you around here.
