And I'm NOT here to chew you out...Hi, me again. And I'm NOT here to chew you out! : D I'm here to encourage you to good works ; ) As a sister in Christ...<br /><br />LEt me get this clear though: I DO like LotR, a lot, and I do prefer Arwen by a long shot ; D I don't have a problem with people disliking Arwen or disliking Legolas though... ; ) So, just so you know, I don't think you're wrong because you like LotR<br /><br />Another thing: I thought this was a blog for your everyday life: not just LotR, if I had known it was dedicated to that, I wouldn't have opened my mouth... cuz... I don't see anything wrong with having a blog for LotR... but becasue I thought it was for your everday life and the only thing appearing on the blog was LotR, I thought you were sort of 'obsessed' : ) So sorry for the mistake. =)<br /><br />But I have seen blogs (not YOU) I've seen others where commentors and the publishers are simply mean to people who have different opinions, you know? And maybe I should have been clearer: I do NOT have a problem with people discussing this... but I think some people have gone way to far and they're not being loving! <br /><br />So far YOU have shown a GREAT DEAL of LOVE! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do do with others! Please be a shining light of love and meekness on your blog since you hold these discussions! Please don't be SO enamored with a story that if someone makes a legolas/shampoo joke you're mad... it's not worth it... is it? I don't think God would be angry with a person who makes a clean joke about Legolas... especially since he's not real...<br /><br />Ther have been so many of these Arwen/Eowyn wars, and they've spilled over to my blog, and I get caught in the middle becasue Ihave friends on both sides and I don't want to offend either! Please, can YOU be the difference in this war? Sometimes it's mean (I am NOT saying you are mean)and rude, and... please see that this is dividing sisters in Christ in some cases! Discuss it: the Arwen/Eowyn thing, and talk about LotR on your blog, but PLEASE be kind and loving about it... I'm not accusing YOU when I say this: but do you think Christ would let Himself be divided over a silly issue?<br /><br />Stand for what's right! You're the 'Lady of Light' uphold the light! Be different from all the other LotR debating blogs! Be kind and gentle! And, since you like Arwen a lot too: don't you think Arwen WOULD be gracious to Eowyn? And Eowyn would be loving to Arwen? Neither of them would get into this sort of mess... You've taken Arwen as your role modle! Now take up her courage and go do the same as she would: kind, gentle, and gracious! : D Eowyn was wrong of course, but was David any better? And he was a man after God's own heart... sometimes in condeming Eowyn, we condemn ourselves, becasue before God saves us we are no better. Christ had pity on numerous women who were just like Eowyn... shouldn't we extend the kindness?<br /><br />Now, I'm in no way condemning YOU... but you listened you acted like a real Christian SHOULD, and I'm trying to tell someone they need to wake up and be gracious like a REAL Christian should... you know what I mean? Don't you at least see that some of the Arwen/Eowyn debate is rather mean/spiteful/and hurtful? We're claiming Christ as our Lord, but sometimes we don't show it (and I include myself in that)<br /><br />And I didn't write this comment to defend myself... it's only to merely encourage you to do like the Lord would be pleased with! =) Follow Him! (and you are ; D Just uphold your Light (light the beacons) Lady of Light,<br /><br />Love, in Christ<br />Michelle<br /><br />P.S. do you understand what I mean, or am I just going bonkers?Pepper Darcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11623091022598714167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079176509219827762.post-27577475618578335592009-11-24T13:54:18.569-08:002009-11-24T13:54:18.569-08:00hi! okay, maybe I *overreacted* ; ) And if I came ...hi! okay, maybe I *overreacted* ; ) And if I came across as a jerk, I'm sorry... but I was genuinely concerned... you actually took it *well*... I've just come across so many blogs where girls go bonkers if someone likes Eowyn or if Legolas has a shampoo joke, it's like... is it really worth it all? I mean: some of these girls are sisters in Christ... and if anything is *said* (and it COULD be discussed) and it should be said in love... <br /><br />I guess I've seen so many girls have divisions over this... you almost think *all* of them are like that =)<br /><br />But if it's discussed, I think it should be stated in love, I saw comments on another blog-- girls who'd claim Christ, and they were being very spiteful and mean... I'm sure you agree... LotR isn't worth a friendship especially with a sister in Christ?<br /><br />Maybe you could make a difference and be especially kind when people might *pass* by your blog and make a random comment about Eowyn in a positive light or something ; ) You already have been generous too! : D So, that's more of an encouragement to be just as kind and loving to the rest of us morons who might make similar mistakes =)Is this something you'd like to discuss further-- bytheway, I am by no means claiming to be perfect either : ) I've got major faults =) I just felt something needed to be said to someone-- you actually listened! Which surprised me : )<br /><br />Love in Christ,<br />Michelle/IthilwenPepper Darcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11623091022598714167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079176509219827762.post-46393718171555728822009-11-24T13:29:41.431-08:002009-11-24T13:29:41.431-08:00YOU HAVE NOTHING TO BE SORRY ABOUT, LADY OF LIGHT!...YOU HAVE NOTHING TO BE SORRY ABOUT, LADY OF LIGHT!=)Maddilynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03236637643127855967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079176509219827762.post-32409937086651204562009-11-24T12:54:13.570-08:002009-11-24T12:54:13.570-08:00I LOVE your blog and I don't want you to chang...I LOVE your blog and I don't want you to change a THING!
