"... I think you need to take a long hard look at yourself and be honest...you are not that amazing that everyone wants to be you. That's a figment of your imagination. I design what I like and YOU have absolutely nothing to do with it. Get over yourself."
Wow, right?! I said nothing to provoke it. There is an Etsy seller that copys a lot of my designs and a few other designers, and I mentioned on my Facebook page (and in previous blog posts) that those types of actions affect me. And that is the response I received. I would love to tell everyone who this person is, but I'm above that. I just wanted to share with you all some of the pitfalls of working hard and trying to move up and foward... there is always someone that wants to bring you down. My friend said it best, "The best revenge is to LIVE WELL!" Fantastic advice.
I hope all of you are living well.

*UPDATE* Someone thinks I am fishing for compliments. I absolutely AM NOT. I just wanted to share that hurtful comment because keeping it inside was worse. I am not asking for compliments or for anyone to take sides. - All the warm comments are from amazingly thoughtful people I have met along the way. I am very fortunate to know all of you. Thank you so much for being so kind.
