Cash's Blog Recently after letting down my guard I found myself in a situation of Emotional Blackmail. The sickening thing was it came from two so called "friends". To be blunt I really did not expect to be treated that way, considering that I always was nice and respectful to the people who are hiding behind the avatars, which I will not name. I am a firm believer of what goes around comes around, so revenge is not on my agenda.
I have experienced many things in Second Life, from Scams, to racism, so this is just another thing to learn from. Its best to remember that you could also get caught up in people playing their little games and trying to twist things their own way. Truth will prevail and it always does. Shock me yes, but make an impact on my SL life, no. Petty games will always be around for those who have nothing better to do - I feel sad for you. Live and learn, you cant hurt me, you can try, but at the end of the day the person behind my avatar will not stoop to the same level.
Next time your "friend" asks you to do something, keep in mind that they might have a hidden agenda. Playing with darkness is not a game, you end up living in it. Fear is the gateway to darkness - therefore try to understand something and the message it has for you before pushing it away and running.
Take a look at the light, you may even see yourself in it.
