Feb. 21st, 2002 02:51 amBarbra Streisand actually provided the inspiration for the new Lance icon. I was listening to Rain On My Parade and got all sniffly and 'Go Lance!'y.
Don't tell me not to live, just sit and putter.
Life's candy and the sun's a ball of butter.
Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade.
Don't tell me not to fly, I simply got to.
If someone takes a spill, it's me and not you.
Who told you you're allowed to rain on my parade?
Just. Exactly. It's his dream. And yeah, things about it worry me, but I have to be happy for my boy for getting to fly.

Feb. 21st, 2002 09:43 pmOkay, I originally posted this at TWoP:
Do you guys think that that implies that I think that people who hate Lance are screwed up? Because that's not what I was saying at all but Bari had this response:
And I don't see how she got that from what I posted.
This was my futher edit on my post:
Going to therapy? Does wonders for clearing away anger and pain. Everything is caused, whatever's happened in someone's life influences how they feel about Lance, stuff like that. Very cleansing.
I do wish that I could give him several million hugs. But I've managed to get perspective. People who hate Lance hate him because of their entire life experience. And ditto with the love. I'm good.
It was just... felt the same as have hearing people say mean things about my parents. And I've always been one to suppress my emotion before and y'all really don't need to hear my life story.
I love you guys, I love *NSYNC, and I love Lance.

You don't really mean this, do you?? Because I doubt people that don't know him personally but just tease him on message boards aren't lashing out due to a jacked-up childhood or envy. It's just snarking.
Hating a member of a boy-group, or teasing him or any of the others, is not a symptom of ANY kind of self-hate or hate for your life experience.
Good Lord...
And I don't see how she got that from what I posted.
This was my futher edit on my post:
Well, considered how screwed up my own life is, I wouldn't ever pass judgment on someone else's. Well, I'd try not to. I mean that everything that you learn and absorb informs all that you do and feel. I was trying to say that I'm accepting your feelings of Lance as valid for you and mine as valid for me. I wasn't attacking you. I can't see how you got that from my post, but I hope this edit clears it up.
For the curious...

Feb. 21st, 2002 11:40 pmI'm doing the therapy thing. I am. Bari's last post is really testing me, but I'm good. Just feels like she's condescending to me. I don't know. When you say really cruel things and pass them off as jokes...
I'm not going to let her get to me.
sigh
Maybe I am too sensitive. *shrug*
No, no such thing as 'too' anything. I'm sensitive and it's both and neither good and/nor bad.
I'm going to go to bed now.
