      I think it’s important for people to be aware that sharing your story with millions of people is an intense experience and, of course, the subjects read all the comments. Yes, the 3000th message of support has an impact. As does the 100th rude remark.

          Because of a HONY comment that I made HUNDREDS of people reached out to me to say that they re-evaluated their judgmental attitudes. It’s worth it to speak peace.

          The comments are everything. Sometimes they add so much to the story posted by Brandon, and have a real impact. HONY is a great community.

          I remember a mother and daughter post that you took down. Very sad to imagine what they must have felt, reading the comment section. It’s never OK to judge and leave mean comments. Real people with real feelings read them. Not computers.

          Before 45 I never saw negative comment on HONY! It saddens me that I see them now.

          I’ve always loved reading the stories you share and seeing the subsequent comments from the people featured whom which have found their posts.

          The responses to the rude remarks, I'd hope, weigh just as much if not more...

          Sometimes it’s not rude, it’s the truth. About 20 years ago 2 wise work colleagues I respected deeply - gave me some feedback that at the time stung but within a year it transformed my life. It’s not only the good comments that help us, sometimes the rude truthful 1 helps more.
