To the Anonymous Troll
Whoever you are leaving aggressive and inappropriate comments on my post about the wedding, and my gratitude for my amazing, supportive, joyful, rich community, you are hereby let know that I will not put up with your attacks on those who have supported me with love, grace, and courage over many many years. I love and honor them more than I fear you and your cruel spirit, and I am not afraid to say so publicly and ad proudly. Your comments have been deleted, and the setting on the entry has been changed so that you cannot leave anymore poison for those I love. Anonymous commenting on this post is also disabled.
Further, I wish you to know that I have learned more about communication, love through times of strife, joy, and deep, loving honesty from my poly friends than I have from many of the monogamous couples I have known in my life. To attack those people's commitments to each other, in whatever forms they make them, is not only cowardly, given that you daren't put your name to your comments, but also to implicitly attack my life choices--the very choices that have led me to a place of deep contentment, fulfillment, and meaning. That you would choose to do this ON THE DAY OF MY WEDDING proves only your own petty insecurities, and absolutely nothing at all about the life I live, the choices I make, or the choices those around me make.
I am sorry for you, whoever you are, that you cannot honor joy wherever you see it but feel the need to try and ruin it. I realize I may be giving you exactly what you want by writing this post, but I could not, in good conscious to those who have done so much for me, do anything less than give them my full-throated support and affirm to them that I will defend them and their loves.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have my own joy to make, my own love to affirm, and a wedding to have. I hope you have a wonderful day, as I know I will.
