Do you have a reputation? What is it, and where did it come from? Is it accurate? What do you think about it?
If we have a bad reputation, we might not exactly know about it, because human nature is so that there will be whispers behind ones back, and things will be said that our own ears might never hear. Often reputations may not even be true, regardless of whether it is a good reputation or a bad reputation.
“Just because something isn’t a lie does not mean that it isn’t deceptive. A liar knows that he is a liar, but one who speaks mere portions of truth in order to deceive is a craftsman of destruction.”
Criss Jami
Do I have a reputation? Well I don’t really know. There have been complaints about my *Hugs* on blogs sometime ago, so maybe I have a reputation of being a hugger. You know, in real life, I don’t go around hugging people as you might think. I am, in fact, very careful about the hug and will only give it when it is asked for or when I know the person really well. BTW, my little daughter says that I give the best hugs in the WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD.
Yes, I have had people who have had opinions of me through the years, but I no longer really care about what “they” think.
So the answer to the question, no I don’t have a reputation, and if I do, if its good then great but if not, well then I don’t really care .

Why in the world would people complain about *hugs*?! It just means you’re supportive and attempting to show someone you care 😀
I know, I was taken aback by the complaints, but I will continue giving them here on my blog 🙂
*Hugs*
*Hugs* 😀
I for one love hugs, and think a lot of people need them…keep doling them out!
I will keep doing so, and you’re quite right, people do need them 🙂

A grandchild’s hug is one of the best hugs too…almost like getting two hugs for the price of one…the essence of your child through the arms of their own little one. Came upon your post through the Daily Prompt. Enjoyed reading…happy hugging.
It is beautiful the way you describe a grandchild’s hug. Thank you for popping in here 🙂
*HUgs*
I agree…
Thanks Bulldog 🙂
*Hugs*
I know I love your virtual hugs Michelle and those who don’t are losing out on the kind, loving and caring person you are. I also love to give virtual hugs and those who know me, also knows it’s done with no intentions. If they think otherwise, it’s their problem.
Who cares about reputations anyways? I know I don’t. If someone likes me, good. If they don’t, toughees. 😉 In our little family we also love to hug and I am sure your little girl is right because your hugs are always given with so much love.
Love the quotes and that flower shot is stunning! Great colours and perspective. 😀 *big hugs*
Thanks so much Sonel. I think my little girl is right too 🙂 Thanks about the photo.
*Big Hugs*

Atta girl! Great take on the challenge. I’m with you. YOU know who and what you are and that’s all that matters. 😀
That’s exactly it, Tess. Thank you 🙂
😀 😀
People who complain about virtual hugs might need more hugs. That’s my unqualified opinion at least.
You post items that are right to the point, well written and of course back it up the beautiful pictures. Not a bad rep to have, I don’t think 🙂
Thank you so much for your kindness always, and thank you for being a bloggy friend.
*Hugs*
Love the picture and the color, but in my mind, it doesn’t match my impression of you.
For that, the picture would have many more layers, and much more depth.
(Every hug is the best hug in the world when it’s sincere.) 😉
Thank you El, your words are so kind, and they mean much. You are also so very right about a sincere hug.
*Hugs*
Who could complain of being hugged.. I know I wouldn’t. Sometimes in life we all need that special hug.. to make us feel better or give us the courage to cope when something tragic is happening our lives… Keep on hugging 😀
I agree with you Bren, and I will keep hugging 🙂
*Hugs*

You’re right that you can have a reputation unknown to you… and often times it is not an accurate one but instead someones ‘opinion’ of you …. Who in the world could complain about ‘virtual hugs’?… it takes all kinds…. Diane
It sure does, thanks Diane 🙂

Hug away! I think you have a great reputation. 🙂
Thanks Strawberry 🙂
*Hugs*
Who on earth could possibly complain about your bloggy hugs?
You have the right attitude – stuff ’em 🙂
Thanks Dr Ali, at first I was hurt, but now I do just then that 🙂
*Hugs*
Reputations- like publicity> good or bad> both are good. It keeps you in the fore front.
Good point, but it depends on how you’d like to be seen in the fore front 🙂
*Hugs*
True indeed.
🙂
One thing I have noticed is that it is terribly easy to earn a bad reputation, but highly difficult to earn a good one. Unfortunately, that is a reflection of the negativity of the majority, and a tendency to look for bad points rather than good ones.
You are right about that, Col.
*Hugs*
