Date Posted: 12:37:11 01/29/14 Wed I feel compelled to chime in here, not to berate those who might, in the past or at present, feel the inclination for to belittle the women of this organization with critiques that go far beyond the realm of 'positive critical feedback.' Many of the nasty things said on this board have hurt the women I have come to know and love as my extended family. These are women who genuinely make a difference in their communities every day as role models, and yes, we're competing for a crown, a scholarship, and a year of service and life-changing opportunities, NORMALLY afforded only to the elite and privileged of birth. It kills me every time I read the insensitive, thoughtless remarks posted by nameless, faceless, electronic entities that are nothing more than ghosts in the machine, but whose voracious appetite for the incessant harassment of individuals seeks to defile and assassinate the good character of the women to whom they refer on this board. I realize that there are those among the guilty that do not realize how hurtful reading some of these posts can be. To you, I ask politely, to please place yourself or your child on the receiving end of your commentary prior to hitting 'send.' But to those who pen the spiteful remarks in hopes of crushing someone, I must say I pity that you will never know how wonderful the Miss California and Miss America sisterhoods are. This MCO Class of 2013, as those who preceded us, are the next generation of leaders. The women that are the face of this organization are becoming the face of the world. Former titleholders hold positions of authority in every field from Medicine to Politics to High Fashion to Silicon Valley startups....truly the list goes on. I'm sorry that you feel the need to release such negativity in the form of Voy posts and if the problem persists, I recommend that you seek out professional help and advisement to begin your healing process. We are not immune to your cruel words, but the $45 million in college scholarships we earn annually certainly help make up for the ignorant remarks, as we continue to seek out higher education and you languish here at your computer. I love these girls, I am inspired by them every time we meet, and unless you want to cross paths with a silver-tongued, rhinestone-clad MCO 2013 alumna .... please restrain yourselves @ MCO Class of 2013 #standup Who run the world, mamas? <3 Respectfully submitted, Milena Grgas [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |
