It’s been a year. And until now as of this writing, I’ve been a target, an unwilling victim of cyberbullying. Yes it do exists.
Believe it or not, there are real people behind these cyberbullies. What I’m most disappointed about is that, they do not use their own persons to be credible enough to justify all unkind claims. They create fake accounts so they can bash all they want, no limits, no hesitations. Just pure evil words to destroy your focus, your relationships, your confidence, and create the cloud of doubts they want you to believe.
At first, i thought it was just a funny joke. Created by people who seem so engrossed of the idea that someone is so happy at the expense of their loss. Without even considering the fact that happiness is a choice. And that no person defines your individuality but yourself.
Now, it has reached to a point where I get affected not because of what they say. But of the intensity and the gravity of their actions. And the extent of how far and foul they can go.
Why are they doing such things? I do not know. Maybe they themselves do not know. Because they do not know when to stop, and just let go.
Identity theft, use of fictitious name, libel, slander, fraud and deceit. All punishable acts of crime under our laws, but of no use against a virtual entity using a fake name and personality. I do not twitch at any of their slightest comments about me, nor the person involved with me or close to me or who I care about. Because I know and I live by the truth. What I can’t fathom is the time and effort they waste just to search me up, and research on my whereabouts, create names and identities only to tell me things I knew are without any doubt, make-up stories. Pure bullsh*t.
Yes they can find me. They actually found me. And I know they will not stop finding me until I get to a point where I will choose to bend at the lowest level just to be at par with, just to reach them. I cannot. I did not. I will not. Never.
But I did not say I will not do anything. I still believe in justice. That we can fight for our legal rights. So that those simple values we learned from grade school to the highest diploma we could get, and the reputation we build all our lives will not be put to waste because of these virtual creations. I am determined, if they can find me. I can find them too.
I hope one day, one time. I get face to face with these entities. And face to face, I will forgive them and smile. Because nothing is more precious than the gift of forgiveness. I may not know why they did such things, but I will be happy to know what I can do to help them and show them kindness, that no one can ever buy nor take away from me.
I promised myself to find the truth. And by that promise. I will.
If by my lifetime, I won’t be able to do it. I know God will reveal the truth in time. And give them the lesson, they all deserve.
“Those who guard their lips preserve their lives, but those who speak rashly will come to ruin.” Proverbs 13:3
