Star Jones Launches Blog: Positively Star

Star Jones celebrated her 47th birthday today by launching a blog, Positively Star.  I had to check it out, just to see what Star Jones could possibly have to share that is so important.  Well, go figure, it’s one of those female empowerment, love life, live in the moment, celebrate yourself blogs that makes me want to do everything opposite of what it says just to find a source of anger in these overly optimistic people.

For example, Star has dubbed Wednesday as “Wonderful Wednesday,” saying, “What is wonderful in your life?  Why are you happy?  What gives you joy?  Who makes you happy?  This is the place and time to cheer our lives and loves!”  I got my hopes up when I saw “Tell it Like it Is Thursday,” thinking there would at least be one day a week to vent and complain, but no.  She describes it as “What issues matter to you?  What can we do to be better? How can we elevate our own game?  Let’s challenge each other to take it to the next level.  Joyous Praise and Gentle Criticism…all in an effort to grow.”

Okay, it’s really not a bad thing to be positive.  It might not be my personal way of life, but I appreciate those who are genuinely happy.  But actually blocking out anything that isn’t happy and sunshine isn’t the way to go.  When Star got a few negative comments on her blog what did she do?  Admit that life isn’t always perfect?  No.  She compared those people to the KKK!  She put up a picture of a Klan member and said, “all of you anonymous stone throwers  might as well be wearing a white sheet…(and I don’t care what color your skin is under it)…because you’re a  bunch of cowards.”  So apparently Star really can’t handle criticism.  And anyone who doesn’t agree with her must in a racist group.  Be careful if you decide to comment on that blog.  You might get grouped in with the KKK.
