Dear Anonymous Internet Troll

Dear Anonymous Internet Troll:

We hope you are having a good day. No, we really mean it. 

If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be reminded of our mistakes and shortcomings. Yes, we have all made mistakes in our lives and none of us is perfect.  However, most of us have learned from the mistakes we have made and have accepted whatever shortcomings life has dealt us.

It is because of your constant reminders that we have something to strive for. Your persistent gay bashing, fat shaming, and ethnic slurring posts serve as the fuel in our pursuit to better ourselves. For that we thank you.

Our hope is that, in your perfect world, you will never know what it is like to regain the trust of your family, friends and community. We hope that you will never know what it is like to look yourself in the mirror every morning knowing you have disappointed so many just for being who you are. Finally, we hope that you are able to garner the support and friendships that we have up on top of that perch of yours.

Again, thank you and have a good day because we know the rest of us will.

Sincerely,

The rest of the human race
