I absolutely love when you drop by to chat on this blog—it’s like a virtual coffee date! I totally appreciate the time you take to engage with my content. However, to keep things fun and friendly, I do wear my moderator hat and reserve the right to approve or decline comments at my discretion. If your comments resemble one of those “don’t let this in” lists, well, sorry, but they won’t make the cut!
Comments & Discussion Guidelines
- Loving One Another – simply, be welcoming and kind to others! Interact well with each other in the comments, and focus on discussion that is both constructive and supports a community based in kindness.
- Free Speech & The Golden Rule of Sharing – I encourage freedom of speech, and you should be allowed to share your own story or experience. Please, share in a healthy way. Treat other people, and their information, with delicacy, and respect each other’s privacy. I reserve the right to remove comments that I see as unhelpful or harmful to the overall goal of this blog, which is to encourage people to share their own stories of strength and renewal.
- Zero toleration for profanity or offensive language – while my privacy policy does state this site is not specifically for an audience underneath the age of 18, any discussion that uses profanity, offensive language, racism, or anything else inappropriate for a younger audience to view will be removed. From time-to-time, this blog does deal with heavier topics, and all comments and discussions on these topics should be made with proper care.
- External content is not allowed – spam, advertisements, and self-promotion are not allowed, as well as link to other websites, and AI generated content should be used sparingly to keep discussions free of unnecessary content.
- Copyright Statement – Any material created on this blog is copyrighted by Sanctuary Story. No copying posts, reposting photos, or recreating my branding. Photos may not be saved, altered, reposted, or used commercially. I will pursue copyright claims if necessary.
Again, the goal of this blog is to create an environment based in kindness and support for people and their personal stories and experiences. I appreciate each person who reads my work and seeks to interact. Thank you for supporting this wonderful community!
