Hi all , I just wanted to pop in for a minute and this called to me.  I have not been around for over a month and really am not back yet but wanted to make sure that I thank all of our people for keeping our room open and safe ...it will be the safe place to which I will soon return.  Thank you and ...

I really liked that cactus jack

Hope you have a wonderful new year as you adjust to your new life.  We are here whenever you need to talk... stay strong. O:-)

I truly feel for the way you are being treated.  Support of the group has gotten me through a few rough days but I understand that is no help with the actual pain you are feeling.  I know that it feels unbearable but talking does help you to take the mind off it for a bit.  Speaking as a Canadian I ...

I leave the decisions regarding who is and who is not present up to the people that have control of the room.  I trust those that have been doing the job as they have been running the room for us for this long and it is the safest place I have been.  I will continue to leave the details to you and u...

All I can say is Blessed Be and Star Love for you have truly touched me.

I totally agree with your sentiment Eino.  I hope that this message reaches many and helps to put them in the Christmas mood.  Getting there myself by focusing on others.  I need to see a smile or make someone laugh, I need to talk Christ,mas and remember what it is all about.  it is not a day to ju...

Basically my definition is the same as yours and I have spent years friendless.. not including my parents and my son.  I am slowly making some good acquaintances, and a couple that I am forming friendships with.  Time is the telling factor. I am much more likely to be a friend than to have them and ...

so glad that you thought to come and vent.. we all need to remember we can vent and not be judged.  sometimes I need to vent and don't really want the feedback immediately as in the chat room, however if you need the personal touch I have found 24/7 support there.. with hugs to boot 

I can't believe her level of immaturity.  The chat has seen more than just her banned but I think you called her bluff the final time and she is infuriated by that.. the letter was her virtual foot stomp and I am relieved that you see it for what it is.  Thank you for the insightful post.. keep up t...

Courage is the key for me.. honesty comes natural, lies take too much energy to make and maintain. I still have a hard time with matching my heart and head when it comes to my personal insights.  Courage to live a life that I never adjusted my personal compass to.  Life changed drastically about 25 ...

Funny how with the way I have been feeling that this was the first thing I read after being away for so long.  I have really struggled the last few weeks and have been slipping further as insomnia has made things so much worse.  I needed these words to remind me that I am so much more than the way I...

Cooper so glad you at least were able to get the temporary placard.  I hope some therapy can help so that you don't have as much pain.  I really hope you know that people here understand and can empathize with pretty much anything you are going through...you are not alone anymore

I echo Ragman.. I am glad that it will be people and not the room.  The past week or so I have been very tired and have actually avoided the room a couple days.  I really would have liked to chat and check in with friends but lacked the energy to deal with any drama I might face.  Hopefully I won't ...

Cooper... as far as the braces go it sounds like you should see a physiotherapist to help you choose what would be right for you.  You may even want to try a medical supply store ,they were always helpful for me and ready to please customers. Doctors are usually good about signing for parking passes...
