connectedness a huge help in the healing journey

this board is so valuable. this 24 hours a day, 7 days a week 365 days a year its here.
i am simply so grateful for this board.
its not the servers, the routers or the disk space.

this board is made up of real people,
with real and amazing stories
its the people, each and everyone of us.
regular or infrequent.
new or old.
here or in the hereafter.

i was just away on this retreat, they recommended journaling. i said i don't keep a journal.
then i realised in a way i do and its here. how ironic.

every post and reply helps. even the arguments help get our emotions out of our head.
every post helps

we ain't discussing the weather here. I personally have learnt so much from so many here.

I just wanted to thank everyone. I am really grateful.
hugs,
pete

    I remember when my husband
    I remember when my husband was first diagnosed (before I found this board) I was so afraid and didn't have anyone to talk to that knew how I felt. I wish I would have found this sooner but I am just so thankful I found you guys at all. :)

    Awwwww
    Thank you. You have contributed so much to this board and have been such an inspiration. Keep up that upbeat personality that you have and the wonderful encouragement you give to the members that have been here for a while and especially the newbies. They certainly can learn a lot from you.

    Hugs! Kim

    another day on the planet comes to an end
    I hope yours was a good one, and tomorrows is even better.

    Thanks for the kind comments, they mean alot to me. A little gratitude goes a long way,
    it may help us stay the course.

    this post was triggered by my realisation of how much I have learned on my own healing journey, so much of which I have shared, discussed and debated here over the last year. its almost been a year since I found this site and made my first post, and I was so warmly welcomed.

    hugs,
    pete
