thanks Boops!!

something else that i'm going to throw out is the temptation to give advice when advice hasn't been asked for. i've been guilty of it and have worked really hard to curb that within myself.

it hurts a person if they are doing their best at posting and being supportive and someone comes along and tells them to do it "differently, better, my way", etc.

this isn't really a teaching site. it's a support forum.........

and the way that i've found that i learn best is by listening, reading and trying to help someone who has asked for help. i am so grateful for all that has been given to me here........i think the 12th step in the AA/Al-Anon program says that we're at our best when we are helping someone else.
