It's so great that you've come to an awareness with this, mouse. Thank you for sharing that.

I agree in that after hearing sooooooo many stories of survival, healing and struggling, there are different ways of reaching that same goal. My way might not be your way, but it's the best for me kinda thing.

I've always kind of done things bass ackwards, ya know? In school, with math formulas the teachers would be amazed and try to understand my formulas for coming to the correct answer when they seemingly made no sense to them. Life is that way.

We have to be creative with the tools and individual understandings that we have. You've done that! Bravo!

Some latch on strong and hard to their Higher Power...very cool! Some go to their own inside resources...very cool! Some use a combination of both...very cool! The goal is healing and we all use our individual strengths, resources, beliefs and understandings to get there.

How cool is it that we can share in our journeys, learning as we go, doing our different jobs based on many things, while all sharing a goal?
