life was so desperate
when I first got on here
I had nothing to lose
and everything to fear

it was so hard
to open up inside
I typed on and on
sharing everything I would normally hide

I thought that I would be called names
and told I just wanted attention
that was my biggest trigger
and was not my intention

but no one called me names
and people really heard me
and I found so many special people
that actually understood me

It was scary and it was new
but I would do it all over again
and I will be there for you

to listen and to understand
the things that your sure no one will
to find common ground
to make it up that hill

you don't have to go at it alone
no, we will be there
you don't have to go at it alone
please know that I care

Dan,

Thank you, so much for this post. Being new to this group I have felt all that you have just written about, I still do. I so much want to belong in yet feel like an outsider everywhere.
I feel as if I offend people way too easy not meaning to of course, just have no skills and how to talk to people.

I have no skills either, talking to people. your not alone.

Thanks Dan for a really nice message to everyone.

I think you might underestimate your skills and value to all of us at PC.
You are one of the good guys, for sure
