I wish my son would have one but I think it would take a TV show to convince him.
You do matter and never forget that.

Thanks, Linda. I do know I matter, but it is nice to hear it sometimes. Hugs!!

Grand thoughts. We should always keep those we love aprised of how much they matter. I am constantly surprised how often my adult daughters tell me how important to their lives.
Know that you matter to those whom you love and love you in return. You matter to us and you are love.

Yes, we can never hear it enough. And we should all be trying to uplift the people around us too even if they don't uplift us. It is kind of like commenting on OS posts. If you are positive and uplifting it does eventually come back to you. Karma. The blade wheel of Karma.

I hear you. Why do we wait? I enjoyed your post, Kay. I want an intervention myself.

Uh...I am the oddman out.

Darling, it aint all that.

It's more like giving your abusers a forum to continue on their self serving criticism that put you in that shape to begin with.

My affair with drugs was nasty and uninformed. Being under the influence of not only outside substances but having it done in such a clean and orderly fashion with no ability to question for fear I would get admoished.

Well, okay, I'm not quite the profile, but you don't need an intervention, you only need one person to tell you what you want to hear. And trust me, it isn't "you screwed up everyone's life as well as your own and if you don't go into this program, that's it, you're dead to us."

And the sad truth is Old fashioned detox units have only a 2% rate of success. And they tell you that going in. You have absolutely nothing to look forward to.

But maybe, had I known, well, it may have worked to free me sooner.

Love you always

Your work is a cog in this wheel. You cannot crippple your fans

Ok.... I'll write more... The point was, even if she deletes what I wrote, I'm not going to leave here!
