    When One Door Shuts Another One Closes :rolleyes:
  • When faced with something I really really don't want to do, or that really scares me, I always ask myself:

    "If I do this and it goes wrong - will I die, or will nobody ever love me again?"

    The answer so far has always been 'no', and it really puts things into perspective!

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Taking responsibility is the scariest thing initially, but what you will be most proud of in the future.

    My debt is my fault and the solution is my responsibility.

  • Best advice I ever got: "Honestly, the people at Payplan will help... Just call them and see what they say..." My pal, one month ago.

    Thanks to her being so open and honest about her predicament, I was able to face my own and get the help I needed. I don't think she reads this, but she should - and if she does, THANKS!! :j
