    Ok WaS......this is us, the Golden Lights of Team WaS!
    Us Golden Lights will suck those stupid, bad voices into a black hole where they will be crushed into nothingness by the immense forces of the Universe.

    +You are NOT upsetting people. You help people!
    + People DO like you! (Else they wouldn't come on here!)
    +You DO deserve to be liked.....and you ARE liked!
    +You don't whine at all! Your posts are honest, descriptive, analytical, intelligent, succinct, and very interesting!
    +There's no way you are boring! This is your third thread and counting! If you were boring, you'd still be on Page One of Thread One!
    +You are not self-absorbed! You care for everyone on this thread and do a lot to help us. You worry about us all! How is that being self-absorbed?
    +Waste of time? Waste of time? NO! Noooooooooooooo! Look at how many posts each thread has had? Look at how many views! Who knows how many people you have helped! Waste of time my coal-bucket! Huh!
    (I think I just invented a new expletive! :D)


    I know we keep batting on about your 'book', but I've just had a thought. If you were to write it all down in a book for publication, might that go a long way towards forgiving yourself? Particularly if, by writing that book, you are able to reach out to hundreds of other people. Like it might be the purpose behind it all? :A

    WaS, you're not that powerful!
    But the power you do have is to tell us about what you're going through, it does not come across as "me, me, me" it comes across as a lesson from one who knows. It makes people who are going through something similar feel they are less alone, more understood. It makes those who have no knowledge of such things more compassionate. It makes all of us feel very proud of you, struggling through the carp that life has thrown at you, but always with a laugh, a fairy door, a pug and a suprise food parcel.
    Deal with things as they are, not as they should be.

    WaS,

    I think you are fab, great and wonderful. You do have power. And that is to keep going not matter how crappy things get.

    You make it a honor to know you. And I am in awe of you. And my issues pale in to significances, but you make all of us feel welcome.

    I hope that no one thinks its to sappy LOL!!! But is all true.

    Yours

    Calley
