Kicking back doing whatever puts a perma-grin on my face. I was a bit worried there for a minute and thought I'd have to sit and talk to myself. Now I'm drinking midnight coffee because lame is fun. You're welcome and again, it's good to see you. I been missing a lot of you folks out there. I'll do my best to not get zombified. But some of these people look so damn tasty...

Thank You for sharing that. I do not take compliments well but know it really meant the world to me to hear it both times you wrote it.
It is something I have worked on the whole time since I was here.
and we do grow on a person, don't we? Something about this place sets souls free IF you let it and are here for the right reasons.
I hope your Monday is going well!!
My experience here is literally nothing without the people who help create the experiences.
Spent a lot of my years feeling stepped on and pushed aside. It made me bitter for a time and I'll still keep my distance or create space if those alarm bells start ringing. But this whole experience has been a lifesaver for me. I don't take it for granted. My past dictates one slip is all it takes yet I've been slipping and sliding all over the place and haven't lost everyone. When it's quiet I naturally internalize that like I've done something wrong so when people show up it's a huge relief and I'm happy to see them. People being happy to see me and being kind with compliments and stuff is still something I struggle to process but I'm learning to get used to that as well. Just roll with it. Go with the flow. I see them, acknowledge them internally, accept them, but quickly try to change the subject... LOL!
I have become a master at this :D
Oh! Look at that orange bird flying over there :D See it? LOL
It also sounds like we have both been on a lot of the same journey here. It's good to know I am not alone in how I think.
We're all thinkers in some sort of thoughtful way.
