On a SERIOUS note...
When I first cane to MH I knew I didn't know everything but I wasn't receptive to learning anything new. My feelings got hurt so easily and I really felt attacked...
I couldn't understand why these people were"picking on me!"
LOL!!
I still don't know everything... But the difference is.. Now I actually LISTEN to what I am told.. I'm learning as I go & try to help others as I can..
Because I have been here for a little while now things MAKE SENSE!!! I now KNOW why people were "picking on me."
People here care and those who have gone before us just may know what they are talking about! IMAGINE THAT! lol!
This is an open apology to you all for putting up with the brat I was!
I'm growing up guys and it feels really good to see myself changing for the better!
Their IS freedom in recovery!
I'm loving it... Even the bad days are good if that makes any sense!
XOXO,
ROSY

LMAO!!! Thank you for that IBK!!
LMFAO!!! Surely does Connie!!! Thank you so much for the laugh!
Though I don't remember any tantrums, defensiveness, or resistance....that's not saying much cause my memory is just now improving...LOL
But.....you've heard that saying, "When the student is ready....the teacher appears." So you obviously, at some point, became ready, huh?
One of my biggest "self-indicators" when I KNOW I must examine my heart is my "re-action" to certain things/comments. If I feel attacked or defensive.....I've learned it's because whatever was said to me has some TRUTH in it and I need to look at it.
Praise God today, I am learning to "act".....not re-act or over-react. Most times if something is said to me is critical.....it may hurt my heart....but if it doesn't hold any truth when I examine myself and my behaviors....I just "consider the source"....remember that I can't expect "well" behavior out of "sick" people....and that hurting people hurt people.
You are a joy to our forum......you are growing....you are learning....and you are a blessing, Rosy! I was drawn to you from the very beginning!
Now as you titled this thread: "on a serious note"....doesn't that just "chap your hide" and "dill your pickle"??? Love you Rosy~
