This is the time of year we are to give thanks for people in our lives. Although I do not know any of you personally, I wanted to post this sincere thanks for your wisdom, time and kindness. In times of great duress and sadness, I was blessed to come here and have contact with some caring people who gave me great advice and made me feel like I mattered. I am changed. We all have power to help others but few do. Thank you to those that take your valuable time to do just that.
Lovely affirmation Toni I am grateful for this compassionate, empathic, intelligent group as well . I am pleased you have joined us and share the journey.
Happy Thanksgiving to you as well
Aloha Toni and Mahalo for the feedback. Glad you found help here and hopeful that you keep coming back to give it away to some other newbie coming up the line. MIP like my Al-Anon program is a must in my life on so many levels and God knows how grateful I am for it and also finding it like you have. Keep coming back ((((hugs))))
Ditto on gratitude and appreciation for the online support! With all my recovery people and tools I have grown up and will continue to work on peace and serenity. I am learning to leave my A alone with her illness and choices. I have found happiness just because of me and not dependent on others. Glad you found us! Lyne
Beautifully said, Toni. I have to agree. I am so thankful to have found Al-Anon and MIP this year. If people didn't keep coming back, the newbies would all be running around in a panic. It gives me great comfort to know how many people who are farther along on their journey are still there to help me on mine with their experience, strength, and hope.
Happy Thanksgiving to you as well and I am so grateful that the al-anon and MIP has touched your life and you are better for it, I am too and I thank you for this post! Sending you love and support on your journey!
