how do i keep my hope alive?

I hope everyone understands what I'm trying to do.

Talia,
I might not agree, but having you here has helped TTA, so that's great~

I have no problem with disagreements. 2x4s on my thread about me, I can take, although just as an attack doesn't help with my W, I don't see how it help me, either, in a constructive way.

On someone else's thread, I really don't need to be told that "advice is terribly mis-placed" or "Your advice goes directly against what the book recommends" or "perhaps you should create your own forum".

I do apologize though. On this thread or any other, I am trying to be a better person and I should have ignored the words that basically came to shut up, get lost, or say it the way I see it. I'm here to improve and to see other POVs, including yours, whether writing or reading.
