people were just offering their opinions (you want to offer yours, then you have to let other people offer theirs)
I don't know how else to phrase this and maybe someone else could say it better so I am just going to say it how I know how:
you need to thicken your skin a bit how the heck could your words hurt anyone? I mean...I don't think your opinion is that earth shattering and I don't mean that in a mean way...I mean that in the way of--we all have lives and if we let someone on a message board affect our lives that much then we certainly haven't done the work we needed to do in our own lives
(someone help me out here because I am not trying to sound b*tchy but I know that it is coming across that way)
all I am trying to say is so mediation didn't go as you had planned and you are worried about money then focus on how you can make that better get a job or two
worrying about when you retire is a pipedream
I will never be able to afford to retire that is just the way it is
my grandma (in her 80s) works 2 jobs cleaning other people's houses because my grandpa had a stroke and he has staggering medical bills (and also because she can't sit still long enough to drink a cup of coffee )
you do what you must and sometimes you will find that it isn't even a chore any more
