Whether we are new or have been on this board for many years and assign ourselves the title of veteran we may be able to contribute in a positive way. If one group lords it over the other that they know best and the other has to do what they say diminishes the good that they and this board do.
Assigning may be a little strong of a word.... : )
I never wanted or imagined myself being a veteran of something like this....
It just kinda happened on it's own...
To clear up any confusion that I "own" ....
I am not angry, and I am not trying to bash anyone here...
Truth is, I like Matt, and I wanna see him get through this.
I see some of myself in Matt, and I know what it took for ME to get through this intact...
Isn't that what has been suggested ? Sharing experience ??
Now, I have never been accused of being a hand holder, in fact, cryptic is my tag.... I think ???
In reading his posts, and in the spirit of what DBing entails...do what works....right ?
And I haven't personally seen that much has changed with Matt's posts for the past few months.
So would you say what he is doing is working ???
Try something different.....yep, I just did that...
Sometimes, the harshest of posts do the most good. And create the most growth...
Is there a "club" that decides ?
LOL, hardly....
Everyone here is worthy of giving and receiving posts. Most of the vets simply do not have the time or the focus to spend great amounts of time here anymore.
And that doesn't mean that a lot of the vets aren't friends outside of here. Because we are. That is the bottom line truth.
Do we decide on who to post to and who not to ???
No, not in the least. We give freely of our time, and we DO become selective about who we post to, all on our own...
"I" choose not to post to Matt often, because I feel like I read the same post, over and over from him...
And once again, in the spirit of DBing...
I give time and space, and I pray that his emotions settle, so that he can take a step forward instead of spinning his wheels in sand....
We lean toward people who we can connect with on some level.
Anywoo....
Matt, I am not against you in the least, and my WANT for you, is to stop the insanity that YOU perpetuate in your life....
