I can't believe that you two knuckleheads pulled me in here..... : )
As I read this, I was thinking back on everything that I learned from the older, heavy hitters here.
I think, for me at least, it boils down to two things from two people...
Jack once asked me if I was willing to be defined by the worst thing that I have ever gone through, because posting can consume a person. That DB is great for living a detached life, yet not so great for attaching two lives together. And in order to survive , one had to separate the two things, and define who you really are before you can step back and give accurate advice, and live a DBing life.
Secondly, AmyC told me that after time, posting held her back just as much as it ever moved her forward, and how long did I want to sit on that fence...
I do agree with you Drew......
I was pushed into who I became after bomb day.....
Not asked.....pushed...... by some incredible people
And I wouldn't trade a minute of it.
G, stepping back isn't a bad thing, as long as you aren't hiding from yourself. (which you do tend to do at times)
