I am sorry that I missed the start of this thread Fire... but you do sound a little more 'up'... Ours can be a very difficult journey.. society expect so much from us.. and it , many times, is not what we want of expect for ourselves.

It is old, and well worn, but there is a saying that applies to us, as a group, more than to most others. 'To thine own self be true'.. and it certainly does apply.

Take care.. I wish only the best for you. and even though we may be unable to be there in person , we are with you in spirit

Thanks Mickie, I am a lot more upbeat, just gotta stop focusing on the negative. The road before me is definitely the one least traveled and is filled with many ups and downs and riddled with obstacles. I hope what I have shared may help others contemplating going down the path. It is not easy, but with such a supportive community, does make the journey better.
