In the six short months I have been posting, my perspective has been altered. This is a good thing.
I am an introvert...and an "I'll do it myself" personality...to a fault. With this flaw comes a pervasive feeling of "I am alone"..and a false sense of never requiring help. I do not mean the type of help that one needs to paint the house, fix the washer, mow the lawn.
The validation that comes from support, reading and commenting, laughing with me, *atta girl*, an occasional Thank You...THAT stuff. I have grown and am evolving...Thank You
