new years eve our thoughts -also included on the far side

I have copied and pasted my post from the far side

hello all of my fellow travellers

my thoughts of new years eve are indifferent. i believe this is attuned to my illness.

i wish it was not the case however it is as it is for now.

so to all of you who enjoy and celebrate happy new year.

to others who feel the same as I or have other thoughts, stay safe, stay healthy and calm.

thank you each and every one of you who has come in to my world through this technology. I hate computers but I love this connection.

You have helped me in more ways than you could possibly imagine through another difficult turn in my journey.

happy safe travelling my companions ........ gigantic group hug - ggh.... i rather like that

hello @mufasa

A very good question.

The forum has had different meanings on different days in response to different posts if that makes sense.

I have found exactly that for me.

I have felt invitations to open up and express myself in a non judgemental environment.

I have felt in reading other people's struggles,suffering and pain a huge desire to give support, hold them, be there with them with my response.

I am no healer, no medical practitioner, no martyr, I am me and I am allowed to be me on here.

I can be sad, morose, angry, suffering, in pain and still be allowed to write my thoughts. I have no intention of hurting anyone I am just sharing.

this is only a small part of what both of the forums mean to me
