Hey Seasons,

Is it o.k. to respond to peoples posts...when I'm new and really don't know their full story?

Why not? Everybody else does. :P
You couldn't possibly do any worse than some of us already have. :roll:

Also some of my questions seem stupid compared to others more serious matters.

Just read some of my posts then you won't feel half so stupid. :P :? :wink:

Welcome seasons,
Everyone is new at some point and there are no stupid or unimportant questions if it matters to you.  There will almost always be someone who can relate to something you are dealing with or have questions about.  Feel free to chime in whenever you like.  You never know when something you say may strike a chord with someone else.  It is pretty difficult to keep everyone's stories straight and sometimes it comes out in bits and pieces, so don't feel like you're the only one who doesn't know all there is to know.  I live in a constant state of confusion.  :roll:

Welcome, Seasons. Feel free to join me in shoving your foot (no, leg) into your mouth on a regular basis.  In all seriousness, nobody is looking for perfection or control (most of us left those types behind!).
I screw up on a regular basis....we all do (oh, except Mudpup, he was just being coy! :lol:).  Brigid is right..there are lots of common experiences to go around, so you will no doubt find an ally (or ten!)

Hi seasons!  This board is all about finding your voice.  The only way to do that is try.  Most of the time it works well :D, sometimes it doesn't :shock:, so we learn and grow.  Questions are good.  There are some topics that come up over and over again here.  Personally, I need to read or hear some of these things a couple of hundred times before it really sinks in.  If you bring something up again, it will probably help someone here!  Or maybe several someones, including yourself.  Glad you're here.
