Title: The power of this board
Post by: axa on February 01, 2007, 07:41:02 AM
I have not posted much over the past few days and I just want to acknowlege how I started to loose my way when I was not on the board.

I began to fall into my old thinking. I started to think about Xn with some softness......... all I had to do was post here this morning to move away from that fantasy. 

GS post about why she got into relationships has been so significant for me I need to take that and spend real time with it.

Thank  you all. I wanted to start a thread of thanks,  I am sorry I wandered but I am back with lots of posts

In September, I sat day after day with my computer in my lap, the TV on, unable to do anything productive other than read and post on Voicelessness.  Here I felt heard for the first time in years.  Here I found friendship for the first time in years.  And here I felt affirmed and validated for the first time - maybe ever.  Here I found what I needed to build confidence - small step at a time with a few slips in between.

In September I could write a few goals but I could not envision them.  Those goals were draped in the cloth of false hope that had plagued my life.  Today I can list goals and find myself making real, concrete steps towards those goals.  The fear and anxiety that paralyzed me and had been a part of me my entire life are now reduced to fleeting shadows that flicker daily but flee when I invoke my determination, confidence and the force of true love.  All of this was empowered in me through what I heard and what I received here.  And as I have said many times, "I am deeply, deeply thankful." - GS

GS:  what a powerful encouraging testimony for all of us here right now, and, for new seekers who will be coming on board.

The board:  My deepest heartfelt thank you to one and all, with humble gratitude, and rebirthed joy.

yes the power of this board.

since I have let the N go and began working on ME, I find it difficult to read about those still stuck in N-land.

I think everyone on here is great, but I have to work on ME, and underlying reasons for why I am the way I am

Hey Axa :

This is a very good idea :  why we love this board.

I am constantly amazed that I found this board. I am no NOT computer oriented. My sister was worried about me and barely mentioned it and I followed up. I couldn't figure out how it worked and I am still a guest but that is ok. I think there is something miraculous about the people who come here and the number of people who are so kind, on a healiing journey from relationship with Ns. I have found out that I really, really like people who have been heart-broken by these weirdos. i am in very good company. This certainly helps with my shame and humiliation. Also revenge fantasies , money worries et.......

Much praise to our noble founder. This was really very noble of him. He is one of my heroes.

Love to you guys.
