    Wow, I don't know how I missed this thread. Yeah, this is my kind of attitude. Humility is awesome and so and so and such and such, but there are times when you have to go toe to toe and stand up for yourself. And yeah, getting pushed down can really cause you to reevaluate motivations and what holds you back.

    Great post! You go girl. Kick butt. And have fun, and oh, don't forget while you're fighting back that some still can't and could use a hand.

    Oh Abandoned...you so need to know me better. I think this is the first time ever in my life I have been told not to forget to help others. Usually people tell me to stop helping others. I had to laugh. It was truly funny sounding in my head as I read it. hehe But you know, no matter how much we do, it hurts me that there are still people I do not get to know, or help like I want to. In fact there are a couple of people here in town from this board that I am still trying to be closer to.

    I'm sorry that I made it sound like counsel rather than just a statement of my beliefs. I still have a bit too much jw in me I guess.

    Oh God you did not. I was laughing because I have the opposite problem. I help when I should not. lol You spoke/wrote fine.

    Decki, I was looking at your post and remembering that after a few days (really became weeks) in bed and on drugs :) I came to some conclusions that felt very life changing also. Pneumonia really did change my life. Made me look at things differently and re-evaluate. I have lots to figure out, but it is good to make that mental u turn or right turn or whatever and take a new look at your world.

    Glad you are getting better.
