I guess this is bothering me to some extent. I have read enough on here now to get how this works. I get it! I get it, that one guy runs the show! One guy decides the overall direction and intention of this place. One guy decides the overall principle to how he believes this forum should be used to facilitate healing.

Okay so I get that! And I am definitely not here to fight against that perception - it is what it is and I get it! However, I am a fighter in life always have been and always will be - I challenge. Ain't nothing wrong with that - challenges should be met with grace and an open mind in order to determine what the actual outcome of that challenge could be? A challenge should be a learned experience. Much like this post has been for me - the very premise of it challenged me and I decided to take that on. I was honest about where I was coming from and then I could see how I could grow from that if at all?

I guess I am just concerned that people will be concerned about posting their thoughts and ideas in case they are not constructive. Not everyone can write in that way - so are they dismissed? And if they are will this place not just end up with clones of one person? Don't we need the mix of different styles to find our own way? Don't they say that spice is the variety of life? Don't we need a little of that; people who push and challenge in order to promote more growth - can't we hold a hand if someone really needs it and then advise them later on when they are ready?

I want to hold peoples hands - I want to offer what little comfort I can. I want to offer more than just tough love and I want to do it on here!
