In the last few months I'm found myself spending more time on this site and I began to ponder why. Was it as a reaction to, a symptom of withdrawal from my week spent fully enfemme and now having to make do with a few hours a week dressed but always confined to the house?
I suspect that plays a part but I'm more drawn to the idea it's because so many who put their thoughts here do so with such eloquence. Emotions are made real. Expressions of joy brought on by sometimes seemingly minor successes that have huge significance for that individual vividly transferred to the page. Messages of support freely given, thanks warmly offered, it's all here. To put it another way, it's a dam good read.
Sharing in other's success reminds me of my past. Where I once was. I'm also encouraged by those who've journeyed further than me leaving me inspired to get out there and "Fulfill my destiny".
There are folks on here that I've not yet met and may never have the opportunity to do so but I feel I know them just as if they were life long pen pals. Though their writings you get to know their personalities. We share each others ups and downs, sometimes literary swords are crossed but that's part of the toing and froing of this forum. Personalities exposed, souls laid bare. Opinions challenged.
And if I'm honest, there are times when I read a post of someone who's made that significant step forward who I may have advised in the past, I get a good feeling. Knowing just what that step involved inspires me to keep writing and sharing my experiences. I'm ever grateful to those who've supported me and look upon it as my duty to reciprocate.
So, what is it you come here for? What's the main thing(s) you get from coming here?
