Apologies to anyone missing the intended message...
I regret that my message was misinterpreted as I would never intentionally discourage people in any way let alone with "we were/are better than you" comments. There was no intent to define present and past quitters. I have always offered praise and encouragement. Everyone on this site has a need to be here and to be heard. I certainly was not using my milestone as a mark of self adulation. Again, I apologise for the message received as there was no intent to denigrate any new subscribers to this site. Trust me, this site works extremely well as there are moments that assist and those that send out challenge and welcme a response. In future I will read and re read before I post...
For all the good you have done Lia and all the people you have helped along their difficult journey may we say a big “ Thank You “. Unfornutately the printed word can generate ambiguities and we know you are upset that you were taken the wrong way. Please keep sharing. Dobbin
