I realize that often times my behavior and comments here are not appropriate. I apologize for that. I am not perfect but I will continue to work on it and God willing become a better person.
I try to practice these principals in all my affairs and part of that is continuing to take my inventory and promptly admitting when I am wrong. Today I was wrong on here. It’s happened before. When I act like that it dilutes any other message I have on here. When that happens I am not being of maximum service to others.
Your making huge steps my friend, I know that I’m going to have to account for my flaws and character defects when I get to my step work too, one day at a time
I have been notified by members that I respect that I owe the forum an apology. They are right. Regardless of my intentions the last few days were inappropriate on my part. I apologize for my behavior. I will work on being more open to alternative means of recovery.
That’s thoughtful of you. That means you get some humble pie (not humble cake)
Putting aside my own personal views I put my friend, and our moderator in a bad spot today. I shouldn’t have done it. I just want to say that she has been absolutely fair, or whatever is better than fair, towards my behavior. Despite my bluster, I don’t think I have ever been unfairly singled out be her, @C-sun @Steve92 or @NewPerspective. I have been unconstructive in my attempts to better this forum and in turn have made it worse.
We are all works in progess…imperfectly perfect…doing our best with the resources we have at hand. It was a rough day, no lie. Your posts added to the rough day, that’s the truth.
I am hopeful we will all move forward with more introspection, empathy,understanding…
…and restraint.
I would love for the new people to be excited and wow’d in a good way by the forum and all the positives it offers. As I once was.
As a wise TS alum said, “This is a safe place for healing, support and help. Everything else is secondary and a distraction.”
And when we were wrong, promptly admitted it
