Hey...

You've helped someone now... you have pt into words my fear of the white chip... or any chip...
I cant bring myself to collect them.... I was given a 24hr chip and it scared me... like you it COULD represent failure...
I would not pick up another chip... but as i struggle talking in meetings a friend gave me a stone i call my 'talking chip'... it was given to me at 3 months.... and i guess i use it as my 3 months chip... i carry it everywhere... not to scare me into remembering i might fail but to remind me of how far i have come.....

So thankyou for my reminder.... i hope you find peace with yourself
