maybe seeking to understand the meeting, verses expecting them to understand you, could be a refreshing viewpoint.

You may find you have more in common than you think.

Look for the similarities, not the differences.

"It seems to me" that the association with others, in our disease, gives us strength that we can not generate alone.

When you share, temper yourself with openers, "I may be wrong but I find..." or "my experience has been" or "I don't have as much time as many people, but this is how I am feeling now"

--- then stay soft and open minded.
