Get Off That Soap Box.....

Nicki!!!

I feel bad after re-looking at some of my posts and being somewhat critical of others....especially on Katie's thread!

For this, I'm sorry! I don't "mean" to offend or become so callously opinionated with my blunt feelings that become so emphatic at times!

I know I should "think before I speak" yet find myself NOT doing that sometimes here! A work in progress.... and need/want much more work on ME than I realize at 15 dayz sober!!!

Pls forgive me and keep me around for a bit longer, K????

Well speaking for myself I'll just say no harm, no foul Nicki. More often than not I have to refrain from saying what I'm thinking, ala open mouth, insert foot. It's much easier to be loving, tolerant, compassionate, humble, and quiet than it is to make an amends for saying something that I'll regret later on.

Amends, especially the ones made to fellows in recovery, can be very difficult to swallow.

It's all good Nicki!

thinking before speaking, or posting, is usually a good idea - you can't unsay something
Not that I've seen you be critical Nicki.

I think mostly we do a good job tho - sometimes we may get a bit het up, but I haven't seen anything in this forum recently that didn't come from a place of caring and worry for someone else's well being.

Nicki,

We're all here to learn and the fact that you can look at yourself with some perspective is a big stepd forward.

I dont know what you are talking about to be honest. If you remember my first post to you and your blaming us for drinking post. That to me was very insensitive of me and would be cause for apology. By the way..I did apologise didnt I? If not ..You know I am sorry for being an ego maniac.
I think your post are full of support and compassion. Something I didnt show you very much of in my fisrt post to you.
I see nothing you did wrong. And I know your forgiving. You are talking to me right? LOL
Keep up the fight sista!

As one of the posters on that thread, I take no offense.

Thanks for the amends.
