Posting

[ChrisK]

Does anyone here care how much someone posts? When, the weather is bad, I post a lot. Now, the weather is nice in the state of Illinois. I don't have a problem with the amount of posting someone else does. Anyone with a day more of sobriety I like to listen to. I try not to be disrespectful of other people. In turn, I like to get the same respect.
Love
Chris

Good Mornin Chris,

I try to post sparingly in the AA section, but that is
because I work the program from accross the hall.
In answer to your question: "Does anyone here
care how much someone posts? I can answer
only for myself......

I love reading the ESH that is shared on the boards.
I love hearing from the newcomers, the old-timers
and anyone that stops by to share what worked for
them. I love listening to people vent...... I love the
humor.... Poems and other Pearls of Wisdom..... Tips
and tools for working on my recovery..... I suppose
I love it all.....

I've been coming to EOR for a very long time and there
have been moments when there were few if any posts
to read. I made it my goal, to put something pertaining
to recovery on the boards each day. I've had days
when I made as many as 20 posts on the board......
I was then dubbed "The Queen of Cut and Paste"!

Today I try to be a little more selective with my sharing,
but there is a place for each of us here. I know at one
time there were at least 3 of us "cutting and pasting"
our hearts out. It was difficult to find any "shares from
the heart" or reaching out for "help and hope". Just
my opinion here...... I think people respond better to
personal shares, more so than the cut and paste
material I used to throw on the board.

Please feel free to post your heart out......
You already have my respect for having the courage
to ask an honest question. EOR has always prided
itself for being a warm and loving recovery site, I
pray this never changes..... Peace on the journey!

Your friend in recovery, SG

Chris,
How are you doing,
How is the weather on the other side of the river,
Cards are kicking butt for the moment,you have to watch Cincey tho they may find a way to sneek in there.

What's up my friend,
you and I met at a cite that was very open sometimes to open.
We all got very personal at a pretty deep level at times we all know about personal things about each other.
How many of you prayed for my daughter and your 's
your lost of friend?
I think it is ok to share what you need to share,
Some put a lot of hard work here as most did from sobercity.
My life has ben crazy here these last few weeks and I really miss posting and getting feed back from all my friends.
I grew to trust many by posting and response all of you were a important part of my life.
We posted about everything there it was as close to a face to face meeting you could get to.
After awhile you could get to know everyone on a personal level.
This cite is a very cool cite
It deals with sobriety and sobriety deals with life I feel free to post .
Just have had to devote some of the time I spent at sobercity to life.
I think it would be cool to post just about anything here that deals with life.
People seem very friendly here
But you know how cult's are LOL
They are friendly and brainwash you.
Peace and love my friend
I am sure if we get out of line here someone will give us a friendly reminder what sobriety is about.
Is'nt that what sobriety is about.


GO CARDS!!!!

LOL believe it or not, I'm finding it hard of late to post. I'm in a rut. I can't complain. I don't wish to remove myself away from my giving out my ESH to anyone coming into the program for the first time. I just realize, it's all up to the person coming in. Does the next person want what we have? I was beat up coming in. My EGO was in check, I was open to suggestions, 90 in 90. The people coming in here with half measures in mind won't get this.
I'm often reminded this is for the people that want it and not the people that need it. My EGO in check, I realize how I'm just a bit player in huge stage.
