Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.
Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.
Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.
This group is not intended to compete with other groups on topics they cover but to "fill in the cracks." Whenever a discussion dwells at length on a topic for which there's an existing group, we urge you to provide members a link to that group to continue along their tangent.
A comment is a shout-out, which will get lost in a few days, because the comment wall is just a random stack.
Please start a discussion to share stories, photos, and videos. Replies will pop up in your "latest activity" and a conversation can develop from the feelings and thoughts you contributed. Groups are built on discussions.

Comment by sk8eycat on June 22, 2012 at 1:32pm Thanks, but it's an oldie. A re-run.
(But it IS good. Reminds me of the time I messed up my my-crow-wave trying to pop some "gourmet" corn that you're supposed to be able to pop on the cob. Ridiculous!)
Gota run. I'm late proofing the Calendar for The Pet Press...shoulda finished it last night, but had a major hypoglycemia episode (my MD ordered the wrong med...too strong), scared myself, and decided to go to bed.

Comment by Natalie A Sera on June 21, 2012 at 9:50pm Ian, they look like some species of sloth to me, but I'm no authority! I was just looking at their claws and thinking that they look like claws for hanging on trees.
