Old Fashion Discussion Board:
until a new system is in place, this kinda has to do with discussions.  Please mail me your response and i will post it for you here.

Right now there is only one topic which is based on the following message about creating more of a COMMUNITY here by members here asking for help and extending support by sharing their own experience strength and hope.

p.s. i am also open to other topics being proposed too.
I would like to see this put in Discussions as a new topic, I just don't know how to enter it. Can you help?

I heard about Conscious Singles through my therapist shortly after this group began, and I've checked out your website many times since, always leaving it feeling lonely, confused, and frustrated that I
wasn't finding what I needed. Having just visited the site once again, still getting the same result, I suddenly realized what I would like to get from this community.

Most, if not all, of the forums and discussions are well written and thought out, very rational, and about how people have learned, or are in the process of learning to take care of themselves. What I'm missing, is people getting outside of themselves to allow others to connect with them. I'd like to see this group be less consciously single, and more a conscious community of connecting singles.

I'm still struggling with the best way this group might become a more conscious community of connecting singles.

What I'd like to suggest, is that, 1) members ask the community for specific help when they need it and where they need it, and 2) members reach out and offer support to those asking for help. I know I feel connected to others when they've not only quietly listened to me, but when they've also shared similar
experiences
. Sometimes I need advice, but let me ask for it! I might also want suggestions on how to do something. Someone might need help
with moving, or finding a loving home for their kitty, finding a sitter, whatever. There are lots of ways we could all help. I doubt that I'm the only one who needs to know that people care enough to
give of themselves, and the way people show they care, is through their actions. I think this also helps a group to become a real community of conscious people.

Does anyone think I'm on the right track,? Or somewhat, if not completely, off base? Perhaps I've missed seeing the connections others have successfully made. I'd love to read feedback on this.

Sincerely,
Lorrie


 

please send me your response.  ~Joel

The long awaited Discussion boards will enable the conscious cross fertilization and community building that I have dreamed about having here. These boards are still in the dream state right now, but please respond with regular messages which i will post.

This is a group of wonderful, wonderful folks and the chance for discussion and dialogue is truly exciting to me.
