WHY THE BEHEADING IN IRAQ?

I wish I knew. Maybe then we could make it stop. I think it's horrible that the media keeps playing the videos over and over. I can't help but feel my heart bleed for those poor families.

well there has been another one..is it ever gonna stop?

I posted an ad in the singles section of the board? I don’t want to be assumptive. I intened this to be first and foremost a GROUP.

Thanks Marina you just go ahead and post away girl, I think it's great!

Well guys I'm sure you have all notices even I wander in and out of this group. I share now part of why.

I have varying degrees of anxiety and ability to approach people without extreme stress. It may sound odd, but this not only extends to the Internet, but gets worse the closer I feel to someone. The fact that I have people regularly posting here, and that I really do care for many of you deeply, means it is hard to approach you guys. It’s a vicious cycle I live with and a bit high right now.- sorry- had to vent.

recently i learned that i have a social anxiety problem and meet every friday with some other vets that feel the same way.  it helps me to know there are other people who look perfectly normal who are weirded out by social situations.  its a little easier to believe today that there is hope for this becoming part of my past instead of my present.  hang in.

I was much like you. As I have grown in years and thought, I have realized that I have a voice and that I needed to use it if I wanted my needs met. If I wanted to be heard. I am still that quiet shy person afraid of rejection and still get my feelings hurt. I also still try to listen first but if I do not speak no one can hear me. We are all souls looking for that great oneness of being and we all need to be in community(or one with each other). I do not know if I am making myself clear. We are all interconnected at some level and therefore need each other. If you do not ask for what you need, I can not give it to you and in turn can not receive what you have to give me. We all (Me, you and the Universe) are less in some way if we do not take that first step. Yes we may be rejected, but our silence is only us rejecting ourselves first. Buying into the lie that we are some how unworthy. I have found it to be that we get rejected less if we are just open and honest with our inner truth and share that with those the creator and creation have put in our lives. Love and ((Hugs)) Thomas
