    a very personal apology to everyone

    from the bootsie to you all and to roberta and echo me

    while i have my personal opinions it is not okay to share them in a public format or to berate or belittle another member. so echome i want to say i'm very sorry for hurting your feelings and for calling you a predator. i have no proof so i shouldn't say that in a public format. and you are entitled to share here as it is a public forum as much as anyone else. and you should start as many threads as you wish.

    so please all, forgive me for encouraging any of you to think of echo in any ill light. please continue to do as you will and engage in any way you see fit to do. roberta has informed me that if i have no proof that i truly can not in any way go accusing anyone of anything. so i agree. how dare i acuse you of anything. shame on me. shame shame shame on me.

    and please forgive bootsie for her very strong and adamant opinions at times. i forget at times that this is not my community, it isn't my website, i didn't create it. i simply am a guest. i'm not the host.
    so, please again forgive me for over stepping my bounds. i shan't get upset on these waves ever ever ever again.
    i hope this will serve as a very humble apology on my part.
    my best

        It takes alot to apologize

        It takes a whole lot... so... I give you credit for that. And I truly think it will help everyone here... You had a lot of emotion with echome's thread...I am SURE, for good reason, but, as I think you came to, it probably was not the best for the community. You are a very brave woman to be able to publicly share that.. That is my failing....when I do feel strongly, and my emotions get in the way, I am not always able to come back to the table for the greater good, so... I am impressed.

        Want you to know that.

        With love,

              I'm in for an RJ day. Heck how about an RJ year?

              Oh, and Boots, and the rest of you, I just read through the whole echome thread to find out what the heck was going on here and I think all the opinions are legitimate and I am impressed at the whole discussion. The only thing missing was echome.
              Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life... And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

                BCB, We all sometimes give opinions when maybe we might have been better saying nothing, well I do anyway.

                Beatle, If I were Echome I would have kept out of it as well - he only came here for support, the same as everybody else, and look what he got. No wonder he does not dare to repost!

                Everyone needs an RJ, I want one for Christmas.

                  Thanks Boots

                  I appreciate that.

                  I hope you know that I welcome your involvement and would never try to prevent you or anyone here from voicing an opinion. Like all MWOers, you are a valued member. I am grateful for the insight, friendship and support you bring to the forum and I'm glad you're here.

                  I consider our policies to be quite liberal. I may not agree with all posts or take kindly to the flavor of certain threads, but it's really not appropriate for me to interject an opinion or interfere with the discussion. As we've seen, almost anything goes. And as I've said, I don't get involved unless a matter is raised regarding the safety, privacy, or integrity of our forum or its members.

                  Truly this forum *is* yours; I really hope you don't feel otherwise. It doesn't matter who created the site or who hosts it. That's merely technology. You and everyone else here are what makes this place special. It's what makes it our community.

                  Have fun with your dad.

                  RJ

                      this is the only comment I made regarding that thread, and it applies equally to you Boots, as it did to Echome...

                      A) At what point do we forgive people for their wrong doings?

                      B) How long does it have to be before it is 'history'?

                      This is a forum to discuss alcohol recovery. Some of it's not pretty."


                      The answers to these questions are:

                      a) the day you ask for it.
                      b)The minute it is finished
                      c) some of it's not pretty.

                      I think these things teach us all a lesson in recovery.
                      It always seems impossible until it's done....
