Ah, yes. I took the time from my divorce to find who I really was. Other than being a mother that is.
Who really am I suppose to be?
I found out that I loved life. I really liked who I had become, and also where I was going.
The world was waiting for me to throw my arms up and say, " I am here"!
I was/am happy, I was content, loved my job and everything around me, how could it get better? ( what a question huh?)
It did get better,,,the love of my life stepped in and then I realized what it was all about. I was ready to love in a way humans are meant to love.

In What The Bleep Do We Know they talk about how our brain gets hard wired to
respond to things in the same way over and over...in other words with the same emotion.\
You can break these connections by realizing that there is a pattern and purposely
reacting in a different way. I think that is part of really getting to know yourself, understanding
the ways that you react to things in life and why.

Oh, and I want to say...I Love Books, and I hope that it's not going to become the
fashion to burn them 
I do believe in Karma, we are energy creatures it's been proven, the energy you send
out into the world you own...It Will come back to you.
AND, I do Love this Forum...Thanks everyone for all of the good input!

Jolene, that is what the EFT is for. Dissolving those overpowering emotions.

some really interesting comments ,here, on how to be positive..and
overcome too much emotionalism [does that come under .."know yourself"??whether ,you are too emotional ..?I think its easier for another neutral friend to see that in you...it is true , that its best not to make a decision whilst you feel emotional ..not just in a Relationship..but for example after a Bereavement  ?
Btw,"Red" s comments ,,,one thing ,,in her list .. jumped off the page .. for me..>
..".Do not make assumptions....!!!" 
Assuming ..that you know , how people feel..
Assuming , that you know all about them .
Assuming , that you know whats best for them .
Assuming that the gossip people pass on in MD is true ?I,m sure 95 % is not!!
Assuming they want your advice[when it maybe just a sympathetic ear ,,
Assuming .you reacted to a situation,, or did something wrong[in their opinion]
..when .maybe you were just doing the best you could ..at that time??
Instead of assuming things .we should try to encourage the person . give them Hope .. that there s light at the end of the tunnel...and be a steady friend ..not a "fairweather friend "...........that leads to the invaluable network , each friend has something different to offer.......

It is not always good to 'be a sympathetic ear'. Many people just want attention and they will drag your energy down and suck your energy. So, if you are just being a sympathetic ear, that is your choice. I was in the understanding that this thread is a thread to support us in changing and enriching our lives.
By the way, do not change the title from The Believer Achievers Club. What happens is it screws up the pages.

Hmmm, not sure exactly what is going on Folks...Folks because it seems to be coming
from more than one direction... Kind of feels like some sort of Power struggle going on.
I didn't fall through the Rabbit Hole into the Chat room did I?
I think that this Thread is a good thing and something that people need, I would Hate
to see it fall apart and become defunct because of agendas being pushed...
I think getting it out in the open IS a Positive thing, if you can't do that Stop squabbling
and keep it to yourself.
And Yes, the assuming agreement is one of the ones that strikes me the most...
I Assume that we are All Adults here... But I could be wrong.

those awful books again
I think different books speak to different people, it all depends on our thinking and the author's style.
I'm getting the feeling some here have been overwhelmed by the written word. I think it's possible for us all to feel that way. There's a time for reading and a time for just getting on with what we've learned. When we need another boost of positivity it's good to pick the books up again. I don't worry if I've read a book cover to cover or not. I take from it what speaks to me at the time and go back to it at a later date. An interesting exercise to do is to pick a book up, hold it in both hands, centre yourself (close your eyes if necessary) and flick through the pages of the book for as long as you like. You may have a specific question or might just like to ask "what do I need to know now". When you're ready, open the book at whatever page you land at. It's surprising how relevant the information on that page can be. I don't think it's necessary to be an expert on a subject to practice certain aspects of it. Best to leave that to the practioners and therapists like SpiritEnergy - it's their life's purpose and they're here to advise the rest of us.

Yes, the idea of the thread is to focus on ourselves - as Budo pointed out, until we make positive personal changes and learn to love ourselves then finding happiness will always allude us. It's human nature to look outside of ourselves for happiness and to rely on those sources for continued happiness (all well and good until something goes wrong, we lose that fabulous job or our partner leaves us for some reason, suddenly we're at rock bottom because we're incapable of fully supporting ourselves emotionally). Co-dependency in a relationship is common - not surprisingly so are relationship break-ups. Interdependancy is the answer and in order to achieve this we need to be happy, independant individuals - meeting the right person will be the icing on the cake.
Did someone suggest we change the title of the thread? If so, I missed that .
