I think the question here is not whether I am 'ready' myself. I am at the stage where I am starting to step out of myself a bit. Trying very hard to trust as I have locked myself up pretty tightly the past few years. Where I was once a social butterfly, I am now feeling awkward and different. I am just not certain whether this dynamic is soft and kind enough for my 'issues'. I am drawn to the depth of responsibility that I see from many of you and the code of honour that many of you seem to display. Your empathy. Is my softness; my not being able to deal with the power dynamics in person right now (as per my other posting), and indicator that I won't 'fit in' here as I post? I think my slant will be the trust dynamics first. The issues may be way out there for most as well so very few people may be able to relate. I don't want to make people feel uncomfortable. That is really my concern.

Thank you so much denuserv.
