Albert Einstein once said, “Everyone has two choices. We’re either full of love…or full of fear.”

This could not be more true. Look around you. I bet you can determine whether someone is filled with love or fear in a matter of seconds. People who are filled with love (or at least getting there!) are optimistic, excited, helping, listening, cheering go-getters – it shows on their face, in their spirit and seems to refresh everyone they meet. Those filled with fear are paranoid, pessimistic, envious, demanding, overbearing downers – it shows on their face, in their spirit and seems to suck the life out of everyone they meet.

Which one are you?

Be honest with yourself. None of us here matter.

I think I'm pretty optimisic. I like hearing a variety of ideas and then gleaning out the ones that don't suit me. I'd like to think that we all have something good natured to give here. Lately, it HAS sucked the life of everyone.

Hey Karen- for the most part I am optimistic. But I must say- its hard to be that way all the time when you are a SAHM. Sometimes you think of the things you gave up. You wonder where you would be in your career right now if you had put your chldren in daycare as so many others do in the workplace- and seem to be getting along just fine. Sometimes it can be depressing and mondane- not because you are not a good mother- but because you have had to lose so much of yourself to be one. Financially its such a drain.

When I came to this website I was very down on myself and was second guessing my decision. But by just talking to most of you- you realize you are not alone. It makes such a difference. So just because someone puts an entry in (a legitimate one) that may seem down- this website should also be for support. I think I've been every single one of those emotions at one time or another. Mostly because being a SAHM can be so draining, and the very next minute it becomes completely rewarding- like when your kids give you a big hug - or you read how a child was abused in daycare- or you know they are not in harms way when they are out playing because they have their mom there looking our for them.

I don't know if this response makes any sense to any of you- but I want you to know that I'm there for ANY of you- (even psycho)- because EVERYONE has their bad days. I can only hope I can give someone as much support as I was given when I first got here.

LOL everyone!

Debra I think the same way because I know we can all get down for one reason or another. But it's how fast we up that counts. Those people who are fearful stay down and try to drag the rest of the through the "stuff" with them so to speak. I appreciate your thoughts.

Debra why do you insist on calling her psycho? You are no better and you wonder why this feud doesnt end. I think you want to keep it going by throwing in your little digs. Let it go and stop calling people names and maybe you want get such negative fedback.

Seems to me you're rowing in the same boat

Amy - sorry but I just don't want to have to refer to her at " the one that keeps writing negative cruel stuff, entering my name under false pretense- and just being crazy, uneducated and sick"- thats too long of a phrase- and I do think she really is psycho. This person has nothing better to do than make everyone miserable. or at least try to. And she is using my name to hurt people around here that I would NEVER say or do. And even for her I would be here- to help her through. In fact- I would probably reach out and support her more than anyone because I'm concerned for her. I really worry about her kids. And thats not being offensive- when I am miserable my mood immediate relex my children. I'm not happy- I don't want to take them out ot play. I just want to be lazy and sad. But I- like Karen says- find a way to rise above it and snap myself out of it- and if I can't - I come her and vent (not on any of you- but mostly about me or my situation or my husband and what he did or didn't do ect ect). I'm concerned because she lashes out on the ones that are just here to help and listen and be supportive. As a mother don't you try to teach your children to say- if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all? - She has personally attacked me hundreds of times- used my name to write cruel posts to all of you- and I'm telling you I would still be there for her. I'm not really sure how much more I can do. If I refer to her as "someone nice" none of you will know who I mean. I'm telling you she is even posting arguements with herself and I on here- I'm not even typing!! So if you would like to scorn me because I think she's a little psycho- we are a entitled to our opinion s yours and mine- I'm just going to keep trying to post legitimate things and be a SAHM!!

I think I am optimistic, I mean I couldn't be happier about everything that is going on around me here. Everyone is always telling me how I am glowing, and how happy I look. I love to help people the to the best of my knowledge, I mean NO I don't know everything but I do love to help. I am so happy for everyone. and I feel bad for the people that seem to only be full of hate and discontent. I mean life is not all that bad, and a lot of people do really have it a lot worse. Thank you for this topic Karen I really think it is a good one.

So Amy. How long have you been here on these boards? Where do you post most frequently? 

Name: Amy | Date: Mar 27th, 2006 9:26 PM
Karen who was even talking to you? You just prove that I am right and you two want to keep this stupid childish little feud going. SO have fun I am done , maybe you will grow up soon , but I doubt it. 

Name: Karen H. | Date: Mar 27th, 2006 9:31 PM
I'm just curious. I haven't seen you here and all of sudden you come in and bring it up and bash Debra yourself. So my question was very honest. Who are you? How long have you been posting here?
