Okay ladies, you will find this interesting.

I have been researching all the statistics for my site lately and have come up wiht some amazing facts. I have gone over them with my web queen who assures me they are truthful. The numbers made me say, "Yeah right!", but she says, "Yes, accurate!"....

I often have friends tell me they visit these forums and get so carried away they never get around to posting.

I also know women who are afraid to post because what if they spout off and later think they shouldn't have been so opinionated..

Others have said they don't have time to post, but will still read for an hour...

Some think they have to write THE perfect essay as though it will be graded with a red pen at the end of each day.

FYI: The month of August, 8,177 people at least clicked on the forum button. Now whether they lurked or immediately left I don't know.

So far this month, 8,160 people have at least clicked on the forum button.

I find this amazing, but my web queen reminds me that I must remember this is a world wide thing going here.

Anyway, I just wanted all the wonderful women in here to know that whatever we are saying, people are finding it very interesting.

I am hopeful that lives have been touched by all of us sharing ourselves in here.

So please keep up the good work and know that something you share may very well be exactly what another women needs to hear.

Thanks for taking the risk of opening yourself to the beauty of new friendships and growth.

Blessings on us!

Dotsie, the forums are EXCELLENT! I'm not surprised, but I'm extremely glad this site is doing so well. We have a wonderful bunch of women, and in truth, we are a special generation, pioneers of a sort, and your instincts are correct -- we do not, in fact, have the opportunity to share these things in very many places. Kudos, my dear! You got a great thing started, and I thank you for that!
Hugs & Blessings,
Lil
