why would i care? i dont need rep to know i attribute something to this site, as does every other member here

My mother was bipolar and really messed with my head. (She also had been the captain of the debate team in college.) I was left feeling never good enough, smart enough, ANYTHING enough. The kind comments I have received help counteract the years of childhood "programing" that were drilled into me. To most folks, I appear confident, but deep inside I am never sure that I am doing OK. You guys are helping me heal that hurt. Thank you. - Granny

I check mine when I log in and if I'm on the site for a while I'll check it again.

I like reading the nice messages. They make me happy.

I dont recall asking if anyone if they care or not, only asked if they bother to use it or not, but thanks for your reply.

I used typewriters instead of computers most of my life--so, just navigating to proper places is a challenge 4 me! Since, we have medical probs. Feedback is important and it really, really helps! BESIDES, I BELIEVE WE ARE ALL HERE FOR A BIG PURPOSE--TO HELP EACH OTHER. Like even little things, was at the Post Office today, a guy was on his way to dump, saw I had some garbage and he took it for me, saved me 10 mile trip and I hate to go to the dump! I thanked him and on my way home, wondered how I could do better than that for him, a stranger! It really helped me out!:)

If everyone did one little thing every day, everywhere imagine how much better the world would be.

I used to give neg rep if someones post was really negative or ridiculous, I don't give it at all now because I simply can't be done with it. Negativity is to be discouraged not encouraged.
