Don't ever say the man doesn't listen to VR members. I have seen and heard several folks talking about how much they liked the new journal comments feature but wished for a way to know when they were placed on their own entries. Cancer listened and acted and now we have a like to jump right into the comments left. Thank you Sir, I for one and tickled pink.
Yep it's true, I really like people. The Human race have such amazing abilities and differences that it's something new to see every day.
I like helping people and always have even when in school I planned on being a nurse working with the mentally handicapped. Life changed my course and instead I ended up with law enforcement, helping all types of people. It was a tough but fulfilling career.
I know of one life I was directly responsible for saving, even had to break some rules to do it but it was so worth it. A man went home to his wife and kids and while I remained hidden from the press it makes me happy still to know it.
After I left work I promised myself to make it a point to say good things when possible to others. To encourage or offer compassion if needed, ideals if wanted and simply try to help others if possible.
I know it sounds stupid to want to involve myself with others like this, according to most others that know about it, I'm just asking for trouble. But I get a real kick when someone takes something I said and allows it to help them move forward or get past something blocking or bothering them. Life throws so many hurdles at us, shouldn't someone offer a leg up sometimes?

And you do it well.... hiking that leg up. o.O J/K
Person I have the most respect for. Always a ear to listen, a eye to read, a mouth to tell me what I need to hear. You are the best of the best Cat.
And from a truck drivers daughter- I think you for saving that man's life.

Yea, it was a good idea and a good new feature. Sucks that I can't have a Journal though.
