hi Lisa,
i will keep my membership, however will go and research more, to calm
my ideas and approach.
although i have achieved clearance of rosacea/oc.ros. without laser,
oral anti-biotics or tto, i am almost too scared to celebrate and
smile. .

after 16 years of rosacea-torture, i am not used to this.
and neither are the arrogant fellows in my local towns who used to
find such comfort in making their stigmatic comments about me.

and so, when my ideas are seemingly ignored, i get upset like a little
child.
this is not okay, i just need to grow up some more, and get over the
need for validation. like my grlfriend said to me - "take a deep
breath. good. now.. take a few more."

there are things in common like breathing, and yet there exists a
mosaic web of beautiful paradoxical facets through the looking glass too.

all of us are so different.and that is a beautiful thing. :-)

rosacea seems to demand that each individual find a seemingly magic
and hidden path that only will reveal itself to that specific soul.

when i am able to freely share information without concern for
people's reactions, and without responding to any negative or
dismissive reactions, i look forward to saying hi to the group then.

for (imho) that is the best way - to share valuable information, and
not expect anything in return ... surely, the most valuable
information to one person is an inappropriate suggestion for at least
a few others.

such a riddle, a puzzle .. why is it so .. i have no answer, and am
comfortable with that. only just. :-)

best regards,

Jasper
