I'll add something more here that I may include on a journal later. I remember in graduate school I made a comment on a theory from a man our class was going to be speaking with shortly via conference call. All my classmates jumped on me & quite loudly stated how wrong I was. When the conference call came in our professor (my favorite mentor & sly fox!) asked if we had any questions. Now that usually has me jumping but given what just happened I was not thinking so confidently in my comment. Noone said anything so my prof. said, we have a student here who thinks...and he mentioned my critical comment. All my classmates were smiling thinking I would get chewed out by the "authority of the subject". The gentleman answered it was the comment he has heard the most & he is in the process of changing this issue. Now I realized my prof new the answer to my comment & kept quiet & thought I would ask & when I didn't wanted to make sure my classmates hear this. I made sure not to smile (it was hard) and have an "I told you so attiitude" It wasn't about being right to me in the first place, I was just offering my thoughts. What did I learn from that & why have I remembered this still as a valuable lesson. Stick to your beliefs unless you know for sure otherwise. Even when many others disagree with you, it doesn't mean you are always wrong! <br><br>Thanks Nat, you managed to remind me of this today & that has helped my spirit today so much!<br><br>http://journals.aol.com/psychfun/MeThinksTooMuch/<br>Psychfun<br>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2368811144681823007.post-61678405863334879662005-08-02T18:52:00.000-07:002005-08-02T18:52:00.000-07:00Dearest Nat :)In sharing that you have learned a l...Dearest Nat :)<br><br>In sharing that you have learned a little something from all of us, helps us learn that you are so special because you are still open to learning. So many have shut themselves off to continued inner growth, including myself at times. Thank you honey for providing the list of so many amazing people, some of whom I have met through their journals such as Sam and Michael and others who I look forward to getting to know...thanks to you.

Words are very powerful tools, often misused, but forever remembered. If I can challenge your mind, touch your heart, or tickle your funny bone with my words - that's great! Your journal entries are wonderful and I've enjoyed reading them. That's the great thing about all these journals - all the amazing stories and adventures. Life is, after all, a story in process - your story. Tell it well and it will be remembered! http://journals.aol.com/wings2try/MomsLaughingGarden<br><br>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2368811144681823007.post-85807874518233894702005-08-02T21:42:00.000-07:002005-08-02T21:42:00.000-07:00Awww, thank you for including me in your list!

J-land is full of people who are going through so many different things and with each visit to a person's journal we learn something new if not about them, about yourself. This is why I love my journal and I love to read others. We are never too old to learn or to expand our outlook about life. You never know when a journal may inspire you!
