    Over the past year, increased regulatory pressure in multiple regions like UK OFCOM and Australia's eSafety has led to higher operational costs, including infrastructure, security, and the need to work with more specialized service providers to keep the site online and stable.

    If you value the community and would like to help support its continued operation, donations are greatly appreciated. If you wish to donate via Bank Transfer or other options, please open a ticket.

This is my first thread here at SaSu, and started out of another thread here in the Recovery forum. The thread title is a book written in 1972 by Trina Paulus, about caterpillars struggling to find meaning and direction. I'm hoping to turn this thread into a list of literary resources for positive motivation, whatever that means to each member. Obviously, some discussion of content is required, but this website has great directions on how to hide spoilers (as demonstrated above).
When I was in my pre-teen and teen years, I was definitely a wallflower, and it took me a long time to let go of the wall.
This website, and the supportive people who share their experiences here, represent to me "hope for the flowers", whether that means the hope of a seat on the bus, or the hope of a ride away from the bus stop.
I have survived enough attempts to catch the bus to know that my experiences can help others who either never had hope, or have lost their hope.
As Forrest Gump said about shit, "It happens", but when it happens to you, it doesn't have to make your whole day, or life, stink. We have recipes here to turn shit into fertilizer: hope for the flowers.
All flowers deserve hope, and I appreciate all of you who water the flowers, drive the bus, or just spread fertilizer here.
P.S. We also have access to the Secret of the Sun!
11. Sun Light - It's been found that sun light is very important for production of vitamin D. Often the vitamin D found in cereals isn't the best form, as it's only D2. D3 is made by the sun. You can also certainly supplement D3 too. D3 is actually part hormone part vitamin, so it's very powerful. Morning sunlight is the best as it won't damage your skin as much.
