When I started the last thread, which at the time of posting here only has another 20 posts to go before reaching the maximum 1000, I struggled to find something different for the OP.
The other day I came across this quote from Emie Zola.
"We are like books. Most people only see our cover, the majority read only the introduction, many people believe our critics. Few will know our content."
It struck me how pertinent this is to us as EP's. We are at times judged by our cover, the fact that we are estranged. On occasion regardless of how much we talk about our situation, little attention is given to the detail resulting in inaccurate assumptions being made.
Some of us have experienced our critics, our EAC, being believed by others who are/were close to us and we have those who criticise us here too.
Those of us who found this thread however long ago or just recently, have found a place where our content can be known, to those who care to listen and understand. Perhaps that can also be the case for those who read but never post here, sometimes making contact through private messages or never reaching out all.
If their experience is the same as someone who is sharing, then through our words, their content can be known too.
So it's over to you, to get posting.
