I believe that I have become a better person since coming on myLot. Not that I was a bad person before, lol. It's just that I have learned to open up more and to express myself more freely. Who knew that this change would occur? I used to keep myself very much to myself. Thanks to coming to myLot I see a change in myself for the better. Has myLot changed you?

I think I have too in a way. I am able to express myself a whole lot more, and get some really good advice on certain issues in return. My typing skills have improved, my English is a lot better and I have met some wonderful people on here.

Those are all positive things, maddysmommy. I am sure that the myLot experience has proved beneficial to most who are on here.

I find it easier to talk on line. The real test is to be able to open up more in person. Talking online is nowhere near the same as interacting in person. But it is a good step toward opening up.

Just keep at it, sigma, you will get there, lol. Yes, it is easier online, but you know that old saying-Practice makes perfect.

It has. It has made me open up to some different views and made me realize how many different outlooks there are on the same topic. AT PEACE WITHIN

Yes, I have to credit mylot for alot of things. I have more courage to speak out about issues. I am not afraid to speak my mind. I am normally shy when it comes to certain issues, but since I have been on here I've gotten braver. I care what people think, and at the same time I don't care what others think about me. If someone has an issue with me, then bring it on! I have had to put someone in their place already and I am not afraid to do it again if needed. I like it here and I am here to stay.

Well, good for you, Feona! I believe that is something we will all come away from myLot being thankful for. It does feel good to be able to contribute to discussions without fear of retaliation because you acquire the tools needed to respond in kind.
