"DEar LC, Interesting discussion opener! Can you share anything about yourself with us? For me, I'd say keeping up one's own faith, meditation, spiritual life is vital. Shy with depth is very doable, shy and shallow can be a disaster. Pick…"

"Thank you for the response.  Yes, I understand how you feel. I have chronic illness that keeps me home a lot. Honestly, I was never shy until I became chronically ill.  I think I started getting anxious about being sick somewhere and…"

Feedback Please: Changing the World

Hello All!I am always interested in doing advocacy/volunteer work.  The problem is that I'm fairly shy.  I make plans to go to a meeting or work with an organization and then the day of or night before I get a sense of dread and anxiety.  Sometimes I push through it and sometimes I don't.  I guess this is my question:How do I make the world a better place while being shy? Are there things I can do from home?  Certain groups or types of work you would recommend?  Any ideas would be greatly…See More

"Good point Paula.  I'm not sure about the bleach.  I also think that someone can make purchases online using a paypal account.  I had one and you didn't need a credit card... just a bank account.   LC"

LC replied to Elin Hagberg's discussion 'Modesty, plainness and hair' in the group Plainness & Simplicity
"I own less clothing than the average American woman, but more than probably most quakers.  Over the past few years I have streamlined my clothing to just those things I know are flattering and easy.  It is WAY more complicated than plain…"

About Me
A vegetarian surfer who became very dillusioned with the church, but never with Jesus, only to discover Friends through a series of not so coincidental coincidents (aka God's leading). Now I'm looking for a community in the not so quaker-centric California area.
