I'd love to see something like that -- a lot of us need that sort of reminder, I think.
When I was still teaching, I'd try to end every lesson with a little check out: "Tell me three things you did well today?" And in our support group, when we're winding down, I try to have everyone list a couple of things we like about our bodies -- even if it's just the shape of our fingernails, which it sometimes is for me. Having something here, where we can both work on validating ourselves as CS suggested, and also offer up what has helped us -- wow. Wouldn't that be a great bonus for the site?
Thanks.
