"If you find yourself in a dark place, maybe you've not been buried.... maybe you've been planted again."

Analogous to the image below, it can feel like you are 'going against the grain' of the herd to do what is 'not what everybody else is doing', even if good for you. It definitely takes courage to not do what the herd is doing.

So where do you stand? Just curious.

And if you are more comfortable answering anonymously by messaging us, please do so. It is most important we have the ability to glean insights from the community, than put you on the spot in having to say publicly how you feel. :)
