Hello! It is very nice to meet you all!

[SCarrington Smith]

Hello! I met some of you last week when I offered some free readings. I really appreciate all the support so many of you have expressed -- I cannot tell you what your good energy meant to me, and how much more confident I feel giving readings to people who are outside my cozy circle of family and friends. This is all thanks to you, and for that I am extremely grateful. I look forward to checking in from time to time to comment on other posts and to even add something of my own. Until then, THANK YOU, and may you be blessed in everything you pursue. :-)

[I Have A Dream]

1. Welcome, SCarrington Smith!

Is there a particular name by which you'd like us to address you other than 'SCarrington Smith'? (e.g., SCS, Smitty ;), etc.) For example, some people call me IHAD, Dream, etc.

I'm so glad to see you here. My heart is happy that you're now in the fold. :hug:

:hi:

[SCarrington Smith]

5. Hi Dream!

Hmmmm....it doesn't matter, really. I never really thought of a nickname for myself, so I guess Sandra would work. :-):hug:

The smiley list is soooo cute! I love them! LOL

[I Have A Dream]

10. OK -- Sandra it is!

By the way, we have a Facebook group also, so if you're interested in being added to that private group, OGR can add you since she's your Facebook friend.

:)

Bring a covered dish. :hi:

[SCarrington Smith]

6. Nice to meet you, Ricochet!

I love your name, by the way. :-)

[Howler]

3. Hey You!!!

Welcome! I look forward to your future posts here on ASAH!:toast: :hi: :hug: :grouphug:

[SCarrington Smith]

7. Hi Howler!

I have a feeling I am going to LOVE this place...:-)

[Howler]

16. I think you will!

There are some really beautiful folks on here and YOU will fit right in.:)

[Ricochet21]

18. Howler

[SCarrington Smith]

32. LOL!

:patriot:

Birds of a feather all flock together. It's great to know I have run into a group as "crazy" as me. :-)

[Kookaburra]

4. Welcome to the family, Sandra

You're going to love it here.

[SCarrington Smith]

8. Thank you, Kookaburra!

I think you are absolutely right. The energy that has come out of this place the past week has been wonderful! :-)

[mysticalchick]

9. That is such a lovely greeting!

I started doing readings a few years for peeps on DU ASAH and it was a wonderful experience and boosted my skills a hundred fold.

No better group to practice on!

:)

[SCarrington Smith]

11. Hi Mysticalchick!

I agree completely!!! The feedback was so wonderful that I now feel totally at ease reading for people over the phone. In fact, I think that if I don't see the person, and I have no clue as to what is taking place, I can get a much more accurate reading. :-):pals:

[mysticalchick]

66. This. Yes.

I am much more confident with what I get when I know almost nothing about the situation. It's so much fun to get something and the other person is like "Yes. Totally on." makes me want to jump for joy!

One of my clients asked about finding programs that teach this kind of thing and I told her that my experience (from having taken several courses) is to just jump in an start reading. You will find the process that fits you and you're comfortable with. Mine evolved over time - especially from doing the readings here. The first time I offered (these were email readings) I think I did about 30 or so, the second time was close to 60. :) It was trial by fire but I loved it and it set me on the path to doin this professionally.

PM me if you want to chat more!

Welcome......a big hearty one.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

14. Yay, Sandra!!

Welcome!!!!

Great to see you here!

I'm not a frequent poster here, but they haven't barred the doors on me so I guess it's ok }(

So you will be most welcome to jump in as much or as little as you like



It's pretty cool to see you here, since I had such a wonderful experience meeting you on the phone recently!!!

[get the red out]

Namaste

[SCarrington Smith]

25. Namaste.

This is my first post. My friend, Onegrassroot, posted something for me last week, but this is the first time I have come into the group on my own. :-)

[kentauros]

61. Well, you've certainly started off with a bang!

Over sixty posts now ;)

You mentioned doing readings over the phone. Ever use Skype?
(I use it to talk to my girlfriend in New Zealand, for free :))

[Sanity Claws]

24. Nice to meet you here, Sandra

Hope to see you around here.

[SCarrington Smith]

27. Thank you, Sanity. :-)

I am already loving it here. :-)

29. {{{{{White Tara}}}}}

Thank you so much...you do my heart good. :-)

:hug:

[WhiteTara]

35. ...

big hug to my new sister! :hug:

You are the best! I love the way you set up your readings (it's the way I was taught, too) and your interpretations of the cards together was really for me so beautiful. Your reading seems to be exactly what is happening in my life right now and the near future seems spot on, as they say!
:hug:

Shine on Sweet Sister! Put up your shingle!

[Flying Dream Blues]

30. Welcome, SCS!

It was so great talking to you the other day. You really hit it spot on and gave me a lot to think about. It was so generous of you to offer those readings, and I'm glad you seem to have gotten a lot from them, too.

And I'm so glad you are joining us!

:hi:

:hug:

:yourock:

[SCarrington Smith]

31. Hi, Flying Dream Blues!!!

I am SO glad the reading helped! And yes, I certainly gained a lot from the past week, also. You guys totally rock. :-):loveya:

[kimmerspixelated]

[SCarrington Smith]

36. Thank you so much, Kimmerspixelated!

Your screen name rocks, by the way. :-)

[Ricochet21]

54. Watch her

[kimmerspixelated]

75. Oh, Thankee, Thankee!

[lildreamer316]

37. Welcome!!

I believe we are FB friends already..it's very good to see you here! :hug:

[SCarrington Smith]

44. It could be....

Good to see you here. :-)

[Mnemosyne]

39. "A different perspective can change your perception of reality"

I missed the reading thread, :( , but loved the first thing I read on your website, which is the subject in this post.

The sweethearts here have truly been one of the kindest blessings I have received in my life. They are pure love, :loveya: and sanity :rofl:.

The people here give hope always O8) ; and comfort when needed. :grouphug:

I have been learning to allow myself to be loved, to be able to feel lovable, from the souls here. Truly a blessing to have you here now, also. :grouphug:

Looking forward to learning more about your perspectives in the coming months. And I also look forward to 'meeting' your 'children'.:evilgrin::fistbump:

Welcome to DU, Sandra; or as Fire Walk With Me stated so profoundly above, "Wecome to this place." We do. :hi:O8) O8) O8)

[Mnemosyne]

41. Wow! I didn't put the last three angel smilies into the post I just made.

I had to type the one in this by hand - The people here give hope always O8)

I did not see, or type, the last three in the post until just as I hit post.

Cool. :)

[I Have A Dream]

42. That really *Is* cool!

:thumbsup:

[Mnemosyne]

43. My Guides are such sweeties,

and smart asses at times. :rofl:

[SCarrington Smith]

47. All guides must be related, then...

...but you gotta love them...:-)

[SCarrington Smith]

46. How did you upload the Wishadoo! Banner?

I so want it, too...it's awesome. :loveya:

[I Have A Dream]

51. Do the following...

- Click 'Options' in the top group of buttons to the right of
the DemocraticUnderground.com graphic.

- Click 'Edit your profile'.

- In the signature field, enter the following and then click
Update below it:

  
http://lh3.ggpht.com/_9ATvtk4j6y0/TMBOLeT9rBI/AAAAAAAABj8/pCRAMkPBAqk/ChooseLoveDU1.jpg

If you also want the link to the site next to it, you would
put the following on one line even though it's separated in
this post (I just realized that I need to change mine to .org
now!):

http://lh3.ggpht.com/_9ATvtk4j6y0/TMBOLeT9rBI/AAAAAAAABj8/pCRAMkPBAqk/ChooseLoveDU1.jpg
  http://www.wishadoo.org


That should do it!  Hopefully OneGrassRoot will ultimately be
able to give us a new banner with the .org URL.  I won't
bother her about it now though since she already has enough on
her very crowded plate, as I'm sure you know.

[SCarrington Smith]

58. Thank you!!!

:fistbump:

[I Have A Dream]

60. You're welcome! Happy to help anytime!

:fistbump:

[SCarrington Smith]

45. Thank you, Mnemosyne!

This is really an exceptional group. :-)

I am so sorry you missed the thread about the readings -- it was posted by onegrassroot under Crossroads Consultations and Readings. If you missed the last promotion, I am sure there will be another one at some point; I will be happy to let you know. :-)

Thank you so much for the warm welcome. :hug:

[Mnemosyne]

74. You are very welcome, Sandra.

:hug:

A quick tarot question, if you don't mind. Is this a strange or unusual 3 card draw - The Sun - Situation, Strength - Self, The Hermit - Challenges/ops? Seemed so apropos and intense to me, just wondering. :)

[onecent]

40. Welcome to DU Sandra. I'm so glad you are here and I loved

my reading...You have much to give..and you will love ASAH...I know I do.

Hugs

Thank you again for my reading and helping me to validate the block that I sensed. We have so much in common it's freaky! So glad I connected with you and I intend to put myself out there like you have in the very near future. You're inspired me. Thanks again!
