Well stated Mandy. This forum is the best for the very reason you stated.
Low key- and to the point, the point of learning, through conversation, through exchange of ideals, the continued pursuit of B&B and soapmaking crafts. We have all been to the sites where drama was as much a part of the forum, as actual talk about soapmaking was, or more so, even. We are all adults. Some other forums seem to be sort of sophormoric individuals in their thinking, but at THE SMF, we are above that! We want a strong, friendly, energetic, and most importantly, a positive place where can learn, develop and grow. I have made mistakes in the past, but, hopefully, I have learned from them, and act and talk in a positive way, growing each and every day. This is a "home" for us, and a home will not stand if divided. This is why I (we) are so adamit about keeping peace in our "house!" We want all to feel welcome, feel secure, where you can freely learn and help each other. Anything less, this is not the right forum for you; period!
Thank you Mandy for our "Mission Statement" as it is so true!
Thank you, everyone, for reading my thoughts, as they are from the heart.

A soapmaker.
Me too!! I like feeling "safe" here on The Forum! Hopefully, I've contributed to the good vibes here.
