Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Totally off subject. Sharing a positive experience and my views on small business and trying to find plant based non toxic, not over processed products is getting harder. They want us dependent on big companies with poison! I have stalked this small business skin care line for many years and wouldn’t buy because it’s very expensive. I’ve bought so many face products that don’t work and throwing away money. Finally decided to buy a couple tiny miniature samples, still high $.
Some may question spending good money on skin care. Well I never have. Never had a wrinkle until last year, never had dark under eyes till 18 months ago. Will be 57 this year and a sun worshipper over half of it. Women in my family don't wrinkle excessively until oily skin changes to dry. I firmly believe the condition of inside of our body controls the outer appearance. I’m far from vain but don’t want smokers lips & don’t smoke. Honestly the red patches are probably gut or hormones.
I ordered on 2/10 and never got email about shipping. Sent email and no response. Yesterday sent message in instagram and immediate helpful response. Talked to me like a person not a faceless customer. It arrived yesterday and had the nicest note and a chocolate treat, the way to my ❤️
Hand written note included: Darling “name” Warmest Aloha from Hawaii Hand written notes and samples are usually included in small business orders.
This is a big reason I shop small bussiness! They are hard to find get buried by the big companies. I shop on Etsy a lot. I know Etsy has gone woke and the possible child trafficking post lately. I can’t control the world. It’s possible every large business is involved in something evil! Unfortunately these small business have to use Etsy to get established then they leave Etsy.
This company is not on etsy but many are.

By the way my forever safe guard using husband is using a face cleanser that doesn’t work for me. He’s on the third bottle. It’s the only thing that has every controlled face oil. Baby steps.
Most products from Hawaii or fantastic, however, I think I’m a little bit bias!
Refresh my memory: When is the bible study (or meet)? I’m not sure how it works in Discord. Is it live call, just chatting, listening to certain people. Thanks
The Bible study on Prayer Garden is at 8pm est Thursdays. It's takes place on the voice chat section. We send out invite right before so you can just click the link or you can just click the voice chat and join.
Our brother in Christ Justin leads it. However anyone can share thoughts throughout the study. Feel free to ask any and all questions about the study or during the study. Hope to see you there
Thanks, I would have asked you but I can never remember your username. All I see is bright pink 00 and my mind goes straight to that thinking your username starts 00🤣
