It's true that these posts can have a great effect on others & why not? It consists of written words just like books & stories are & people acknowledge that stories & novels can affect them profoundly for good or bad. And those words aren't even written directly to us like this forum does.
Why shouldn't a smaller community of troubled, intelligent, humourous, insightful, varied people who understand better how we feel than most family members, be a strong positive force? Few of us ever plan on meeting the people who's books we read. This is far more interactive than good writers influencing us, even if we never do meet each other face-to-face. And we honestly do care for each other - we have a connection that we don't want broken.
