    Today I realized that I've been floating in and out of this forum for 7 years. How my life has evolved!

    Thank you, Blondie, for the level-headedness.

    Thank you Waiting for showing me; teaching me patience.

    Thank you Gretchen and Sirona for showing me "witch way" isn't scarey at all.

    Thank you atheists, agnostics, humanists, and whatever-ists for your challenging questions and probing perspectives. We SO need you. You have produced the seeds to critical thinking. Exploration. Thinking. Questioning the statis-quo.

    Thank you, TetrapodSapien, for your artful journey.

    Thank you, Littletoe. The baby toe is so needed for the balance of foot. Your integrity is awesome.

    Everyone's words here have impacted me. Have changed me. Have helped me to grow.

    Thank you everyone for teaching me about the human condition. Curiosity. Projection. Love. Finding oneself. Mistakes. Masterpieces.

    Thank you to so many of you. Your word have impacted me on so many levels.
    This forum has enlightened me. Saddened me. Susstained me. Joy-filled me. Educated me. Hoped me. 7 years of tears, bears, hugs, smugs. Freeedom at last. I have been cast.

    Growing up as a JW has impacted decades of my life. But from here on out, my life is mine.

    Welcome to me.

    Thank you. All of you.

    Your contributions have been valuable to me.

    7 years, congratulations. I can see you read much more than you post. Only 322 posts in 7 years that in itself is an accomplishment- at least it would be for me ;)
