It's more than "just a forum"

  For me it's not just a forum, you all have allowed me too share my tears and my fluffy times with you and you'll never understand what that means to me. I laughed so hard when I logged on and found 6 of 9's fluff post about Thunder Rider and myself I cried just as hard when I read Tatiana's "Three sister's thread" and Mr. Moe's experience at Wal-mart made me angry/sad and so proud of her and how she is raising her daughter.

  I feel so much better more emotionally healed than I have in a long time. Knowing I have people that care enough just too post on my Birthday for me is Priceless

  Thanks for those replies...

  (...man, I'm feeling so down about the shuttle disaster...it's hard for me to reply to y'all but I'll give it a try.)

  AA has another saying, "keep on keeping on" we all grow and are inspired by each other.

  That phrase "Keep on keepin' on" is a fav of mine. And yeah, I've done the delete thing many many times too!

  If we all used to be "brothers and sisters", why can't we still be? :)

  I once read something Farkel wrote:

  ...you will find that outside of the Watchtower walls there is a brotherhood of wonderful people available to support you and comfort you.

  and I wondered, "Is this true?" Am I still part of an international brotherhood? I find the question both comforting and frightening. Comforting because, hey, Instant Friends! Frightening because, well, you know...it reminds me of That Other Place (kingdom hall).

  And, yes, I too appreciate having a place to share my tears and fluffy times, though I've probably shared more fluff than anything...

  LOL (sob) @ the pic - you have no idea how close to the truth that is

  Just a lucky guess I suppose. You're right, though. I truly have no idea what it takes to run a forum like this. I'm glad it's here.

  Thank you.
