I'v had a roller-coaster year.
At the beginning of 2011 I hurt people I love.
They helped me back.
I managed to help the occasional person in the occasional post, and I managed to find new friends and people who I respect just popped out of the woodwork.
I really really cannot even contemplate the love that most of us share.
I am so sorry for those who cannot find that link to fit in as their unique selves and enjoy the fact of being here.
We are human. We are so fragile, we hide behind layers or protection, scared to even say, I love you. In case we are seen as some pervert.
What is perverted in telling people you love them?
What is wrong in saying I respect your belief, religion, race etc. but I disagree and what to have it explained to me , so I can understand you, respect you and love you.
What is wrong in accepting someone first and disagreeing after, but with a friendly attitude?
What is wrong in
not posting stupid confrontational posts.
What is wrong in saying Hi! and sending a pm. I get heaps and I send heaps, I send then because I know my friends will like them, and I love and respect and am concerned about them. For some silly reason they like me as well.
Uh DUUD, it is called friendship.
So many of us complain about being alone.
I was so isolated but I made some friends here, and it allowed me to go out and meet people. Why? Because for the first time in my sorry life I had friends who could help me. I was not alone. I could go out and tell my friends here, of my adventure. Goddess most seem so small, but at the time they were earthquakes.
You know something? It really helps.
It really helps when a girl or guy go out for their first shopping thingy. It is terrifying; for them. It is nothing when you have done it a few times. Why not tell people your adventure, your experience, good and bad. I helps. You have no idea how much it helps.
There was a thread recently talking about the site no longer being friendly. I locked and posted on it.
Tomorrow is 2012. It is a New Year. The slate is clean.
This is your site.
It is as good or a s bad as you make it.
You have an owner of the site who has sacrificed a lot to keep it going.
You have Admins who do long jobs and then come here.
You have global mods who are career professionasl but still spend hours trying to keep you going.
You have Mods who do the same. You have News staff.
You have people who care.
Oh that sounds cute.
Let's make 2012 the care for each other year.Goddess bless to you all.
Take care and I do not need or want any acknowledgements for being me. Even though it makes me love you all even more.
Happy New Year for 2012

Oh BTW It's my birthday on Jan 1, so I give you all a public holiday to celebrate
