I'm a VERY happy woman these days. I have health, happiness

and love in abundance. I don't want or need anyone asking me to

please stay. I'm done debating, arguing and getting all worked up. I

have better things to be passionate about right now. My pics have

been deleted although I couldn't get rid of my folder (no delete icon

there?) and as soon as I hit send on this post I'll be unsubbing.

Thanks again to all of you....it's been quite the adventure! :-)

Dear ,

thank you for your love note to the group, I will be posting a thank you

online too but was afraid you would have left before reading it, hence I

write to you personally.

That was most generous of you to remind us of some of the long contributing

persons that have sustained each other --and you-- for a long time. I know

there would be many more names on your list AND MINE TOO, if there was more t

ime. I am honored that you include me, but I INCLUDE YOU back. What a loving

message you left for people -- kindly reminding us that we are a community.

I hope you will come back someday. I know it can be rough online sometimes,

especially for those of us who did not have perfectly normal serene home life

in our pasts; for some of us, disruptions online stir up old anxieties, and

other old things. Not that these are what you feel, but I do know that for

most of us, we all have histories we came here with. But 'back then' is not

'now.' 'Now' is different, and our resources are greater and better. And we

have each other too.

I would like you to know that I am glad you came, glad you stayed for a long

time and sorry to know that you are going. A good soul like you has MUCH to

offer the world and also the little world, like ours of post-ops. I hope you

will come back soon.

love,

ceep G-mom
