@fox for being a loving and supporting friend. In all the years I've known you, you have been one of the best humans I can think of. Your love inspires people in ways you don't always know about. @Kenai for being an open hearted and loving human. In the years that I have know you, I have seen you give everything to people, sometimes to people who may not have deserved it, and yet you still give. @Kethlia for being such an inspiration to so many people. In the few short years (I don't think I can say short years any more, but compared to the others ) I have seen you and your kind, caring and loving heart lift people's spirits in their time of need time and time again. @hirondelle for being my air. You and I have known each other now going on about 15 years. There was a time in my life when I felt the air was being slowly sucked from my lungs and my life was growing dark. You came into my life filled my life with air again. I have seen you do this with people time and time again, always breathing your air into them for the support they need. @Redly for being courageous and honest. In the years I've known you, you have always been quite a courageous person, sharing openly your heart with people in the "fake" online world. You have shared so many things with not only myself, and not only with the people on this list, but with many of our online family. To meet you in real life when Tracy and I were in London both times and getting lost the last time, was such and honor. I remember when I met Tracy's dad. It was a bit of a shock to him. It was at the airport, and he had just given Tracy a hug and turned around, and there was this "giant" of an American looking at him with an outstretched hand introducing himself. Quite daunting for anybody to say the least. He, rightfully so, had his fears about me. I had left my wife and 2 kids in America to come be with his lovely daughter, what's to say I wasn't going to love her and leave her and break her heart. Like any good son-in-law I needed to prove my love for her and for him, and I believe in the last couple of years of his life, he did see how much I loved his daughter and saw that I wasn't a bad man, and I believe, because of that, he loved me in his way. As for my family, yes, I have alcoholism and drug addiction in my family. I personally have never felt what it was like to have an addiction, and I honestly hope that I never do, but it took me years to have even a small inkling of what it's like through talking to my family and listening to and reading the stories of some of my favorite artists talking about their struggles with alcohol and drugs. If you would like to hear my story, I'm more than happy to share it with you or even just discuss it here or wherever. Redly, thank you so much for trusting in us enough to talk about this here. I am honored that you did, and honored to have you here.

I know a couple of people that might be interested.

Watching as @The Coolest Breeze learns NL. He's funny and a nice guy.

This made me happy. Also, @The Coolest Breeze telling me that he felt NL had a spiritual feeling to it today. Thank you.

Thank you @Moonhawk. You're right, though @fox did give a reason for one of her albums.

Yeah, when I first started Japanese, it picked up a number of words quite quickly, but once I started getting into sentences, I struggled a bit. After about 4 months, I found I had to convince my brain to think in Japanese things would go a bit better. The problem then, was keeping it there. I would be ok for a bit, then I would start trying to translate what my teacher was saying and everything just slowed way way way down, because then I had to think about what I wanted to say in English, then translate bit by bit into Japanese, and then say it. LOL. That kind of makes it sound easy, but it wasn't.

I'm looking forward to read what you write brother. I hope maybe you add some poems here as well.

It is, but I still feel like I need to do something about the buttons.

@The Coolest Breeze Good luck with that this year.

Feels loving eyes on him and lays down on the top of the mound.

That's just wrong. This is even more wrong. Wisconsin is OK, but Minnesota is awesome! What makes this even more funny is that it is.

You all and your damn farts! Making me literally laugh out loud at work.

I just realized that this post only makes 350 posts. I thought I had a hell of a lot more than that.

That's cool.

I would absolutely visit each and every one of you if I could. That being said, if anybody is up for a trip to Thailand, we do have a spare room.

Just loving how everybody is adopting the phuk our of phuk.

I think everybody thinks that's a given. Like to chirp like a squirrel when the moon is full.

What I suggest is this. The person who's turn it is to suggest a books can post the title, author, isbn, (possibly a digital copy and an audio copy) of the book they want read. This gives people the option to go get get the physical book, or download the the ebook or audio book and then we all have 1 month to read/listen to it, then we have 1 week to discuss it.

He strolls into the clearing, climbing the gentle mound, and sits down at the top, looking our over his beloved Woods Ah, it's so nice to be home again he thinks to himself. A slight smile creeps across his wolfish face and he nods. My family will be home again soon.
