It's been about a year since I joined this board. The progress I've made since then has been nothing short of amazing. I confronted the doubts I've had head on and discovered I'm not made of glass. I now have a confidence about myself that simply wasn't there before.
I still enjoy browsing this board, reading some of the personal experiences of new ones who have joined, like thebiggestlie, trying to help them down the path of self-discovery. Many of the regulars here, like Blondie, Leolaia, VM44, NN, JamesThomas, jwfacts, rebel8, jgnat, tetrasapien and so on contribute so much to this board. Thank you.
My personal life is evolving. I've made new friends. Started new relationships. I'm reaching for things I never even knew I wanted. I've been through the crucible and am better for it. The Phoenix is rising.
Carpe Diem!
