Well recently I've been seeing too many new and old faces leaving the forum, and it saddens me to hear that some people believe that they are being driven away from the forum... which is exactly the opposite of the forums stated goal: To help support people.
Nevertheless, this is a positive post . Amongst the spree of leaving posts, I felt it would be right to write a thank you post to the community.
Today is my 1-year anniversary of joining RYL, and this is my 2500th registered post (with hundreds more in fun and distractions).
RYL has massively changed my perception of the world and my everyday life. Although i found it at a time where I didn't really need it, I began to embed myself into the community and have made lots of awesome friends. It's a sad paradox that some of the nicest people in the world direct all their pent up hatred upon themselves, and that is something I hope that for at least some people I have been able to change. Being a member of RYL has allowed me to help so many people.... as well as letting other people help me. I'm far from an amazing person, but it is one of the best feeling in the world to know that you have made a difference to someone’s life: In my everyday life, I probably wouldn't be missed. But to some people on here, I know that I have been a valuable asset in helping them in some manner.
I won't bore you with a long list, and I feel the above is already long enough... I'd just like to round off by offering my deepest thanks to anyone who has ever helped and supported me over the past year... you people really have made a difference to my life, and without you guys maybe I wouldn't even be where I am right now.
Thank you, RYL
I hope others feel the same way as I do, about this excellent community

" my precious, precious child, I love you and I would never, never leave you during your times of trials and suffering. When you see only one set of footprints it was then that I carried you" you were carried out of are lifes into the next and when its my time to leave this life I know i will be carried into the next life with you.
I wish i had my world complete again.

Ah, the lovely father of my babies! Happy 1st birthday, and here's to many, many more. I love you to death and hope one day to make that puddle jump we've been talking about!
