4.5 years ago I came onto this exact board trying to save what I was loosing but truly didn't want. What a ride it's been. I took many many many detours on my way to healing and moving on.

Today, I'm emotionally healthy. I have my self-esteem. I'm happily married to the most amazing woman on the planet. So I want to first off ThANK everyone who has touched my life and enjoyed the journey with me and I want to offer those in the midst of things hope.

There are quite a few of us "old timers" who proudly wear our "Been there Done that" shirts, please take something from our hard-won experience...... Me, being from the life of hard knocks academy, had to make many wrong choices before I listened to what many were telling me....

God Bless us all......

Hugs, Thoughts, & Prayers........

Hugs to you. You are the greatest Jester I've ever known. Keep up the good work!

[color:"blue"] Bill [/color] , I think that's neat. What is even kewler is that you did it over a span of 4 1/2 years! Not like others here, posting the same subject in every forum or answering every different subject topic, thereby accumulating 100 posts in a day.

I'm also thankful for the "voices of experience" (like yours) who continue to post here, helping the newer ones go through all the wonderfulness as we share and grow.

Bill, you won't remember me, it's been several years. However your story then and your support then was a gift to me.

It is such a joy for me to read how things have turned out for you.

Best Wishes T.
