Warmest Wishes to My DU Family ...

[NanceGreggs]

May your every good thought wind up at the top of the Greatest Page, where it can inspire all.

May your every good intention get a million recs – and then some.

May your every noble idea be cross-posted to every website in existence, where it can encourage everyone to be equally noble and good of heart.

May your PMs be plentiful, and full of declarations of love and admiration too intensely felt to be expressed in a simple “reply”.

May you know the joy of a thousand responses, each more heartfelt than the last.

May you declare your joy at the demise of the Poverty Forum, because it is no longer relevant nor necessary – because all are taken care of.

May you be embraced by :grouphug: when you most appreciate it, and by :rofl: when you most need it.

May your every OP be read in the spirit in which it was written, absent of the between-the-lines interpretations that were never intended.

May your best posts always be remembered, and your spontaneous, anger-of-the-moment words be allowed to sink from all memory, forever and ever, amen.

May your finest moments here be bookmarked in the hearts of many. May your worst moments – wrought of anger, frustration, outrage – be relegated to the universal Ignore list – and expunged for all time.

May you never forget the value of your contribution to this community, nor the worth of your participation in the world you strive to make better every day.

May your heart never be locked, nor your dreams TS’d.

You are my family – in thought, in prayer, in dreams, and in reality.

I love you all – those who have agreed with me, and especially those with whom I have disagreed – those of you who have had the patience to open my eyes, and those who have had the openness of heart to listen to my words and find some value there.

May the best day of the past year be the worst day of the year to come.

May we find comfort in each others’ company in the days ahead, and find joy in the lasting friendships we have forged here.

Peace be with you all – and with all whose hearts you have touched with your generosity of spirit, and the kindness of your souls.

There are millions of truly good people in this world - but none as sincerely good as those who gather here each and every day.

"God bless the Master of this House, and the Mistress also - and all who dwell within your Gates, we wish you ten-times more."

32. May the trolls in your life...

...be amusing and never successful, and your threads hijacked only by lolcats.

May your rants flow freely and your anger burn bright, with kicks from a thousand :kick:

May your polls have many choices, and valid arguments posed for each. May they accumulate votes, and not just in the Other column.

38. All the best to you in the new year, Nance,

You are an inspiration. You carry the ability to express the anger and frustration I have felt so often in this past year and I treasure what you write. I am a newbie here, apparently, as I don't have enough points or whatever I need to have to recommend anything, but I am a daily visitor to this site and a daily visitor to your journal and I just want you to know that I appreciate you, I appreciate the vision of you sitting there at your keyboard as I am now, typing out your most passionate feelings. I have done that on other sites, dealing with other issues, and I think I have a real visual of the process it takes to write what you write. Thank you and happy new year.

[NanceGreggs]
