And rae (and anyone else here I've targeted), I apologize and future-apologize for all the boot-enabling I'm guilty of.

I totally mean well, I do </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ill-join-sona-in-thanking-everyone#post-519496 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 18:20:05 +0000 rae 519496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mochi, you have taken the forum by storm and become such a figure here in a short time.

That was amazing, really and I agree with everything you said. Sorry you are having a hard time. I'm glad that being here is helping, though. I am also thankful for finding this forum which is making me feel better about myself and seeing so many kind women reaching out to each other. It's amazing really! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ill-join-sona-in-thanking-everyone#post-519062 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 04:24:29 +0000 HelenInCanada 519062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mochi, thank YOU too, luv! You've initiated some very interesting and thought-provoking posts, and I always enjoy reading your perspectives! I hope you'll stick around and "indulge" some more here (whether you decide it's more active or less) because community, friendship, and support are lifelines. Sorry to hear you were going through ups and downs, and happy to know you are generally optimistic and a blessings-counter! Cheers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ill-join-sona-in-thanking-everyone#post-518938 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 02:30:37 +0000 Angie 518938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's lovely to be appreciated, Mochi.

Thank you for writing and sharing a little bit of what's going on with you. It's a great outlet--and inlet this forum! Thank you for reminding me that we all struggle with things in life, no one is immune and counting our blessings really is the best route.You are always so generous with your kind and witty writing talent and I appreciate your unique perspective. I hope things pick up for you, but until they do, I'm selfishly glad that you have a lot of time to spend here. :)</p> <p>You are SO lucky to be going to a meet-up next month. I predict you'll experience a high that you won't come down from for days. Have a great time and tell everyone I said HI!</p> <p>. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ill-join-sona-in-thanking-everyone#post-518774 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 00:28:22 +0000 Suz 518774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What an incredibly lovely post, Mochi. And I couldn't agree with you more. You should have seen the tears streaming down my face at those birthday messages for me! I was amazed and SO touched. </p> <p>We are lucky to have YOU here, too. You bring so much fun, and curiosity, and energy to our forum. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ill-join-sona-in-thanking-everyone#post-518772 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 00:27:44 +0000 taylor 518772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are a lovely link in the YLF chain!<br /> And you expressed your thoughts beautifully:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ill-join-sona-in-thanking-everyone#post-518769 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 00:27:27 +0000 Anonymous 518769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just sort of slink around here, reading all of it and commenting occasionally </p> <p>One thing I've noticed and like immensely is the support everyone gives to each other, fashion and otherwise. Sometimes women are hard on ourselves and to each other, but there is none of that here, It is lovely </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ill-join-sona-in-thanking-everyone#post-518768 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 00:26:17 +0000 Jewell 518768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a beautifully expressed sentiment! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ill-join-sona-in-thanking-everyone#post-518764 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 00:22:33 +0000 Mochi 518764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Though I don't have the words and my usual ability to express myself is not great today. But I've been meaning to thank everyone here, thank YLF for conveniently existing for me at this point in time. It's been a time of diminished energy and activity for me, more free time but an inability to focus as well as I could be doing, and occasional dips into frustration and anxiety with some extremely moderate physical discomfort. Most of the time it's totally manageable, and all the fun and interesting learning that goes on here is a complete indulgence and icing on the cake. And other times, like today, it is really shoring me up when I'm feeling low. I tell you, I'm so impressed with the level of loveliness of the women here (ETA: let's not forget Greg and 40something guy!)....a couple of days ago I was reading all the birthday wishes to Suz...now, that's someone else's birthday, and it was ME who was getting emotional! This is such a special place. </p> <p>I am so appreciative of everyone here and their complete generosity and willingness to help with a style or personal issue. The range of strengths and talents here is amazing. </p> <p>What also pleases me, as I sort of evolve on many levels, not simply style: I am thoroughly enjoying the different perspectives everyone brings here. But just as much, I am feeling a greater appreciation for my own way of looking at the world, my own quirky perceptions and thought processes, the ways in which I bring something unique and crazy to this conversation. I love that I am starting to think more cohesively on all these topics (which in a wider sense, are often not given the respect they deserve). I like the "warmup" I get with my writing by focusing my thoughts here and producing something that occasionally makes sense and is not meandering off-topic! :)</p> <p>If it weren't for YLF at this moment in time...let's just say I'm really glad you're all here! And also, I have real perspective, and know that everything is really okay, I'm extremely fortunate, my problems are slight, and my health is really pretty good.</p> <p>Thank you again, and I eagerly await the chance to meet some of you next month! </p>
