...and I'm catching up on the forum. It's me time.
I missed you all.
I've been on and off recently, I did read but didn't participate much. I sort of was here, but wasn't either. And I realised, as I wrote a few comments this morning and smiled spontaneously realising how enriched I feel by the simple opportunity to communicate with wonderful people from the entire planet and content of all sorts we share on these pages, just how much I love - and even need - the interactive side of things on YLF.
Yes, it's great to read, to learn, I should know one can get a lot from it as it took me forever to take the plunge and register, then start commenting, *then* start posting WIWs, but ultimately it's *being* with you all through comments, questions, answers, that I feel the happiest.
It's like the endless source of all things that are beautiful, good, happy and most of all - real; the best of womanhood, and even mankind, in one single spot. I often think about simple things that I've learnt here, which I use in my everyday, off-line life. It's powerful, mostly because it's subtle.
These realisations are not new to me, but I am always surprised by how strongly I feel about the sheer privilege and my good luck to have come across this place.
I could go on... but you know what I mean, don't you?
