I've been a member of DU for a year now. |
|
I wanted to thank all of you for making it such a special experience.
I've shared some of the best and worst of what the past 12 months have had to offer with all of you wonderful people.
We've shared dreams, hopes and cried on each others shoulders. I've grown to love many of you in ways I would never have thought possible.
Thank you all for being YOU!
:grouphug:
In celebration I donated to DU. :)

The actual anniversary was a few days ago, I missed it.
In the past year I've realized you're one of the kindest souls on DU. :)

14. It's sure been a rollercoaster. And was a source of comfort before, |
|
during and after election. I had such high hopes. I've met some of the best people here and I've learned some harsh lessons about human nature. Here's to more ups than downs, more friends than foes, more peace than war and more love than hate. :toast:

17. The elections are what caused me to join DU. |
|
I was so glad I did. I sought out the lounge after the elections and found warm arms hold me and people to cry with.
Far more ups than downs, I agree, DU has been a positive force in my life. :toast:

Writer of one of the funniest threads - and a true story written in real time to boot - I've ever read, that was the start of a beautiful friendship!
You are wonderful part of the DU family - I am so glad you are here!

41. I joined about a year ago (just before our so called "election")... |
|
...and I have come to appreciate this board as a genuine community of families.
With all the assaults on our psyches, intellects, and senses by all manner of media -- it's invaluable to find a place where, although you rightly feel compelled to explain your point, you don't feel compelled to explain your life.
I love this board.
