thank you for my hearts!

I'm sure they came from in here....:grouphug:

1. Well one of them didn't... I had to look for you

and found you here. It's an apology and peace offering of sorts that I hope you will accept. I don't want to rehash details but just want you to know that I felt bad about some of my words to you in a recent thread. You were the first person on my list when I learned of this heart exchanging thingy.

I know it's a small gesture, but one I hope you will take in the manner in which it was intended. I may not agree w/you on that particular issue, but I certainly could, and should have expressed myself in a much kinder way. I would have pm'd you, but felt as if you deserved a more public apology. I hope you will accept it but if not, I understand.

Just wanted you to know that.

BTW- This looks like an interesting forum. I'm glad my search for you ended here. I'm going to have to check it out a little more! :-)

2. What a wonderful post.

This was a very mature thing to do, Crystal Clarity. It's sad, but such acts are rare.

Welcome to the group! (By the way, it probably wasn't an accident that you ended up here. O8))

:hi:

8. I see what you mean BlueIris

Thank you all SO much for the warm welcome!

I had a brief moment earlier this afternoon to look around and was very impressed. Everyone here seems to be so supportive and caring. It feels like an oasis of compassion and civility.

I think as I_Have_A_Dream pointed out earlier, it probably wasn't an accident that I came here. I've been searching for a forum of spiritually like-minded people, and I think I may have found it. Funny how these things happen when you go w/your inner guidance...

I felt compelled to apologize to northernlights and was restless and uneasy until I finally resolved to do it. Once the resolve came, the way to go about it just fell into place. I must admit I hesitated a bit before hitting the 'post message' button but once I did, the burden lifted. Whether it made me look foolish or not, I knew it was the right thing to do because she definitely deserved an apology.

Again, thank you all so much. I look forward to getting to know you kind folks a little better.

9. I just saw this....

Thank you, Crystal Clarity. Apology and peace offering accepted. I know we had a run-in...I've already forgotten the details. It can be a free-for-all out in the rest of DU and I don't always mince words myself ;)

Glad you found your way into ASAH. This is a refuge for many. Everything happens for a reason...hey, maybe the run-in was a way to lead you here :D

10. Awww.... *hugs*

Thanks for the forgiveness. I look forward to starting anew with you. :hug:

Besides, we Maine-iacs need each other now more then ever!
