I am just here to show support for the unselfish generosity and positivity in this thread. I have moved to another country where thanksgiving is not celebrated, but I wish everyone here on PIMD that does celebrate thanksgiving, good food, love, and a pleasant time. I am thankful for all the blessings, family and friends I have in real life, but also the good friends that I have made over the years on this game. I am very thankful for Lala, who I have spent countless hours around for nearly 6 months (tomorrow being the first day we spoke to each other). You have gone out of your way numerous times to show me appreciation in a way that I have never felt before. You’re beautiful and I love you endlessly and unconditionally. I also want to show appreciation for a few special people from the game that have been there by my side for the past 6-9 months... Marissa... jesus christ... you are about the closest person to an angel that I have ever encountered. I envy your warmth and compassion. I appreciate that you make such an effort to keep in touch and are genuinely concerned about me. You are a great listener and challenge my thinking without ever getting frustrated by my stubbornness. Your friendship over this past year means a lot. (And you liked my thundercat and lauryn hill posts which is dope af) Kara... your mom humor and advice is great and whether I always take your advice or not, your guidance and shoulder to cry on has been invaluable to me. I always learn something new from our lengthy conversations. Your willingness to share and continuously present different approaches and ways to handle situations has helped me more than you can imagine. I greatly value your friendship. Thank you for everything. (The fact that you have portal as my background is mesmerizing) Gabriela... feels like I’ve known you a lifetime... you are so driven and it’s truly admirable. To have faced the adversity you have faced in life and still be willing to take on the world is something to be respected. I appreciate your wisdom, courage, and listening ear. I also enjoy the many adventures that you take me on and all of the things you share with me... food/scenery/shopping lol. (Inviting me to your thanksgiving dinner pretty much makes you family lol) Laura... you are funny af without trying and it’s a shame we missed each other last month... that would have been cool. Sorry I couldn’t wait another month before leaving the states. You always pop up and find some kind of way to make me smile even as busy as you are. (It was amazing being able to teach you a few things you didn’t know lol) Mel... you were there for me in my darkest moments and stayed up all night to help me with that logo... I won’t forget. I’ve always felt comfortable sharing anything with you and you always check on me still. I appreciate you so much. Our lives literally could not be any more opposite of each other... yet you still find a way to make me feel like we’re not much different at all. Your unselfish, genuine concern, for my well being is appreciated. You are a true friend. (I secretly like your new haircut even though I typically protest these things) Gracie... Greek life!!!! Your incredible honesty and selflessness when helping me deal with things at all hours of the day is amazing. You are my second favorite tutor ever. (Lala being #1 of course.). Your forum posts have always made me smile/laugh and your stories are always incredibly entertaining. You seem genuinely concerned for my happiness. I appreciate that you accept me for who I am and that you don’t try to change me. You have helped me to understand a lot about people in general and you have always supported me no matter what, taking time out of your busy schedule, to simply make sure that I was ok. I’ll never forget all the times you were there for me and all of the suggestions that you made to help. Thank you. (How are the sugar gliders?) Kimani... you are amazing. You reached out to a complete stranger and offered help when it was completely the unpopular thing to do. I have no idea what your motivation was to do something so kind for me, but I won’t soon forget it. You are an inspiration for what true generosity should be like. Thank you for taking a chance on me and understanding that everyone makes mistakes. I can never repay you for the kind things you have done for me. You did it all behind the scenes and probably don’t want recognition, but you deserve it. Thank you. Thank you so much. (Thanks for holding Lala for me when I left) There are so many others that I am thankful for and I don’t want anyone to feel left out, unappreciated, or missed. It’s just the people I listed here have put in a substantial amount of effort to get to know me. I am not easy to get to know... I put up very strong and thick walls that frustrate most people. But these people, have either heard me at my highest and lowest, play trumpet and or other instruments, spent hours in conversations with me on numerous occasions, or fought long battles by my side without betraying me ever and staying in touch for months and months... and it’s long overdue that I have acknowledged my appreciation for them.
