Deep thoughts

I am just being nostalgic about all my time being on this site. All the smiles, the laughs, the friends... Along with all the sorrow, the ambivalence, and the drama. I wouldn't trade any of my experience on here for the world.

The first thing that comes to mind is all the wonderful people I have gotten to know on here. I don't want to name names, because I am 1000% certain that I will forget some names - possibly too many names. But you are all lovely and I am grateful that I have gotten to know you. Thank you.

The happiness and the sadness... The ups and the downs. I have been through it all on here. I came close to leaving, once. I wiped out my profile. I built it up, again. I threw down friendships have been in rough spots. I tried my best to mend most of it. People have joined and people have left. Friends have deactivated their accounts and some have been banned.

For some people, this would just be something online that doesn't matter. It's all a bit of fun. This is LPSG, after all. I remember the reason why I came here and how it couldn't be any further from different than why I stay here, now. I stay here for the connections... To watch the ebb and flow of the membership.

But for me, this does matter. My experience on here has opened my eyes and my mind. So much about me has changed since I joined this site. I have become more mature and more cultured. I have accepted the fact that I am gay and have followed through with it. The amazingingly supportive community was definitely a shoulder for me to lean on when the time came for me to come out to my close friends and family.

After all that I've been through, I really can actually ask where I would be had I not joined this site? I guess we will really never know... Because this site has left its mark on me for the rest of my life.
