You've been a ray of sunshine here. You are always upbeat and have something positive to say.

Your presence here has enriched us all.

Exactly.

Well, Kevin, I know I've told you this privately, so I hope you don't mind if I say it publicly now. You have made a big, big difference here at GA. When I think of the place before you got here, and how it has evolved to where it is now ... you've been an integral part of making it happen.

So for myself, and no doubt on behalf of a lot of other folks here, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

...for what you bring to this place, and most of all, for being who you are ... which is one awesome person.

Kevin, the previous posts said what I was thinking, but far better than I could have.

I'm fairly new here (joined in February, as I recall), and I quickly became a fan of your posts. You are so upbeat and positive that you cheer me up even when I'm down.

Thank you, Kevin, for all that you do, and

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

Like CJ I'm new here too, and you have made my days better on many, many occassions!... Actually I can't remember a time when you haven't made my day better...

So here's another heartfelt

Happy Anniversary!

Thanks, sincerely,

Hi Kevin,

I don't remember when you joined. Even though I was lurking here back then, I was really more interested in reading the stories than hearing what people here had to say or getting to know anyone. In fact, it wasn't until December last year that I actually joined and only then to post my stories and continue reading those I'd become hooked on. I was never going to start a blog or try to post - I had other forums to post on, a livejournal to record my thoughts and plenty of friends to satisfy a loner like me.

I was never interested in becoming a part of the GA community. Then, one day when I'd read all the latest chapters of the stories I was interested in and was searching for something, anything, to read I decided to take a look at the blogs. None of them really caught my eye, until I noticed one by a name that caught my attention. I thought to myself, "AFriendlyFace - dear God this guy must be either a mental patient or some kind of cheery hippy". Nevertheless I took a look and after reading your entry that day I realised that you were one of the most irritating breeds of human being - an optimist.

Normally I can't stand optimists. You smile when things are tough and can always find a brighter side when things turn to shit, but then I read some of your posts and realised that you weren't just an optimist, you were a genuinely nice guy. It's because of you that I really started looking around here and ultimately decided that maybe this was a good place to escape the bitchy queens I'd encountered on other forums and maybe make a few friends.

We've never talked one-to-one yet, but in spite of that you've always had a kind word when I've been feeling down and you've always managed to put a smile on my face. Damn you You've been a breath of fresh air, a constant source of relief and you've even started to rub off on me (no smutty comments please) - I've started to look on the bright side and confront adversity with a smile rather than getting my claws out. I really hope you stick around for many years to come - this place would not be the same without you.

So, happy anniversary and I hope I get to offer the same wish next year.

Rob

PS As I said above, when I first encountered you I didn't know if you were a mental patient or a cheery hippy. I've sinced realised that you are, in fact, bonkers - but you're definitely my kind of crazy.

I just noticed that my anniversary is coming up soon, so that means you've been here just a few more weeks than I. Funny that I didn't take you for a newbie last August. You fit in right from the start.

WOW! Thanks Rob!! I am extremely touched! I'd also like to take the opportunity to tell you what a wonderful, positive difference I think you make around here too! I'm always really excited when I see one of your posts because I know I have an insightful, thought-provoking, and thoroughly enjoyable post to read. This place definitely wouldn't be the same without YOU either! You're not only a very talented writer, but also a great member, and I'm very honoured to be able to count you among my online friends

All the best and thanks again for your teriffic comment, it meant alot to me!
