I Joined Th Exactly One Year Ago
Hi Everyone!!
It's been exactly one year!! I joined TH on January 11th, 2003.
Has anything positive happened to you - this past year? I sure hope so. But if not - that's ok. There are times when nothing seems to be happening. It's almost like time stands still and you're getting no where. Life is like that. Perhaps last year was a bad year. And if that's true - I'm sorry. I really am. But that's behind you now. You must let go of the past - and move on. [because that's all you CAN do] But one thing is for sure - if you have been a TH member - even for a little while - you HAVE grown and you ARE moving in the right direction. Life is all about taking baby-steps. And sometimes - those baby steps are SO SMALL that it's easy to convince yourself that you're not taking any steps at all. But you are. So just hang on. Before you know it - you will get to where you're going. [even IF you're not yet sure where that is]
I'll end this message with a little bit of advice. I think I've said it here before - but I'll say it again. [because I think it's very important]
Never EVER pretend to be stupid!!
I know that may sound silly - to some of you - but it really frustrates me whenever I see someone - anyone - 'play dumb'. There is nothing 'sexy' OR 'cool' about stupid. So hold your head up HIGH and NEVER try to win the favour of friends by pretending to be something that you are NOT. [and no one here at TH is stupid]
GREAT BIG HUG
Craig!!

*Gives Craig a huge hug* what would we do without you Craig?
TJ[10:13 PM]: no not really..... it's all so.... like wow..... screw steps, you took a fuckin jet pack and strapped it on yourself and rocketed your way forward (thats my big bro)
And I'm going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change
And today won't mean a thing
I'm a bitch, I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
When you hurt, when you suffer
I'm your angel undercover
I've been numb, I'm revived
Can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it any other way

Re: I Joined Th Exactly One Year Ago
Probably the same as we do now.
To feel the wind tearing at my clothes, the elements.
The only truth left in a world of lies and hypocrisy.
The beauty of the abyss.
The anticipation, like anticipating the greatest sex, an existential foreplay.
Looking down into oblivion and voidness.
The ground far, far away as it seems from here, but in reality only a couple of seconds away.
Standing there.
Feeling eternity in a restricted world.
Feeling a decision in a prefabricated existence.

The whole arrangement's designed for men who, at some time or other in their lives, were looking for something their own environment couldn't supply them with.

Hi Shwynsh!!
I took a bit of a break - starting sometime in September - I think. But I often checked in just to see if anything interesting was being talked about. [and there was - but I just didn't feel that I could contribute in any way] Don't plan on being here all the time - like I was - but that's only to keep me from becoming TH obsessed!!.
It's cool to see YOU - too!!
GREAT BIG HUG
Craig!!

Hi Tom!!
Well.. I WAS kinda proud of myself... but YOU put me in my place!! lol j/k
So you've been HERE for [perhaps] 3 years?! YIKES!! I thought maybe there was something wrong with ME for being here so long. But thanks to you - I don't feel so bad!!
Thanks for thinking that I would probably be promoted to supermod almost immediately. That's nice to hear. But truth be known - I HAVE been asked to become a 'mod' - but turned it down. For two reasons. One - my age. According to TH rules - I'm far too OLD to be a 'mod' and two - I think it puts me in a better position IF I'm NOT one of the 'authority figures'. I myself have a lot of 'authority figure' issues - and understand why some people might be uncomfortable if the TH OLD GUY was a mod. [or whatever] As it stands - I'm the equal of every member - having no more OR less power. And that's just how I like it!!
GREAT BIG HUG
Craig!!

I have about a month to go until I reach one year...but um good for you.
Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair...
