Thank you!

It has been exactly 1 year, since I started uploading on Furaffinity and sharing art with people outside of friend groups.
When I did, I did not know what to expect from the site and its people.
Yet from the very beginning, it's people embrased me and made me feel welcome and safe. It has been quite a journey from last year October. The art I saw, the people I spoke to, made me ask a lot of questions and seek a lot of awnsers. It made me reflect of how I draw and more importantly on why I draw. Trying to awnser that question allowed me to think about the future instead of just living in the moment.
My writing hiatus made me think a lot about what I said, and how it was said. I rarely did before. This reflected back into the real world. I started speaking clearer with people, started being less indecisive. By trying to find clarity in the motives and handling of the characters in my writing, I also started to seek clarity in the goals and motives of myself in the outside world. It has helped me in dealing and connecting with people much more than I imagined.
So, I wanted to thank all of you, for the advice, the notes, the kind words, the interactions and all the art, work and tutorials you have shared. All of these things helped me see the world in a much better and healthier way. May all of you also find growth and meaning in the work and words that you share. And if any of you wish to share, ask or say anything know that my DM's are always open. Doesn't have to be about art or work, can be whatever, whenever. I don't always respond fast, but I try.
May good health keep all of you.
