Apologies and growth.

Greetings, FA! It's been quite some time and you definitely deserve a truthful explanation as to why I've been absent for so long.
Two years ago, I had some financial troubles and made the hasty decision to take commissions to help pay for a fix I urgently needed on my car. You see, everything in my area is literally miles apart and if I were to land an interview and eventually, a job, I would need a car to travel to and from work. Of course, I was never hired anywhere and to this day I'm still very much jobless. There's quite the list of things that went wrong during that time but the biggest and most significant mistake was mine for taking from you kind folks during a difficult and hopeless time and for that, I'm really, truly sorry. As I've already explained to my wonderfully patient commissioners, I'll finally have the funds to pay everyone I've wronged back this Friday. I know I don't deserve to be forgiven for my severe idiocy but I'm eternally grateful to every one of you, even if you didn't commission me, for your kindness. I'm very happy to be part of such an amazing community and I hope to remain a part of it for some time to come.
As a side note, a few of my kind commissioners chose to donate their funds to me rather than receive a refund and for that, I decided gifting them with a piece of art was the right thing to do so they wouldn't come out empty handed from this whole mess of a situation (I figured everyone would want to be refunded by now but if they didn't, they definitely deserved some sort of compensation).
Thank you for reading, everyone! I hope all has been well!

Sorry to hear about your previous situation, but respect to you for handling it in such a mature manner. Hope things continue positively your way :).
Due to how convoluted life is and with chains of events that cannot be helped and often can't be stopped, it's alright. I know I'm not one of the aforementioned commissioners and I'm a bit of a quiet watcher most of the time, but the update is appreciated all the same. Hope things look up for you from here on out!
