I can't express to you guys how much this community has supported me through EVERYTHING.

Those crazy awkward years, where you learn who you are trying to be...

Those horrible years when life becomes difficult, and you are forced to grow up...

Those better years when you think it's all getting better...

And the next day, when the world reminds you that it's not.

Well...I've been on FA since 2009. That's a pretty long time and I have made some of the best friends, met some of my greatest supporters, and found a family that I am so grateful for. I've never felt so welcomed in my entire life, than when I was with you all.

Thank you for raising me to become someone that I (and hopefully you) can be proud of. I know I vanished. I know most people have probably moved on or forgotten me...

But I haven't forgotten you. Not a single one of you.

I love FA and I love this community and I love what everyone here has helped me become.

with eternal love,

Alice
