Today is the American holiday Thanksgiving, and so I want to say thank you to everyone who has contributed to this website by stopping by and reading our articles, by sharing them with your friends, and by writing constructive and encouraging comments for the blog writers. Thank you for being people in search of new answers (which are sometimes old answers rediscovered) and new questions. Thank you for being a community of writer/readers, network-builders, and open-hearted learners. Thank you also for all you do in “the real world” to make places of beauty or clean up the messes or protect the weak.
And of course, a big huge thank you to the writers both here on this website and elsewhere for their bravery. It can be a really scary thing to put yourself out there in writing, on the net. Thank you for taking that risk again and again. We need every voice. I know it sounds clichéd but I’ve come to realize that it’s really true. We have to speak a new language and for that to happen we need every voice.
So, struggle on, my friends, with courage and good will, have a wonderful (holi)day and thank you!!!!
And thanks for making this happen, Michelle, our intrepid leader!
