I just want to say a big thank you to everyone at Lindaland... I wish I had money to donate but I'm struggling as it is... Perhaps once my career is established I will be able to donate a nice amount.

Anyway... There is no other place online or offline that shares experiences, knowledge, love, kindness, exploration, education etc like here in Lindaland. Before I found this site ... only ten years ago!!!!! I was frustrated and depressed.I had all these thoughts and experiences that I wanted to communicate, to suss out, share or process with others, and there was no-one! On finding this site I was genuinely but somewhat OTT about expressing my gratitude about finding such a source of inspiration and acceptance. I have grown so much from then. I was such a nervous person... I felt overwhelmed by people, by life in general. I felt like a sponge that didn't know how to integrate the information and I just wanted to hide away. When I did actually share my interests with people I felt like I was hurting my soul because I knew that they didn't fully take it seriously or give it any sort of validity so I constantly felt strange and naive.

However when I found Lindaland I was able to express these views and was also able to use it as a soundboard so that I could become more critical of them in a way that was still accepting. I've made great friends, discovered such fantastic people, opinions, stories, wisdom, knowledge that's been unmatched anywhere else! And I now feel that I've grown into myself and have the courage to be myself and the judgement to know when to express myself without hurting anyone in the process.

The only regret I have is that I'm not on here these days as much as I'd like to be for various reasons...such is life... But I do want to express further my gratitude and big hugs to everyone. Keep it up.. Remember there is no other place like Lindaland... Keep up the sharing, caring, the healthy scepticism, the debates, compassion etc. And do remember that there are people watching and reading from afar as well as people who are tuning in from time to time who not only agree or sympathise but are really really really just glad there is a place that exists called Lindaland with all the knowflakes keeping her lit!

Thank you
