Sign my Thanksgiving card

I just read two wonderful Thanksgiving posts from Shine users Irish and Casy. Irish wrote that she's thankful for "the people I have come to know both in person and thru Shine", and Casy said "express your thanks to that special someone or some ones. What would you say to them?".

That gave me a great idea - I want to create a Shine Thanksgiving card from user comments about the things you've experienced on Shine that you're thankful for. This is fantastic opportunity for both our users and our staff to hear how they've had a positive impact on others.

So share anything and everything related to Shine that you're thankful for, and if you have a favorite Shine editor this is a great time to thank them directly.

I can't wait to share your comments with the rest of the Shine staff.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

    Hello Brenda...

    I left a post on your other post..

    The favorite picks one.

    I want to say, that my outrage, is not directed personally at you.

    I am just very upset right now.

    I hope that you'll read my post, with an open mind.

    Thank you very much for your time.

    Classy....

    Hi No Name -- I'm sure I speak for many other users when I say it was both an honor and a delight to read about "The Gathering" and share in your experience.

    A huge thanks to you, Stormy, and the rest of the regular cast (you know who you are ;)) for being such an integral part of Shine!

    Thanks for stopping by Brenda, regarding the cleanning, Brownie Points for you, there is nothing better than a just "polished" feeling of our pearly whites!!

    By the way, Crest ProHealth toothpaste Night, is awesome, it gives you fresh breath for night time. Just wanted to share.

    Have a great evening everyone. This little helmet better hit the pillow.

    Hi Brenda..Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours and glad to see you got your teeth cleaned for the occasion..HA

    I have to say being a part of the Shine Gathering has changed my life. Such souls have touched me deeply.

    I have learned so much from Dolphin, Bud, Irish, and Jules..received so much care and love from them as well as Serenity, Stitch, Mrs B, mama Kaye..and those too many to list that stop by with kind words and insight.

    Laughed so hard with Patriot and the shinettes too fun..

    learned so much from those such as Devonia, J montana who have the controversial subjects up.

    Saw friendships blossom and loves unite. Read some steamy stuff with wow!!

    Read about lonely folks and tried to reach out..

    Worried about our overseas folks when storms and war ravaged them..eRi and Princess Dianne..

    Sent prayers in full circle in support of our sick shiners..Super A and Lady Jane our queens of joy and love.

    Learned about how guys think..Valiant and Canis, Kutter and Patriot..eye opening to say the least..

    Read beautiful poetry from so many that moved me so.. michaelg is a talent and a half..

    Learned of my gifts from No Name..my teacher and mentor as well as a dear friend..able finally meet at the Gathering..

    Saw you dear gal handle conflict and anger with grace and dignity..proud of you!!

    Shine has brought the world together here in one place for so many different walks of life..

    I have befriended Rose one of the great folks from CA that I have never visited but learned about her state..

    Was able to tell of my travels to Tn back to MI with support and kindness..and understanding of the trials with aging parents.

    And as you see I am a very talkative woman...shy to start here on Shine but was so well received I stayed and so glad I did!

    Thank you Brenda for all and your staff does for this venue of communications..It has been a highlight in my life!! PS you all are coming to the next Shine gathering!!

    peace always
