I will be removing my credit information, and closing my account after this post. I just wanted to say a few things....
It's been real, sometimes it's been fun, often it's been maddening, but I have always come back after cool downs. Not this time, never again...
There are those whom I will miss greatly, their quips, their lives, and their help. You all know who you are, I never have to reveal Gods angels to themselves...
Even those with whom I have disagreed with, no matter how maddening it became, and no matter how angry I may have gotten, I always respected your points of view, even when it did not seem so...
I will miss the moderators, their level-headedness, and though we were all quick to critisize (I know, a famouse Rick spelling error) them, they had a difficult job to do, and they did it well. Kudos...
To all who stay, and to all who read this, my email has never been hidden, it has always been in my signature, and you may feel free to drop me a line anytime...
My final words are this, a poem that is due to be published in just a few weeks:
FREE
I'm free! Free at last!
Free of the yolk that kept me wrapped;
Shattered the shell that kept me trapped.
My wings will spread-my voice cry aloud;
Shatter the stillness of the morning with
A song that will issue from my heart,
And lay itself bare for all who will care.
I am free!! Slave no more!
Able to open all those closed doors,
Free to turn my chains into rings,
To have a heart beating with the speed of
The winds!
So free! So timeless, nothing can hold me-
My wings will spread, the sky will unfold;
The clouds my pillow, the stars my light,
The sun and moon will forever be bright!
I am free! Free at last-
Thanks to a Cross, I am free at last!
Christ set me free, and my only prayer that I am publicly writting in here is that He will set everyone else free as well.
God bless you all, and goodnight from Rochester, New Hampshire.
Rick
In the begining, God created the heavens and the earth.
