I am not so new now, but I wanted to post this here to reassure new people joining EC. On Monday, it will be exactly two months to the day since I joined here, and do you know? .... Several times, I've had a tear in my eye. No, not because anyone's been unkind or anything, but in fact, the complete opposite. Everyone's been so kind to me and made me so welcome. On that day. 8th April, I was very nervous, and anxious about what sort of reception I'd get here, but I needn't have worried. This is a caring and safe place. My self confidence has improved dramatically, and I've made many good friends. Thank you so much (*hug*) To all new members here, can I say welcome, and enjoy your time here. This is really a wonderful place. I feel blessed to have found it.
