I wrote this in honor of all the people here at Passions! Thank-you! I finally passed 1000 posts! Debbie One day as I was surfing, I was carried to a shore Onto a lovely island With so much to explore At first a little timid I hid myself from sight And watched the natives from afar (Afraid that they might bite!) The great and fearless chief As kind as he was wise Stood guard off in the distance With a vision in his eyes I studied all their rituals And learned to speak their tongue So thirsty for the passion shared Between the old and young. Hungering to join them Starving to belong I wandered to their welcome fire And sang their tribal song Such emotion filled the air! Until the day was done Chanting with a single voice Thousands, though as one And though I tend to drift away To other foreign places I always float back with the tide To these familiar faces. This island is my haven A home without a wall Where I can visit anytime Encircled by them all! “A home without a wall, Our haven without ends, A circle we all call Our Family of Friends!” |

Debbie, Congrads on the milestone and may there be many more. "Build a man a fire, he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life". Terry Pratchett |

STANDING OVATION!!! CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR 1000 MILESTONE! I still have a way to go to get up there, I've been busy with school so I haven't gotten to do much until now! (smiles) Such a beautiful tribute to Passions, I just know Balladeer and Marge Tindal and everyone else will love it! Thank you and we all too are inspired greatly by your love and words! (smiles) You have such a beautiful heart, dear friend, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Congratulations on your 1000th post!! I think with each voice added to the family chorus, the Song of Passions is sweeter. And your voice can be heard among us here!!! You did a wonderful job on this - thank you!  |

I don't know of any other such place where so many good people gather...it's truly paradise don't you think? Thanks again for helping me celebrate my first milestone. Keep writing! Debbie |
