For myself I was moved after reading Shine user River's "From My Heart...The Gathering". The power of community is so strong on Shine that these users went out of their way to meet for the very first time.
Enjoy!

Report AbuseYes The Gatherings was a wonderful one. I chat with those who went on the gathering trip, long before they went on their gathering. So I knew them. And what a wonderful group of shine friends they are. And how wonderful they were able to all go together for the gathering, I wish I had been there too. But they made posts for all of us to share their trip with. The places they went to , the Fun times and pictures, and memories they made. And the friendships, all so priceless. And to hear of their wonderful trip and see where they went and see them too was awesome to me. Though I wasn't with them , I felt I was through their posts writing and pictures. I say WOW how wonderful for them all , and what a Gathering it truly was........xoxoxo Casy :)
There are many good post here on shine, that is why I come here. I have met allot of really cool people , friends here. Love the Poetry...from "No Name" and his stories. "Micheal" Silent Knight" "Poetry" thought she hasn't been on much, she is a great poet. And "Viper" with his sexy and some times haunting poetry...Where are you handsome "Viper" I , we miss you...Kisses..And there is" Ryneisha's" poetry a another really great poet. and so many more.

And "Princess Diane" with her posts and poetry too on life and love.
'Peapod" , Lady-Jane, 'Snow-Bunny" and "Super A" on their Posts of Prayers for our friends and how they truly are our friends with Love.
And again "Lady-Jane" with her FUNNY post , that well surely make us all laugh. I miss them, she has been in the Hospital...I hope she is ok and well be back with us all at shine again soon. Come back" Lady-Jane.
And then their is our "Canis" our cool, bittersweet Canis out in S.F. Calif. He's my buddy. And a little touch of rebel. Who is one to speak up.
And " Jax" my bud, who isn't on as much as he used to be...I miss you "jax babe. Where are you "Jax" Coffee is on......
And "Valiant" with his cool post...some inform, some on the sexy/wild/fun side...Gotta love him.
And "Stars/Clearwater...She can stir things up...she is my sweet bud who just had a baby boy...So she is not always on as much...I miss ya "Stars"
"Jules" who comes and shares her Painting with us.Very good too "Jules"...Love ya...And another Artist 'Stitch" with her stitch works and crafts.Talented in deed.
And the loyal meeting group at J's.. "Kim" beautiful "kim" and "GG", " Allswell. "Rei", "Wildchild", 'Trueblue" . ''Katie" " Ginger""Micheal, "Viper", Draco", 'Cody", "Big Ron" "Ada" and "Casy'" too.Etc, etc, etc... many more the list goes on.

Report AbuseHello Brenda,
I really don't know what to say, Except Thank You!!!
The Gathering of Shine was and is a remarkable change to my life.
Shine has been a Hugh part of my daily life for the past year.
Many a Great People here, I express with Great Enthusiasim.
Casy has definatly sumed things up with the variety of people here including herself I add to her list,
I try to peek in and comment on generally what I'm feeling in a day to new posts, And of course a daily visit to those whom are most familiar,
Not always able to get to so many, but efforts are made.
Sometimes go to posts just in curiosity, not leaving comments, but feeling general ideas of what people are thinking on.
My favorites of course are many to name, wouldn't dare to leave any out so I'll just say I have to mention My Dear Irish,
She and I connected when I first came to Shine, She has been a Supreme Friend and support on a Large level in my life since and always will be.
And good ole Bud{ No Name } A spiritual Kinship he and I have made.
I have to admit,there are more assets to Shine such as the Food, Parenting, Fashion, I don't go to, No peticular reason except I get so wrapped up in Chatter People.
Time to get on the Shine wheel and start a spin around on what is available Here !
Again I want to Thank You Brenda and The Entire Staffing of Shine for
what you bring to us here, Truely a positve thing in my eyes to the internet.
PRAYERS IN FULL CIRCLE
Sincerly,
dolphin

Report AbuseHellooOOoo Brenda. I am so glad you featured "The Gathering". This is truly the best of Shine because it really shows what can come of this community. I was so moved by their story and they are all truly great people. Would you believe that they even sent me a gift of a ceramic "peapod"? Talk about being surprised! I will treasure that gift forever! I was literally moved to tears when that came in the mail.
I just want to thank-you for all your hard work in keeping this place running. I know it means alot to so many here. I wish I could list all the special people here and all the great blogs they write, but I just can't. There are too many. Thank-you for everything.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Love, hugs, and peas......
Peapod oOo O Oo oo o o OO oo OO
