Default Bye (for now)

I'm going to leave the forum for a little while. Or maybe for a long time. I don't know.

I cannot begin to describe how much my life has changed since I first started taking part in this forum and can only hope I have shared enough insights of my own to make up for the boundless wisdom I've received here. I came a hapless victim of the currents and now leave as master and commander of the sea.

Now, looking up at the clear blue sky, I can feel the wind is about to change. There isn't a cloud in sight to indicate when and where, but I know with every fiber in me that this next wind will be favorable to my journey - if I can catch it.

And I do want to catch that wind!

But to do that I need all hands on deck...
And I strongly feel I need to leave this harbor for the next.

So... Bye. Farewell. Adieu!

Thanks to all for everything,

love,
Jim.

I'll miss reading your posts, Jim. You were one of the many who helped me attain the love of my life (clichéd saying, but appropriate), and I'll always appreciate that.

Genuinely wish you the best of luck in all you do.

Oh, Jim, how I will miss your unwavering kindness and straightforward advice. But I am glad to see you off to new adventures. I wish you all the best.

Goodbye and I wish you only the best! Take care and I hope you get caught in the wind of your dreams and it helps you sail where you wish to go.

Thanks all for your kind goodbyes. I'll miss you guys too!

I may check in from time to time, but don't count on it... I really should be focusing all my attention on my own (ad)venture. Of course, you can always keep an eye on my blog if you want to see/read/hear where I'm going!

Until our paths cross again!

love,
Jim.

Hi (and bye) Jim!

Hold on to nothing, but the wind .. and long may she blow you to your hearts' content.

Jamie.
