    Good bye

    Just wanted to say good bye to everyone as I am leaving the forum. Some of recent events in the news have made me realize that I need to make some changes in where and how I spend my time, energy, and money.

    Thanks to all who have posted and offered helpful advice, insights, and information. I really appreciate it. Best wishes for the future,

    awakenedsoul

    You will be missed awakenedsoul. I hope you can at least drop in from time to time to say hi. All the best.

    Peace be with you, awakenedsoul!
    My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far today, I have finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already!

    I'm with Catherine, even though I believe in people moving on when they need to. Blessings on you, awakenedsoul, for telling us you're going, knowing it would matter to us to know.

    Best of luck with your new found place to spend time. We all make changes from time to time to fit where we need to be right then. Stop back when you are ready, we will still be here.

    I question often if I belong on a simple living board, sometimes my life does not seem all that simple "compared" to others. I like visiting here however so I stop by from time to time. I dropped the frugal board as I felt I no longer related to many of the topics talked about there, though it seemed like I had been there so long I knew each of the posters in a strange way. No one mentioned I was gone or sent a message asking where I was, so I guess I just drifted off to the lost world of the net to them

    All the best, awakenedsoul! I must say I admire the way you have fashioned a simple life for yourself. If you find your way back to this forum, I would be more than happy to see you post again.

    Bye. I always admired your commitment to meditation and yoga and taking care of yourself on that level. Always seemed highly desirable and always something I wish I could emulate (well I could I guess, but I'm necessarily so well organized at present , so hence the admiration).
