Hello Everyone...

[Tajiri]

Hello everyone...Tajiri here. Some of you may recognize me, however; my postings have been scarce over the last year. I have been around since Lori was the director and since this site was the orange forum. I have been on a long journey through healing from the abuse I endured and the journey continues. I have survived the trauma of my T retiring; I have a new one and she is wonderful. She is experienced, charming, and challenging; most of all she is compassionate and caring. We all need challenge even when it hurts or makes us angry or makes us want to quit...DON'T QUIT! It is the challenges that prove to us that we are capable; we are worthy; we are intelligent; we make a difference. All of us have more strength than we realize.

There have some newcomers that have posed the question 'do I belong here'. If you were looking for a safe place to be then you do belong. I was so frightened when I started and finally found the courage to take that first step. Many of us can relate to that.

Anyway, I want to say "I'm back"; I hope I am welcome (there's that question) and I hope to get to know more of you...and you me.

I do want to put feelers out for EarthHorse and let her know that I think of her every day and I light wonderfully scented candles each day. Currently I am burning a lovely balsam fir scent and I hope she can enjoy it. You are all welcome to enjoy the candles I burn...from fir to the beach, I share these calming effects with everyone.

Hello, welcome back. Earthhorse is working on some stuff but has been checking in occasionally.

I switched Ts this year too. It was quite the challenge, but has proven to be a good thing.

Hi Tajiri,
Welcome back.
I used to be on the old site, too. Glad you are making progress in your healing. What an encouraging post!
