hello-feeling a bit shy!!

Post: # 208437Post madwitch »

hello. I am really pleased to have found this forum as it seems to be just what I am looking for!
I have spent most of my adult life working as a health care professional, becoming more and more disillusioned about healthcare and life in general and finally trying to work out a new style of life. I am really looking forward to learning and hopefully contributing on this forum.

Hi and welcome, you are among friends,
Our remote ancestors said to their mother Earth, "We are yours."
Modern humanity has said to Nature, "You are mine."
The Green Man has returned as the living face of the whole earth so that through his mouth we may say to the universe, "We are one."

Hi there and welcome :wave:
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Hey and welcome
I would have previously thought of myself as a bit shy.... It's amazing what a conversation starter this is :iconbiggrin:

...um, how can I make that?...
