With tomorrow being Thanksgiving, my thoughts today came immediately to this thread. I have so much to be thankful for this year. I have been here for less than 90 days -- still a newbie in my own eyes. And although each category contains multiple entrants, to me there are three groups that I am most thankful to for helping me find my way around these parts.

 

1. To the escorts who post and who have given so much of themselves and their time to me. Not only to the ones who I have actually hired, but to many others who have reached out to me and offered advice and counsel when I needed it the most. You are a remarkable group of gentlemen who I am highly privileged to know and learn from. And you have my gratitude for all that you have done for me.

 

2. To my fellow posters: I have said since day 1 that my mission here was to learn. So many of you have been so kind and gracious with your thoughts and experiences and the occasional smackdown when needed. You have made my job of learning about myself through these forums so easy. You have opened my eyes to so many thoughts and possibilites. Even if only reading your posts and not responding I was learning and for that I say thank you to each and every one of you. But especially to my closest friends who have been positively remarkable in sharing everything with me: NYTomcat, Doitb4ugo, Whipped Guy, IndyMedic2006, countryboywny, Diverdan, greatness -- most of you have been with me since the first days. I owe so much to each of you. And the best I can do here is say Thank You!

 

3. And last, and maybe even most importantly, the people who make this site go at all: Deej, Barry, Cooper for all you do for all of us: thank you. We don't tell you often enough how much we appreicate the invisible hand which keeps everything going. And of course, our dear Daddy. What can I say to you. This place has given me so much in the last 90 days. It's very existence has changed my life forever. Thank you for hosting us. And even more, thank you for being you. You have been kind and generous when a newbie screws up -- over, and over, and over again . But your kindness has not gone unnoticed. And it certainly has not gone unappreciated. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

 

To each and everyone of you -- I hope you alll have a great Thanksgiving. I have so much to be thankful for. And a lot of it is thanks to you.

3. If I didn't believe in nothing, I would believe in nothing.

[Michael Vincenzo]

I am thankful for:

 

1. My family that I have chosen (Joe, Macho & Bella). My best friend, Joe, has stuck by my side even when my family didn't want to, he always looks out for my best interests, and he sees me for who I truly am. I treat my two dogs, Macho & Bella, with the respect they deserve as living creatures and in return I am treated like a rock star each and every time I open the front door; maybe I'll go get a tatoo!
   
2. My big picture awareness of myself and the world that I live in. It evolves on a daily basis, makes me a better me, and helps me to be happy, healthy, loving, caring, kind, worthy of all good things, and to be of service to others.
   
3. Everyone that I have had the pleasure of experiencing. Every single experience in my life, even the ones I consider not so great in the moment, have contributed to who I am to date. I am very happy with me!
