A Community Found

Ah, yes.
Our old friend,
Pride.
 
Consider it 
a salt.
 
You can never truly
see, recognize, feel
another man's pain.
 
For one cannot
walk a mile
in his shoes...
 
while still
wearing your own.
 
Do you,
my friends,
even realize
I never found
my soul...
 
until I encountered
you here
at this seemingly
unknown IP address
 
that I
now call...
home?
 
And now,
that pithy duck
of redoubt
reminds you...
 
Just a pinch.

I changed this soo many times. How do I? Yes, how? Well, I work until my soul,
nay, let's not get carried away-my inner self just says "Enough". I hope it works for you. I have come to simply love you all. This "community" has helped me so much.
Thank you,

Doug Colthurst
