Dear Friends and Acquintances
Here in South Africa the year 2008 has less than 3 hours to go... My friends in Australia and the East are already celebrating the New Year...
This was a very hard year for me, but it brought a lot of good things on my path. Please allow me to write some gratitudes from my journal...
Firstly to God who brought me through this year in one piece. It was indeed possible to do all things through Him who strengthened me.
To Piet who introduced me to this wonderful website - thank you my friend.
For all the treasured friends I have made here on RR, I am eternally grateful. You guys rock!!! Thank you for all your love and support throughout this year.
May the fire of hope keep burning in your hearts in 2009 and may all your dreams come true!!!
A huge group hug!!!! (((((Group)))))
