Celebrating Flourish's 12-month anniversary
Flourish
Hey Flourish. My good friend.
I?ve written a lot of appreciation messages including some you. I?ve written some inspirational forum posts and I?ve written messages of support including some for you also. But today I?m not going to do that. On the day exactly 12 months to the day after you signed up as a listener, I?m not going to do that. I?m instead simply going write.
Do you remember the early days in the listener chatroom? It was so much fun back then and you were one of those really bright and breezy types that blew through the door like a summer breeze. It didn?t take long to realise how well liked you were in the community. Everybody knew Flourish and the room came alive when you entered. Being a little bit different myself, I welcomed you as my favourite listener starting with F. What do you don?t realise is that F stood for fave. You were such a fave of mine back then and you?re still one of my faves now.
And that?s simply because some people have a particular characteristic that?s hard to find and even harder to describe. It?s the personality equivalent of the Higgs Boson and it?s not about being humorous or charismatic. It?s about being genuine. And to be honest, you?re about as genuine an article as there is in this place from my experience.
Now I know that I can?t give you anything intangible as a 12-month anniversary gift so I thought I?d give you some links instead :)
It's Possible
Flourish ? Nurturing Potential
People don?t change, they reveal who they really are
One small positive in the morning can change your whole day
Super Flourish
Good enough
So to conclude, I just want to thank you for being a fantastic and supportive listener; an amazingly dedicated mentor; and a very good friend. Roadie :)

Flourish! A whole year, I can't believe I didn't spot this sooner! As I may have told you before, I respect you and your patience an incredible amount, and I'm so happy to be able to call this out on your cupsaversary❤ You are so special to me (and your music taste is even more awesome than you, if that's even possible)
@Lyra- Thank you. I'm glad you liked the music. Thanks for taking a moment to celebrate this cupanniversary:)
Happy anniversary @Flourish ! You're definitely the kind of personthe world should be full of: kind, nice, helpful, sweet, patient, supportive and I could go on and on with adjectives! To summarize, you are truly AWESOME! Thank you for helping the community, I reallyadmire your work, especially your forum posts! Keep on being amazing! <3

Synxaritiria Flourishakimou!Thank you for being my friend!
@Michaelmichael- Parakalw (???????ώ - You are welcome/Pleased). Thank you. I'm glad to be.
@Roadie- You are very articulate and know how to liftme up in my low point without me even saying anything. What you wrote was wonderful. For 1 year I never knew what being your favorite person starting from F meant. I always use to tell you, my actual name does not start with F but you said it is okay and I didn't understood, but now I do. It is special. You made me smile a lot Roadie. Not only because of what you said, but because I know whatever you say is genuine and you mean it. That holds a great value. I am honored to have such a good friend as you. You also deserve to be told how wonderful you are, because each day you change lives and put a smile on someone's face. Thank you. I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart.
@Flourish

Congratulations on twelve glorious months of your remarkable service,we hope to celebrate a couple more! The times spent with you on the Community rooms, the big 'reveal' and the hope that you surely will receive 'that badge" we always wanted you to give(remember?:D) shall always be cherished :) Kudos to you!!(and of course,toRoadie for rememberingthis day and for this thread)
@Dhara94- Haha, You still owe me that badge! XD I should link the suggestion box now
If you can't invest in making it a reality, don't worry you can pay a compensation by sending me that pearl in your pic (I hope it is genuine) LOL
