    Default Isn't it amazing, the stories that unfold here?

    We are all such interesting people. It may take time to reveal what makes us interesting. The more I read your posts, and blogs the more I get to know each of you. I have been here for a while now but even so I am just learning about some of you who I have been chatting with everyday.

    We have had members who have been homeless, we have members who survived abusing relationships. I though I was pretty boring myself, until I though about all the stories I have told. IF I were to highlight my life there would be juicy parts. I have learned that I have more to offer then I though. And I have learned that I have more in common with other people then I thought.

    What have you learned from the Village besides how to save money?

    Ann,
    I have learned that it is people like you that make this place so wonderful. I am sure I would have made it thru my ordeal with my niece this past couple of weeks, but just knowing that other people cared really made a difference. Thanks so much!!

    I have recieved such great support here. I love to read about what others go through, my thought is this, if I am to go through something similar than hopefully things i've read here will help me through whatever.

    There are so many strong people here at FV. I feel so much better about myself knowing things can happen to anyone and also knowing that we can make anything possible.

    Well--thanks to people like you, I'm more interested in home decorating than I ever have been! And, I'm going to start blogging more. I'm waiting a few days because I have a feeling that I'm getting a new camera for my bday and it will make it easier to add pics.

    I have learned that it is possible to honestly feel strongly about people you have never met! The internet and FV in particular is an amazing thing.
