To everyone here on the Advisory Committee,
Thank you very much for making 2009 a year for me to remember and look back
on fondly. As some of you already know, I was finally diagnosed with
severe depressive disorder in January and have been undergoing therapy to
help me get my head on straight. I'm sure y'all have seen the various ups
and downs I've been going through and I want to express my heartfelt
gratitude to all of you who've sent me words of encouragement and kindness
during the bleak times.
In these times of near instant gratification via internet forums it may
seem to some that groups such as ours may not be what they once were. To
me, the AGA is not about answering questions or stroking peoples' egos
ooooing and aaaaahhing over pictures. The AGA is about the community of
aquatic gardeners supporting eachother. This year proved that to me time
and time again. Everyone here on this list has had some direct effect on
making the AGA what it was this past year. That means you are all
responsible in some way for making this one person's year a better and
brighter time that it otherwise would have been.
I can't express how much that means to me. Happy holidays and God bless
you all,
Phil
