This is a Miko happy birthday thread! So every one get on in here and shout it out!
Happy Birthday Miko! I'm beginning to understand what an out and out amazing genius of a person you are! You shine the sheep till the shepherds all shimmy!
It'd be wrong to make a birthday wish because grace abounds for me right now. And you're all part of it. This time last year I didn't know most of you; but I feel now that my life has been vastly enriched by the community of MetaChat, especially by the very real friendships I've got with you folks here.
Thank you all for sharing yourselves, which I think is basically the name of the MetaChat game. Thanks for sharing your humor, your ideas, your quirks, your opinions, your vulnerabilities, your successes and failures, your pictures and music, your tales and adventures, your art and your knowledge. You're the great people of this world, living full, working hard at it, reaching to connect.
Every birthday for me is a day of celebrating good things in my life, and MeCha is very high on the list. Y'all have given so much and make it such a good daily touchstone of a place. Thanks for the birthday wishes and for being you, everybody.
An almost belated happy birthday, Miko. I was really looking forward to meeting you at Bunnystock. That's not a guilt thing, just a true thing, and it sounds like you are doing great all around right now, which is the best birthday you can ask for.
