"One Chapter Closes...Another One Begins"

This title for me is two-fold. Also, I know there are a people who hate reading long journal postings, so I'll make this brief.
I've recently been laid-off (for those who I haven't told). This has been causing me to almost spend my days job hunting, calling, and interviewing. So in that aspect, one chapter closes...another one begins.
Also, I haven't been on DA since Nov. I wish I knew how to explain it...other than when you get that feeling, urge, or "instinct" that tells you..."Now, it's time to go".
Lastly, I want everyone to know, as far as I know, I'm not leaving on bad terms. And if I have been a nightmare to anyone, I most humbly apologize...sincerely and truly. This place has not only showed me the beauty of the written word, artistic expression, and the soul of photography. This place has shown me a gathering of a group of people united...yet, with their own individual emotions, thoughts, and outlooks. To everyone at DA who has seen, commented, or talked with me, even a mere sentence...I thank you for it. To all of you that have my email address and want to write, feel free. To everyone else, and DA...thank you so much for everything. You'll always mean more to me than any words I could say would allow.

With much humble respect,
