Thanks, Jonathan. * smiles * And I'm certainly guilty of the middle one. Not sure I'm awesome at the other two, though.

Thanks so much Jonathan!

Za, you are awesome because...

1) You look on the bright side and remind us to!
2) You are sweet
3) You are very encouraging
4) You love Jesus and want His best for your life
5) You are diligent in your writing
6) You are a good Za.

Thanks. (I've read in this thread a few times, but never posted. I saw your name and decided to see what you had written. Oh, it was about me. . . . . . )

Aniese, you are awesome because. . . . . .

1) You are always encouraging me

2) You write beautiful poems AND I got to see one

3) You take the time to make people feel special

4) You remind me to write

5) You show God's love in your writing

6) You are younger HW wise than I, but it feels as if you've been here forever

Oh my this thread. . . I laughed, I cried, it moved me, Bob. (And anyone who gets that reference is awesome because they get that reference.) Honestly, reading this thread and watching people uplift so many others is in itself uplifting. We often say Holy Worlds is a wonderful place, but the truth is, it's not the place so much as the people in it. We made a sad wave smiley. Now we need a happy cry smiley. *emphatic*


*hugs Elly tightly* You are awesome for making my day. Really, it feels wonderful to have someone list #6 as a virtue! But one thing: it's not polite to make people smile so hard and wide for so long that their cheeks get sore!

I'll. . . be back. After I randomly pick a few of my amazing friends on HW. I think I'll come to this thread often.

Nessie, you're awesome because you are my pen pal and fellow Editor.

I got it! And you are awesome for using it!

*adores this thread too*

I got it as well!! Your super-duperly awesome for using it

Okay. You all are absolutely wonderful. No, I’m serious, you all are. I think it all the time. Not just when I read the sweet things you guys say to me, but when I read a new thread created, when I see you all remain mature in a difficult and potentially inflammatory thread, and when I see you reach out to each other in times of need and support.

I love all of you, and each of you is special. Because of that. I have something to say to each of you. I did this in the Council hall to all the council members, but there are much fewer of them. So I can’t get you all in one fell swoop, despite how much I know you love monster posts. However! I can devote my time to each person. And I fully intend to do that.

Life is hectic, I get busy, but none of that is an excuse I want to use. I want to actually write all those things I think and never get the opportunity to say. Or that I think and just don’t post because I have to go do something else. We need to take the time to encourage, to reach out. Even if you can justify that all those other things you are doing are important, matter, and are a ministry to someone else.

I know that life is short, and that things don’t always go as planned. You don’t always get to say the things you wanted to, but never took the time to say. So, I am going to start right now, alphabetically. That will be the easiest way for me to keep track of who I have covered.


So, guess who is first?

Aeleknight

Sir knight, you are awesome for many reasons. Your relationship with your younger brother is clearly a strong one. While no pair of siblings are perfect (just ask all my brothers), it is clear to see you have his back. You are concerned about keeping the peace, going so far as to make sure members of the forum are not fighting with one another. You strive to show respect to young women on the forum by calling them Miss, and you have done an excellent job of keeping the forum error free as an editor. You post thoughtful responses and started a very interesting thread called Differentiating Between Soul and Spirit.

Thank you, for being someone who strives to follow after Christ, mirroring that even on an internet forum.

Cat (aka Amanda Kondrael for those who don't know this story), you are awesome because. . .
1. You are caring.
2. You dragged me into manga.
3. You tricked and dragged me into crocheting again.
4. You dragged me into Area 51. (And our resident conspiracy theorists can take that any way they want. )
5. And in that vein: you have great ideas and projects and lead them.
6. You guard my mouse hole while I write.
7. You let me read over your shoulder when you type on google docs even though you know I'll vandalize.
8. You share your awesome drawings of awesome things.
9. You write amazing drabbles.
10. You dragged me into Doctor Who. (Alright, so you didn't drag me. . . you talked about him so much I had to go find out who this doctor was. So, annoyed me into Doctor Who?)

Awwww! You make me happy, dearest Lottie Anne Elizabeth! (Only Alina will understand that nickname) And I already wrote a why your awesome list for you, but I wanted to say that all those things you said, go right back at you from me! You're awesome at writing, caring, helpful, my best friend, everything

And now, it's time for a few more:

Crushmaster, you are awesome because:

1. You're fun to chat with.
2. You're funny.
3. Your random bursts about knives in the chat room make me smile.
4. You love God. (And that is really awesome!)

Milly Manderly, you are awesome because:

1. You're sweet.
2. You love God.
3. You're funny.

1. You're fun to chat with.
2. Your my sister in Christ.
3. You have a sweet subforum. (Which I still need to read most of!)
4. You're sweet.
5. You're kind.

Philadelphia, you are awesome because:

1. You're kind.
2. You're my sister in Christ.
3. You have a awesome book, which I really really want to order but havn't yet.
4. You have been posting an audio book on your blog which I can listen to and content myself with since I haven't ordered the book yet.
5. You're just awesome in general!

More will probably come later!

Next person in line: Aemi

Aemi, you are so special for so many reasons. First, you are an encouraging person. You strive very hard to maintain a level of encouragement in everything you do, and say, around here. You take the time to critique things for people, not just as an editor, but also as a reader. You are quick to offer help, despite the fact that you are busy yourself, and you find delight is simple things, like the revival of an old thread. Thanks for being awesome in the different aspects of how you serve the Lord, Aemi.

Since I know you won’t be around to check on this, Aemi, I’m going to summon you, that way you still see it.

Thank you, Airianna. That's very encouraging; I'm reading it over and over.

I'm so glad, Aemi!!!

Thank you very much, Azyln.

I will hopefully do another list in here soon...
God bless,
Crushmaster.

* hugs her Mousie * You people keep making my days, ya know that? ( though I protest number three. I did not trick you! )

Now Cat, we had a discussion about this on the chat. You did too.

Aaw, thank you Andi. <3 I just needed this.

Another A name in the list:

Aisha Hammermast, you are awesome because you are a princess of the King of Kings. You've been incredibly interesting every time we talked. (I can't help it, I like interesting people. ) You find value in persuasive arguments (do you know how many people do not?)and love so much of God's creation. You are bright and chipper with an infectious soul, and you are a great person to chat with.

Thanks for giving us to opportunity to get to know you. You are awesome for that.
