Hello to my Gather friends!

Hello friends, I am glad to be actively back on Gather. I have taken some time away, as I have not published or shared anything for at least a month or more. But I want to get on Gather and express my feelings about a few things. I am going to be fair and balanced. First, I want to wish the best to both McCain Palin, and Obama Biden. No matter which candidate is elected, you are going to inherit a mess. Second, I want to recognize my Gather friends for the continued invites to new groups, the pings, birthday wishes, and continued friendship. I love Gather. I think that Gather is the best social network currently on the World Wide Web. Lastly, I want advice. I am a senior in high school. I am applying to colleges, I just had a break-up, and I am fixing to begin a life that is going to challenge and test me. I am one of the youngest members of Gather, and I believe that I have always learned from the wisdom and experience of those who have started their lives and have lived a little longer than I have. I say that as pure kindness, not as an insult to people that are older than me. I have seen the wisdom of Gatherers and I love the ideas you all have. Thus I would love to hear some of the ways you have lived a fulfilling and successful life so I can follow in your footsteps.

Again, I thank all of you, my wonderful Gather friends, and I wish you all the best!!
