eXpired

Just went over my statistics and found out that I haven't posted a "saying-hi" post. Which is weird cause I meant I had done it ages ago. Anyways, I joined this community in 2004, not been a frequent user, but dropped by from time to time.

Recently I received a promotional e-mail, and returned to the forum after I had completely forgotten about it. Don't know if I'll be more active than I have been up till now though, but at least I have posted this one "saying-hi" thread.

Cya,
eX.

Well come and say hello when you drop by so we know you're here.

Nice to see you out and about.

Welcome back! Please jump in, we can always use a new perspective

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.

Fernando Pessoa, 1918
