Now, I know what some of you may be thinking.
But I have a confession to make: No, I'm not a newbie. I'm returning for the second time after months of going silent without a form of communication due to extenuating circumstances. And believe me those circumstances were very... dire.
I've been... dealing with a lot for the past two years. I've dealt with a lot of people of varying shapes, sizes, backgrounds... I've dealt with situations that both gave me a life lesson to never forget yet scars to always remember...
By this point, at least two of you might remember me if not three of you. For those of you that don't, heck... I don't blame you! I don't blame you one bit for that. And for the newer members reading this post, please allow me to introduce myself...
This is Miyu.
Or well, I used to go by Miyu. I just go by different aliases now such as Shu or Mystery.
And I wanted to say not only do I wish to return (if I'm welcome, of course), but... I wanted to say that I'm sorry for disappearing so suddenly. I'm sorry for vanishing into what seemed like thin air and leaving no traces. And I know that an apology will not fix that or change that. But I wanted to make one to each and every single one of you because you each deserve it; even if I don't know you and you don't know me. I truly feel you all deserve an apology because this was a Moderator that disappeared from the site.
And I'm sorry.
And I hope I can be forgiven.
I didn't want to disappear permanently without ever giving you all an apology if things still were going south for me... but right now they're not. They're going so much better than before, and I wanted to at least do this today before anything else (despite the emotional days).
So, dear members of this beloved site... I thank you for taking the time to read this if you do... and I hope that you all continue to have fun here. Really and truly even if life takes you far away.
