Dear IL Members,
I have been a part of this group for almost a month now and have been participating and getting fabulous interactions from my other members here..Everyday I don't miss to pay a visit to this site.
I must say IL has become an "addiction" to me...I have been a visitor to almost every thread in this website and have been time and again going through the "Who am I ?" thread to know more about my unseen friends..Truely this forum is a wonderful intiative to know each other just beyond their names.
Initially after becoming a member, I had been quite apprehensive to write about myself, coz I wasn't sure how many would be interested to know about me, there are already so many popular senior members in this forum known to every one and me whose just a month old, thought wouldn't arouse any interest in you. But then, I realised I made a mistake..The kind of response each and every one of you give to all new/junior members is just mind-blowing. All senior members, through your prompt response/kind words to juniors like me, you make us feel very special and wanted in this group. It's all your attitude that has changed my outlook...Thanks to IL Members for that...Thus, I am taking this opportunity to open up myself to all of you and let you all know more about me. Hope you'll pay little attention to know about me more than just my name..

Finally Preethi as a Person, I am very talkative by nature and love to talk to anyone and everyone around me (even if the listener has no mood to listen to me!!), I am generally very cool type and nothing puts me down so easily, I deeply believe in God and his presence everywhere, I leave all the good and bad things in my life to god and keep going. I do have my own weakness like ego, arrogance, stubbornness, mood swings etc, inspite of those characters I try to make sure I don't let these qualities dominate me, I prefer to imbibe and try to execute the good qualities in me (and in others) most of the times and try to see the positive side of life at any given time. I am a strong believer of positive thinking and attitude as that's what makes a person more strong against all odds in life ! That's in short about my character.
Hope whoever read about me must have had a good time pass...if not, I apologise, Will try to Project myself in a less boring way in the future (but won't give up writing about me again until you're satisfied! hahahahaha)...!
Have a Nice Day and Enjoy !
Love,
Preethi
