    Change is the face of nature,
    Nothing remains the same,
    Including me, why, you wonder,
    I joined my friends here,
    Two years back this week,
    With a little apprehension,
    And a little tension,
    With too much worry about
    Online safety and effects
    I am here still, boisterously so
    Energetic to still be part of the community
    that has adopted me in various roles,
    As a friend and as a family,
    A podium for sharpening my wit,
    A place that pushes me ahead,
    Not giving me, a moment to look back,
    Now, life has a enhanced significance,
    Not that it wasn’t good earlier,
    Being able to be there for others,
    Has spruced up the train of life,
    Life's too short for yesterdays,
    It moves along too fast.
    I want to look forward ,
    And what it has to offer,
    With the winds of change blowing,
    With a appeal that keeps me filled,
    With the same vigor to carry on,
    With the confidence that I have gained,
    I am the driver of my train
    With friends here joining me
    And leaving me at some point,
    But I am still happy you all are
    A part of my journey here.
    Thank you my friends for being there.

    Advanced Congrats..
    Nicely expressed Shanthi..the feelings that go through when thinking of IL family..
    It has given us confidence and what not...friends from all walks of life..each one special in their own way..sharing their experiences, their intelligence and their time too...which has helped us a lot...as a whole.
    Thanks is not enough, we all know...but is there any equal word to that..

    Dear Shanti
    Welcome back,
    with not just one but 2 posts to express your feeling to this wonderful site.:thumbsup
    Congrats Shanthi for completing 2 years in IL
    That was a beautiful poem on IL friends, you have expressed it so well,
    with so many up and downs but still this train goes on, some continue the journey and another few leave you somewhere in the middle but still there are some new ones who come and continue our journey and make so lively.
    The love and affection we get her is just becoz the 2 kind soul giving us such lovely platform to express and share, and give something to other who are in need.
    Beautiful poem as usual.
    Now don't tell it is just a scribbling...RantRant
