   (((((Fuzzy))))) - it's so nice to hear your voice finally, and what a beautiful and honest voice it is; and I agree with all the others that it is an honor that you have shared yourself with us.
Always remember, Fuzzy, that people treat you according to who THEY are, not who you are - they treat you in accordance with THEIR identities and philosophies, not yours. When others berate and demean you that way, they are trying to make themselves feel better at your expense. You alone have the right to define your identity and worth.
My addition to the list: Fuzzy is so very LOVED because Fuzzy is so very, very LOVABLE.
P.S.: Oooooooo - I think I could really get into martial arts. Hmmmmmmmm!
