		<description>Sandi, I must have been one of the first to be omitted in the organization. I have missed you and many of the others that I had met during my membership there. 

You always have such a way with words. I always respected your views and enjoyed your posts! I hope you and your family are well and your business is thriving!!

Hello to Mia and Pam too!

All my best,

		<description>Sandi, I agree wholeheartedly with Mia. You have so eloquently described in words what I have been feeling for a few months now, since I learned my account in this community had been deleted. 

I too volunteered my time and believed in the direction and goals of the community but felt the stanglehold getting tighter and tighter as the organizer pushed further down our throats, her ideals, as well as her definition of a virtual assistant. Toward the end of my association with this organization, it became more and more evident that there were many hidden and personal agendas that were being pursued. 

It is a damned shame as I too enjoyed networking with friends and fellow VAs in this community...but there are certainly many other networks and communities that embrace VAs like ourselves.

Cheers,
Pam</description>

		<description>Awe, Mia. Thank you so much for making my day! You always have a way of touching my heart and giving me warm fuzzies when I need it. Of all the friends I've made in the VA community, I value our friendship as one of the most honest and genuinely supportive of them all. *Sniffle* You're gonna make me cry! :) Thank you so much, just for being you.</description>

		<description>Wow.  I have to say that I am in awe of your ability to put to words what I have felt myself.  Torn between being hurt and betrayed, I can emphasize with your sense of disappointment.   

I value our community of VAs and the many friends I have made within it, you are among one of my most favorites, Sandi.

I appreciate you and I value the time and effort you put into conveying your authentic self.

Peace and blessings,

Mia</description>
