Without you, no TarValon.net, and without the site, my life would have been so very different i can't even imagine it.
so here's to you RJ *raises glass* Thanks for an amazing life!
Exactly what Osaka said. This site, and therefore RJ, brought me some of the most important people in my life and led to some of the biggest (and most positive) changes in my life. I'm forever grateful.
“May you shelter in the palm of the Creator's hand, and may the last embrace of the mother welcome you home.”
I can't imagine not knowing the people I've met through this site. And, as others have said, without Robert Jordan, I'd not be here, and we'd never have met.
I raise my glass to toast a man that has come to mean so very much to me over the years. He created something that has impacted my life in several ways and I feel honoured to be a part of his universe in any way I can.
To the man, to his Family and friends, to his work, to his legacy, to all of his fans, cheers!
I was reading book 10 when I found out, I felt staggered, I looked back to reading my book and was shaken by the thought that the man who wrote those words was gone.
But he touched so many lives in such a positive way that he is never really gone. May we all be so blessed to have made such a positive impact on the world. Thanks Robert Jordan.
:beer Thank you for bringing us all together, Jim Rigney. There are so many people who have enriched my life who I would never have known had it not been for you.
When I started the WoT books, Robert Jordan had already passed away. The books are as close as I will ever be able to come to knowing this great man. I will always admire him and he and his books will always be in my heart.
A cousin introduced me to these books many years ago. It took me a while to actually read them, and it wasn't until my mom picked up book nine at a garage sale that I did.
But without these books, we wouldn't have TV.net, and without TV.net, I would never have met my fiance.
So, thank you, Robert Jordan, for the legacy you've left behind.
Cheers to RJ! He who got me through high school, made me new friends in college, and bound me to a book cult in my adult life! Without him my life would be quieter and emptier and not near as full of adventure! :beer
I'm so thankful to him for weaving my heart into this world with his words. If it weren't for his books, I'd not have found all of you wonderful friends and family! :grouphug
