Sam, I wish you only the best with your time away. I totally understand the need for a break. You've been one of the pillars of GBT and always nice to me. Goodbye for now my friend.

Sammy I am almost at a loss for words, but I completely understand. Like everyone, I feel so blessed to know you, and have always considered you a wonderful friend. We both joined about the same time. I will celebrate 5 years here in 2 days...and you in 5 days. CONGRATULATIONS! During these 5 years I have watched you conquer your handycap. Your courage and strength amazed me....inspired me and others. You even helped give new meaning to my life...to look at my life differently. You taught me to 'smile to life' whatever it brings, although at times, I have a harder time doing that than you do...lol. I have had the joy and pleasure of getting to know you better and better year by year, and to watch you grow in your relationship with Yannick, and as a father to Patrick, to celebrate your marriage, the summer fun at the cottage every year, and so so much more. I cannot thank you enough for sharing your life with me....with all of us. You have inspired me in more ways than you will ever know. You are one of the kindest, wisest, smartest, and most caring men I have ever met in my life. That's why I call you Samsational! I am so pleased and happy for you because your life is now rich and full of happiness and love. I don't know anyone who deserves that more than you do Sammy. You've worked so hard for it. My tears are mixed with emotion. I will sorely miss you, but being the wise man that you are, you are right to put your RW family and life first. They are calling you...so I will not say farewell or goodbye, but so long for now. And never forget that I love you lots my dear friend. (((hugs))) :Dennis

Hi Guys, usually I don't have problem to write a message but this one is very tough for me. Since almost 5 years I'm an active member of GBT and I can say that i love this site. I met so many good friends who are still here but also many others who leaved without any explanations and it's not what I want to do. Since 11 days now that I'm in reflexion about what is better for me and in conclusion I decided to leave the site but not for always. I need to take a break, a long break. I need to change my mind, I need time for my Family for my Husband for my friends in RW. My work take a lot of my energy and what remains to me at the end of the day I owe it to my husband. Yannick never liked to see me on this site, not because he don't like it but he want to protect me from pain. I'm a very sensitive man, you all know that, each time something bad happended on the site, like bullying or quarrels between members, the departure of a friend, members who criticize Nicks because their videos is not post etc etc, all of that make me feel bad inside and Yannick see it and don't want to see me like that anymore then before he ask me to choose between him or the site you know where is my priority. I want to thank Nick for this exceptionnal site, a place where many of us found a Family, a hand to hold , when they need an attentive ear and a shoulder to cry it's the place, a place for all and of all ages. Since I'm here all of you treath me with respect and I did the same for you, I want to thank you all for this. Not easy to write with Niagara Falls in my eyes,can't see the keyboard..,lol..It's only at the moment of leaving that we can measures our attachment to a place..so tough for me. To all my closest friends from the beginning, I want to thank you so much, You made me live so much of good moment , so good memories. To the new friends, I'm sorry for not having the time to meet you more. You know guys that i love the life even if she brought me lots of pain and loss and I want to tell you before to leave that when you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive,to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love then make that day count!
Be happy with who you are and what you do, and you can do anything you want.
Although time seems to fly, it never travels faster than one day at a time. Each day is a new opportunity to live your life to the fullest. In each waking day, you will find scores of blessings and opportunities for positive change. Don't let your TODAY be stolen by the unchangeable past or the indefinite future! Today is a new day!”
Before losing everything, it's better to leave everything. Love you Guys, I keep you on the wall of my life, Friends forever's wall.
I leave the site for now but it's not a farewell..and when you will think at me, don't be sad, Smile, Smile to life.. With all my love.. Your Friend Alexis Samuel xxx
