Pei, I like you. I like that you write with such openness and honesty. I like that you are willing to listen to others' opinions, that you take them into consideration and then answer with such frankness.

I feel that you have come to your decision after deep thought and much soul searching. I think that you and only you know everything that is going on in your life. We merely see a small glimpse of it.

The people on this board are unlike any I have ever known. They care deeply and want so much for everyone to walk this journey and become who they were meant to be. They want to be sure that no stone was left unturned, no issue overlooked.

But, I think that we should respect each other and accept the decisions that are made.

And since we traveled part of this journey with you, we should wish you peace and happiness. Ultimately, we should want each and everyone of us to find peace in our heart. And I think you have. To me, that is success.

So, Pei, I wish you open doors and calm waters. I wish you a quiet spirit and an open heart.

I hope that you will stick around here. You make people think. That's always a good thing.
