My personal business is my own, not yours. I don't owe you a fucking thing and I make no apology for needing to take time out. That does not invalidate the contribution I have made to this community in the past.
I never saw myself as a leader. I was a custodian for a while. I stepped up and offered my skills and time to solve a problem and then handed it off when the problem was solved. Truth be told I will probably do it again. The community has always been bigger than me and I sure as shit don't need to do any of this.
Right now I am stepping up and trying to solve a problem that I see and offering my skills once again. I know this puts me in the firing line for some people because money is involved. For me it's never been about being popular or going with the flow. If I have to stand up get some shit thrown at me because I'm trying to make things better, I will. If the community wants to tell me to fuck off then I'm gone.
