My belated birthday wishes to Linda! It �s a happy ending to a long discussion after all. Thank you Victor for a great solution. We all have different opinions and it �s ok to express them here, so no worries, Michaela. :)

I like Victors Idea...and I agree with Zora/linda completely. It is wonderful to see the congrats, it indeed makes the site feel so human.
Now it is indeed more a matter of being �known/popular � on the site and it would be nice if there was a birthday blessing for each one.
(I turned 40 a few days ago but the girl in me still loves birthday greetings and I suppose I �m not the only one.. ;) |

Great message Linda! Great idea Victor!
In addition to what you wrote, this site is one of the few places where we can talk about our jobs - and we pretty much understand each other and each other �s situation. We can talk "shop" because we �re all teachers striving for the same thing - good teaching - educated and interested students - good working conditions and better pay - and the most important thing:
More respect for teachers all over the world.
Here we can complain, criticize, share, help, advise, sympathize and understand, because we �re all doing the same thing. To be a teacher is to be human in every aspect -therefore this site has to also have a human side to it.
Let �s keep the images down-sized - and our hearts warm and caring. L

Linda: your words touch me!!! I �ve been away from this site for quite a long time �cause the spirit of sharing has been lost,( I was sad about it) but you make it come back!! Victor �s idea is wonderful and we will share our special days as we used to! May be the Cafe is the right place for this, but the messages disappear after a while. Thanks for finding a solution! |

My Lindabella friend... what else can I add? you know I totally agree with you
I know we were breaking rules, but I also know that we were losing that part that used to make the forum more lively and caring
All of the people who have received birthday wishes have expressed how well they felt
Anyway, your message was so great, thanks for your words and thanks Victor for understanding and finding a solution
