Well, here it is. My 1000th post....hard to believe. I have waited and waited for the inspiration to hit me. The funny thing is, the inspiration was here, in front of my face all along. It's your hoax, Michael. What else could be better inspiration on a person's milestone post, than what this forum is all about? So here goes it.......<br /><br />What is the purpose of this hoax, this forum, the videos, the tweets, the facebooks? It's the never-ending suspicions of our minds, hearts and souls. It's the love, joy and contentment we get from knowing that you, Michael, are still here on earth. The purpose of the hoax, I suppose, has multiple layers......much like that BAMcake we all dream of sharing. It's fairly apparent that the layers represent everything from evil in the world to an ARG unlike no other. Nonetheless, it is an adventure of a magnitude that will never be recreated. It's entertainment in the highest degree possible. It's an eye-opening process that sheds light on evil. However, Michael, above all it's you. It's a complex maze of intrigue, deep thoughts and creativity. <br /><br />For the most part I am alone through this. I mean to say, alone in everyday life. Nobody around me will listen, pay attention or really cares. Though it saddens me, it does not stop me from endless thought. I come here, read and I am astounded by the sheer smartness of people. The members here need to give themselves a pat on the back. It's because of them, I push myself to think....thank you all. I am a creative and curious person by nature. I am always looking to expand my knowledge on subjects. I feel a person can be educated, but still lack true knowledge at times. Does that make sense?<br /><br />I decided on the name Wishingstar because I have always loved the first star of the evening...the wishingstar. I also love Disney. The song When You Wish Upon a Star has always been special to me. It makes me cry every time. Though I am no longer that little girl in daddy's arms, I still hear him sing it to me when I gaze at the stars or visit Disneyland. I am a sentimental fool at times.....but love it. I cherish good memories. Memories tied to music are particularly sweet for me. As I said in my birthday wish to you, look to the evening star....all my best wishes are there for you. <br /><br />This hoax isn't about who is right or who is wrong. It's not even about all those wonderful clues we have deciphered. It's an adventure, like you said. It's a personal adventure of faith above all. Can I truly believe in something I can not see? My simple answer is: yes. Though I may never meet you, my faith tells me I already have. I have met you here, among the threads of this forum. Perhaps, I have talked with you unknowingly. If that is the case, I do hope you see the respect and love I live by. I treat people the way I like to be treated......equally, unbiased and with love always. I can't begin to imagine your life of turbulence. Ups and downs, twists and turns.....enough for most to call it quits. You just kept on giving, I see that now more than ever. Talent like I have never seen before, places I have never been before...it's all here. <br /><br />Looking back over my posts; some I laugh at, some I cry at. Yet, some still stand the test of time for me. I once compared this hoax to great works of literature. Intentional or not, this hoax will go down in history as a great work. It's a reinvention of how great works are written. It's brilliantly alive with colorful characters, stupendous sub-plots and gripping emotion. It's life in the here and now...relatable on all levels. My posts about it all will eventually go away. My time here will end, and all will return to something less. I will be OK, because it was the greatest of adventures. <br /><br />In closing my 1000th post I would be remissed if I didn't thank everyone involved here. The Admin, the Mods and all the members with their brilliant thoughts.....so, thank you very much, your talent, hard work and dedication astound me. My friends here are among my special blessings.....I love you all. My family has put up with me for months.....I love them beyond words. Michael, words are not enough....I can not put into words what I feel. So let this post be my thank you from the bottom of my heart, to the top of yours. You are brilliant with your creative mind. Most of all you are brilliant with your love....thank you.<br /><br />Look to that evening star when you can, sing a little song in your heart and dance as though all can see.....I'll be there.<br /><br />God Bless you Michael,<br />LOVE,<br />Wishingstar
