Famille Aimante: 2012

A message from Cressi:

Famille Aimante was built on love and the basis our line needed a home... So FA was created with everyone's involvement, a legacy was built. I will never forget the day, we all gathered around to talk about our future and what will be. I won't forget the day of getting Elite Isle and floating in the sky with Celi, the day we sat in the Council Room about getting a new land with FA's name on it, the day we received it and standing yet again this time on the ground with Celi and few others (a proud day for me having land in our family name) and then the ultimate heart breaking day tearing down the land. For those who have done this in the past, I completely understand how it feels to do this. I never want to experience that pain and turmoil ever again... It was for the best.

Going to a new clan was not a option, we wanted something that was ours and belonged to everyone. Having been through five clans and the departures in each of them have been tearful. As those clans meant a lot to me and some still do mean a lot to me. The ending of FA was no one's fault, I want everyone to know that but there comes a time when the drama doesn't want to stop and words get taken out of context. It happens a lot in clans and will never stop. Having been through many clans, drama is something truly unavoidable. I hold no regrets, no fears, no anger, no unhappiness...

Our family grew and I was very proud to be in FA even as your Queen, I was so touched with everyone wanting to be part of FA, it tugged at my heart strings. Each person come and gone will never be forgotten.

We gave FA our all and no one can say that we didn't, through the good times and bad times, they will never be forgotten, losing family over the course of time. Each person that left FA or for reasons made to depart, were part of FA and always will be. FA was in all of our hearts. I want to thank everyone that has always believed in FA, their dedication, loyalty and those who helped. None of you will be forgotten even the ones that left FA in the earlier times.

If there is one thing that I know that life is too short to hold grudges, regrets, anger and dislike. My New Years Resolution was to forget the past and move forward, and that's what I have been working on. I may not always be around but I want you to know that you will always be in my heart. Eternally.

Famille Aimante: L'amour d'une famille est la vie de plus grande bénédiction...

FA is our legacy and always will be. FA hasn't died forever, time for batteries to be recharged.

Someone that meant a great deal to me taught me a few things and who helped me learn Bloodlines better, so with that vision, FA will be built on peace and prosperity. Keep this in mind.

I wish everyone that has moved on from FA and gone into their new worlds, safe blessings and all the best for their future. I want nothing but happiness for each and one of you. I truly mean this from the bottom of my heart.

FA's new group charter:

"Far away in a magical place, thousands years of ago stood on top of a mountain, family gathered around to decide the fate on their family.... A vote was taken in and the name Famille Aimante was born... Famille Aimante standing for "Loving Family"! The Originals built the family on love, devotion and loyalty to each other. Each member is fiercely protective of each other. Together we stand united... This legacy will never die."

It is now 2012, so here is my one wish for all of us to have a blessed year filled with happiness, fun times and no drama. No tears of sadness only tears that are happy tears.

On this last note, I know some of you or even most of you see me in a bad light, it pains me this is true, but I never meant harm or hurt to anyone. I tried to do my best, and that's the one thing I know I can't be faulted at but remember this is no one's fault. I always said if FA was to die it will be because of me... FA has not died as yet *smiles*

*clinks with your glass* Until next time...
