I wrote my letter of resignation and with one click of a button, my life as a ranger has ended. I won't lie. I feel sad but this is one of the steps I need to take to discovery who I am now. You all keep me on that path with your encouragement.

Good job! :) I know that was hard, but at the same time don't you feel some relief??
As far as keeping you on the path..do I *HAVE* to do it with encouragement?? Can I do it with a swift kick in the - - - every now and then? LOL! j/k
*hugs* and congrats!
can you kick me anywhere else than in the ass. That is where most of my pain is, how about give me a good shove. One thing - don't patronize me - I need to be told like it is - just like I share with you.Pimp. :)
Just because you no longer have the title of ranger doesn't mean you don't have the knowledge of one and can't pass that knowledge on in some other capacity. Like passing it on to me and winning that argument with my kids for me lol. I knew that wasn't a turkey lol.
Roxy, what a big, sad, moving-forward step.
Since you knew you had to do it, I'm glad for you that the doing of it is done.
I also know it's still a path of adjusting to the letting go, reconciling yourself to the loss, giving up on old hopes and joys and finding new ones to replace them.
I'm really, truly sorry for your loss. Having that ranger job was just such a great part of your life. I'll always think of you as Ranger Roxy, though! Sort of like the retired military captain who's still Captain even after retirement.
You did what you had to do for yourself, and it took guts to do it. I applaud you and acknowledge your courage in moving ahead.
