Where Meant To Be Climbed
"Any change, even a change for the better, is always accompanied by drawbacks and discomforts" - Arnold Bennett
Change is inevitable. Change is what allows us to grow and temper our personalities, skills, and our quality of living. It's what molds and shapes us into who we are and what we could be. Change will continue to expand, grow, mature, and evolve. So take a deep breath.
I promise you'll be ok. Just..

That is what I've been telling myself for a few months now. Trying to alleviate the discomfort of the inevitable. Today is where the chapter of my life volunteering with DeviantArt comes to a close. Wow, what an amazing fulfilling ride! Words truly cannot do justice as to how I am currently feeling. I've been on the team for a healthy amount of time and I've learned and evolved in so many ways. I've gained so much and I've forged some beautiful, long lasting friendships. The CR team has been with me through some amazing times and through some really hard times in my life to which I will never forget.
I am humbled beyond words for being allowed the opportunity to volunteer. To represent the Anthro community to which I hope I did justice! Thank you to the entire team for everything. Your love and support means so much to me, you have no idea! I would like to send a very heartfelt, humbled thank you to moonbeam13 for seeing my potential and bringing me onto the team and introducing me to the wide world of volunteering; then later honoring me with the privilege of being a mentor. It's an experience like no other and one that will always stick with me through and throughout. It is life changing. So thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the memories shared both good and bad, the support and the laughs. You truly are wonder woman! #DanieIstheRealWonderWoman #ItsBeenSaidBefore #SorryNotSorryAboutHashTagging
Volunteering is an experience of great reward. Not only for myself but for the community. I will feel empty that I am no longer apart of it in that sense, but I will always be a part of DeviantArt and that is worth going through the entire experience. So thank you to my fellow CV's for everything. You all know who you are! Keep doing what you're doing. You are all stars ☆!
Thank you Deviants for allowing me to feature your beautiful art work throughout the years! It's been a pleasure and an honor! From the first Deviation I featured to the last

What Happens Now
I AM NOT GOING ANYWHERE!
I'll still continue to be active in the community, you can count on that! This place has allowed me to develop, grow and become the artist I am today and strive to be. I owe so much to each an everyone of you who's supported me throughout. Thank you.
I will however be taking a small break. The Holidays are upon us and I will be making the trek to Oregon to be with family for 2 weeks! I also need to step back and let all the experiences and emotions settle. Things need to sink in as I switch gears to being a member again so I can focus and be available for each and every one of you and be active so you probably won't see me until next year ( Jan 4th )! I hope you all have an amazing Christmas and New Year and I will see you very soon
NO MORE DD SUGGESTIONS PLEASE
Your New Anthro CV Is PixlPhantasy!
Please make sure you send all your Anthro suggestions to PixlPhantasy! I will no longer be responding to DD Suggestions that are sent to me ( I will do my best to forward them along, but I can't guarantee I'll have the time to do so! ). 
Also please stop mentioning me in forum close threads : ) I won't be responding to those either. If you are still not sure or are confused, please check out the list of volunteers to see whom you might need to send your suggestion(s) or forum close threads to. When sending forum close threads being polite goes a long way. No matter how emotionally charged you are on the thread or the OP, don't take it out on the hardworking human beings behind the screen trying to help you. Kthnx. #ObligatoryMessage
CONTINUE TO INSPIRE ART!
Remember why you are here. Remember what the purpose of DeviantArt is. To live and breath art. So lets continue creating something beautiful to share with everyone else! I can't wait to show you all the things I've been working on. I have a backlog of artwork to share and I'm excited. Super excited!
So I tip my hat and say adue to my ❤ ( The FEELS !) and leave you with some inspiration!
Live
you rock ! Keep it up !
