Just wanted to say, Thank you guys. « on: Today at 12:07:29 AM » Author: lightbulbhpscfl
Thanks to each and every person on this site, from the Webmaster and admins to the commenters and posters. Thank you guys for making me feel like a person with a passion and not a problem or an "unhealthy obsession".

I loved lighting far before I found this site, before I had ever opened a browser tab, before I could even talk (and back when I thought LEDs were the best lighting type, but we were all stupid as little kids). But I've always felt really alone in my passion, like nobody else in the world could ever like lights like I do. A large part of this probably comes form my parents. They would always say "you have to many lights" or "it's an unhealthy obsession" and they blamed my poor social life on my lighting passion (Spoiler: it's not >:(). Lighting-Gallery has really helped me feel like part of a community, like somewhere I can finally relate to people. It's proven to me that there's nothing wrong with me. Now I'm a freshman in highschool, my social life has improved and my light collection is still growing!

So thank you guys, and never let this site shut down. :bulbman:

I was (and am) bullied for liking street lights. I have been obsessed since I was like 1 or something! I’m usually shy, and do not have a good social life. But I do not believe it has anything to do with liking street lights.

I think this site is really fun! There are many brilliant characters!

But for now @lightbulbhpscfl stay strong, do not let people criticise your passion!
