6. how very kind of you
Some one gave me a star a few months ago when I could not afford one. It meant that I could post in groups again when I was not able to. It gave me so much more freedom in the site! You reminded me that it is time for me to 'pay it forward' especially now that it is fund drive time :)

12. I gave you one. You'll be able to go wherever you want on DU...
when you are able to access the Internet. I'm sorry that you might lose your access. :(

16. It's not much, but I am a firm believer in the "one little candle" concept.
I also believe in random acts of kindness and paying it forward.

25. Yes, thanks for your generosity.
I can't afford a star, but I can live without one. If you like, and if I'm not being too presumptuous by suggesting it, you can always make a donation to a poverty-related cause in lieu of what my star would have cost. Supporting DU is great, but I personally would like that even more than I would like a star.

At any rate, you have kudos and my respect for your willingness to help others who are financially less fortunate.

26. Hi, Naturyl! You currently have a star. I want to confirm with you...
that someone else hasn't just renewed it for you in between the time that you posted this and I saw it. (Or is your star getting ready to expire?)

If your star's getting ready to expire, I certainly want to renew it for you. I promise that I will also donate to a food bank, so you don't have to feel guilty for receiving it. You deserve to be able to access all parts of DU. :hug:

Please let me know if your star is getting ready to expire.

27. A generous DU'er just took care of it yesterday.
Thanks for your interest and generosity, and I'm glad to hear that a food bank will benefit as well.

The DU'er who paid for my star also pledged a donation to a very worthy cause, which is great, too.

Kudos all around. :)

30. That's so kind of you! And thank you for posting it here!
There are poor folk who check in here, so your attention is very much appreciated!

I was without a star for a couple of months.... didn't realize my last donated star had worn out. But, I"m up to date, now, so I really appreciate you helping others!

AND, donating to a food bank, too!

Now all we need for you to do is to write some letters to get Obama to make sure we get more low-income housing! I don't think we can donate the housing.... ^_^

Thanks! :pals:
