Tonight I received an e-mail regarding my 'premium Membership'. I e-mailed back to say I was mystified as I hadn't applied for this and wondered if a mistake had been made. The reply was it was from an Anonymous Soup Member. I am totally blown away by this incredible gesture and can only thank them by this little verse. I would dearly love to know who this incredible person is  so I can thank them in person.

I’ve been made a ‘Premium Member', but I haven’t paid a fee It’s a very generous gesture, I am sure you will agree I have no idea who has paid for this – I wouldn’t know where to start Thank you for this incredible gift, from the bottom of my heart Jan Allison 8th March 2014 Written with tears in my eyes, but a massive grin on my face! ~ Please read about this poem ~

The sad thing is after some trouble on the site the lady left - it was only after she had gone did i discover the name of my mystery benefactor - she was called F J Thomas - how I wish she could see how her gift has been used and how i am flying high as a butterfly having emerged from a chrysalis:-) hugs Jan xx

Yes it was a lovely lady called F J Thomas - I only discovered this after she left the site around April when there was a lot of disquiet and unrest here. I would dearly love for her to see how I have flourished not in my writing but also in the self confidence I now have and how it has changed my life forever. I am sure she would be really proud that her gift has had such a massive impact on my life. Hugs Jan xxx
