Ditto, for Ladydoc's reply.
I don't believe there is a single person living in TV who did not experience similar thoughts as yours when arriving at their new home here. Most of us have moved from long established homes with all the accompanying little traditions and a certain order to things. While moving to Shangrila is an exciting and very brave thing to do, I imagine we all go through the "grieving process" - its very normal to grieve for our "past lives" and traditions, but look forward to your new life in this very supportive community. The blessings outweigh the sadness and panic. Finally, "welcome" - you made the right choice and you will recognize it when the dust settles. Kind regards. Sandra
