Well would you look at that folks. 5 solid years on Infinite Flight and the community. I must say, it sure does feel nice to have been here for so long and still be active. I know on some communities I’ve been there for 8-10 years and I’m not even active at all. But here is different. I feel welcomed, respected and liked and that’s what makes me want to stay.
Coming into Infinite Flight and the community I had no idea what to expect. Especially the community. I’m not very social and even online I’m not so much either. But again, I just felt welcomed and I really appreciated that. I wasn’t made fun of for who I was and I just got to enjoy Aviation with tons of others! I never thought coming into this I would make my Grandma famous or 100+ people wishing me a well recovery for my kidneys. I usually don’t go online and tell people about my personal life but it just felt right here. Sure it’s not aviation related but I want my IFC friends to know what is happening in case I lose contact with them randomly. Speaking of IFC friends I have quite a few and I’ve made a great friendship with them. My two closest friends are @if.brazil & @jeffereystepenson (He deleted his IFC account I think). Sorry @if.brazil but I’m gonna expose your name because it feels weird calling you by your IFC. Anyways, I met Josh and Jefferey in early 2020 in a random IFC groupchat. We all became friends quite quickly and we are all still friends! We’ve all been there for everything. Glad to still be with them as they are my closest online friends :)
Other friends? Well we got @ifs.egypt @if.sights @Arlandis_Lewis @IG.IF.MALDIVES @If.Beirut and MANY more. But I don’t want to annoy the crap out of their DMS so I will keep it with my most important ones.
Ya know out of the 5 years I have been here I would have to say 2023 and 2024 are my most memorable so far. In 2023 I posted a topic called “Grandma said to post it”, not thinking it would be at the top for the month! Why did I call it that? Well I always like to show my Grandma the edited pics I do before sharing them here. She gives me a lot of confidence and makes me feel better. That day I wasn’t a fan of the pic but I still shared it and she loved it and told me to post it. Her exact words, “Oh my word Kaden! You need to post that. It is absolutely beautiful.” And so I did.
I think that is enough, I could go on and on about everything but I don’t want to make you guys have to read a Harry Potter book.
Thank you to all for everything! Goodnight
