Some information on my life right now. :)
12 years ago
First off I want to say I have been very blessed by being able to meet each and every one of you – either in person or via just chatting online. I thank you for your friendships, your kind words and your love for others on this site and off of this site. I remember first signing up for this over a year ago and I never thought it would turn into the friendships that I have with some of you – I have indeed made some great friends here. I remember going to Morphicon and seeing God move there – defiantly an experience I am not going to forget. However, after being on and off of FA a few times and seeing where God leads it I have realized I have been fighting God.
I believe that God has worked through Christians in the fandom – and has awesome plans for it (all His plans are GREAT) – however He has made it pretty apparent to me that I am not meant to be an active member of this Community anymore. I may still be around at random events – check this from time to time – and I will DEFINITELY be keeping in contact with the people I’ve met – you guys (and gals) are no less important to me because im leaving. I still encourage people to connect me with new friends that are pro-furry and furry- however I no longer will identify myself as being a furry. I am however a disciple of Christ that enjoys some aspects of furry.
You can still call me Creda – however my real name is Shaleen and many people call me Shamama. I do prefer the latter. Although – feel free to call me whatever YOU are comfortable with.
I am saddened to leave – however God has opened my eyes to the hurt that this has become and spoken to my heart. There is no way that I regret becoming involved – the only thing I wish I could have done was press into Him more with those who I came into this with and I do believe that things would have been different – nonetheless I do know that God has a plan and knew this was going to happen – so I am sure it will be used for His glory. I have seen both the good side and the bad side of the fandom. I have both made friends and lost friends because of it. I do love it just the same – but I am not supposed to be OF it. I will still see you around though – I still love animals, think fursuits, fursonas and think they absolutely adorable and can be a lot of fun. However, I cant keep ignoring what is clear to me.
I pray that I may still see each of you around – if I don’t, I pray that your lives may be fruitful.
This is not a goodbye – just a hope to see you around – maybe under different circumstances. Maybe even at a bowling meet or two.

You did a great job with teaching me what little we had time for. I enjoyed speaking with you and will continue regardless if I refer to you as a furry or not. You, as an individual are fun, courageous, inspiring, and a great teacher. I certainly hope this won't be the last time we speak. God bless you, sis, and go spread His word!
God bless!
