I was chatting online with choccyterri when it hit me. I was so mad at myself! But she said something that really resonated with me, and with her permission, I'm quoting it here:
Thank you, my friend, for reminding me of that important thing. It's like Mick said to Beth at the end of the episode:Shall I tell you what honey..? I know that anniversaries are important... but I think that the fact that Moonlight is still part of everyone's lives, whether it's a song making us smile, or a sighting of an actor in something else, It still touches us every day.
And there are only some of us who knew it, and still remember how amazing it was, and can get excited about it. Like when you, and Dawn and I were talking about it at dinner the other week. It still fires us.
I think that is just as important to mark.
This isn’t about being a vampire, or a human. This is about us. And how we feel about one another, right here, right now.
This community was built as the result of a shared love of a wonderful, magical, inspiring show. But it's become so much more than that. When I was in the UK, I had the opportunity to get get together with several people I'd never have known existed if not for Moonlight. I have friends all over the world, people I truly care about, because of our "little show." How special is that?!
I am so very grateful to Moonlight--to its creators, and to the amazing actors and writers and crew and designers, all those who made it such a compelling, believable world. I'm grateful that it brought me so many beautiful experiences, so much inspiration, so much music and new knowledge. In a very real way, Moonlight woke me up to the possibilities life has to offer. And it gave me a community of people who understand exactly what I mean when I say these things. 'Cause let's face it, it sounds a little wacky from the outside.
So even though I'm a day late, I still wish you all a wonderful 10th Sonata-versary.
I feel very lucky to be one of those people who are still fired by the Moonlight magic.I want to close with something that darling Lucky said a couple of years ago, because it's gorgeously written, and because it really captures the feelings I still have for the show and for all of you, who still keep Moonlight alive in your hearts.

Moonlight lives on, and will live on, as long as we have love for Mick, and Josef, and Beth, and Coraline, and Josh, and Trevor...and everyone else associated with that world where a handsome vampire rolls through the night in an old Mercedes convertible, with a beautiful, smart girl by his side, and somewhere in a high-rise office, his best friend wheels and deals, and a full moon shines overhead.
I didn't lunch that day.
