Dear Friends,

We have been going through some bad days. Some of us are hurting more than they feel they can cope. We have lost Kira, we have people on the edge.

What can we do?

Sometimes reading the pain of others triggers our own.  Sometimes it seems sensible to follow the bad place that our friends are in.

It isn't.

I'm going to reflect. Why do I stay. Why does Sue drive herself into the ground to keep this place going? Why does Wynternight fight her debilitating illness to keep News going. Why do some of my GMs suffer their disabilities, smile post and then help their 
neighbours.

Why?

Because we are human, we have the human condition of all being different and having to face every hour as me.
Why does that matter when you are.facing the wall?

It does. It means we all of share the horror. The drugs. The booze. The abuse. The hatred. The not passing. The Rapes. The tears.

Ah, believe it or not that is my CV. It is the CV of many of us.

So what do we do?

This may sound daft. In despair, celebrate. With tears dripping down your face, smile. When you think you are at the bottom of the pit, you are not. There is a long way to go. I know.

We have had sad posts, despairing posts. We can look at them two ways. Join in the despair or reach out and not post in despair, but post in celebration of what you have done.

Love you all

Never forget that

Let's calm down people.

We are having a bad time but there is no reason to fall into despair

This is the first I've heard of us losing one of our family, I'm deeply saddened by this.
