I still have my buddy John in mine.

He passed in 2006.

I had not thought of it before, but keeping them in your address book,
either paper or electronic, seems to me to be a very nice idea.

Serves to remind you of them at random times... just as xoB's post reminded us of Brianna.

That's the problem, I'll be looking up somebody's address and see it which instantly makes me sad.

I just read the whole Tribly thread ...

Then again, I still have a voicemail on my cell from my friend/mentor who died from cancer 3-4 years ago.

Hopefully something good will come out of this for him.
Looks like he's raised $44K already in less than a day.

If someone can teach it and another can learn it, it is precisely what this place would be interested in housing.



Thanks for following up on that, Glatt.

I don't see a point any more. It's the same things over and over and it really doesn't matter what I do it's never going to get better. I dont' know any reason to keep trying, when it all comes out the same.

Put the part of your life that depresses you on automatic pilot, just cruise along knowing it won't change. Then try to add things to your life that make you smile. Those things may grow to dwarf the bad shit.

I'm genuinely sorry you feel this way.

But I think it's a temporary feeling you have. You may not see a light at the end of the tunnel, and it may take some time for you to feel differently, but I think you will feel differently. Bruce posted that story about the people who were trying to kill themselves on Golden Gate Bridge, and were thwarted. Some researchers followed up with them years later and the vast majority of them were doing much better.

Things change, and this will change too.

When I was at my worst (homeless, penniless, very sick) I thought that if I kept on moving ahead, this could not last forever. Help always comes, and usually at the last minute. I know that you don't want to hear this, Better times they are a coming. If you want to talk PM me, I'm always here.
