[calimary]

16. Hey William769!

Absolutely. Thank you for being so compassionate and loving. Those of us who believe that we are our brother's keeper - well, you do us proud.

I hope your friend (and ours, too, since you indicated he or she is also a DUer) finds comfort, peace, strength, and moral support. AND whatever external help might be needed.

Remember what Skittles said: "someone's always here." And what calimary said - "lots of pairs of big broad strong shoulders here to buoy you up."

[William769]

17. That is so awesome. Thanks!

Yes it is a DU member in good standing I just did not want to give the name unless they decide themselves to do it but I can always count on fellow DU members to lift each others spirit in a time of need.

[calimary]

18. You bet your sweet bippy, William769.

We have SO MANY resources here for the good. For the good of all America, our party, our candidates, our ideas, and let's not forget - for us OURSELVES. DU will buoy you up. Hey, if NOTHING else, I will always cherish DU for how the camaraderie and fellowship and support and sharing of knowledge that I gained throughout those dismal bush/cheney years.

If that's all DU ever did to help me and keep me sane, that's enough. Granted DU has done a lot more for me that's good and supportive and encouraging and consoling and even heartwarming. But mainly, DU kept me company and made me feel as though I WASN'T alone. That the onslaught of pro bush/cheney media (never mind Pox Noise from which we expect the shit to spew and the willful neglect and refusal to watchdog that we can bank on getting from them and their agenda-driven propaganda pushing, but even supposedly those we thought we could count on) did NOT reflect the whole truth. It was DU that kept me sane, and kept me company, and walked side-by-side with me through all that madness, reassuring me that I wasn't crazy and I certainly wasn't alone.

And I will NEVER forget that. And if I can ever even try to begin to pay that forward by being there to keep YOU company and give you and our unnamed sister or brother moral support and encouragement, then that's what I'm gonna do.

25. To those who find themselves occasionally in a dark place.

You do not need to solve it quickly. Take your time and solve it completely.

I spent many years in the dark. I've moved into the twilight area now. I can see well here and the bright light hurt my eyes anyway.
You can/will find a comfortable place.

[Dont call me Shirley]

26. Sweet DUer, there is great healing in dark places. The dark places are wombs for soul growth.

If you are in the dark night of the soul, take peace in knowing when you come through you will be a much wiser, more whole being.

Stay focused on being in this moment, now. Honor your life here now. Honor this difficult lesson you are learning.

Peace, Love, Health
