[ulysses]

Please?

1. I've started dying less quickly...

...will that help?

[LeighAnn]

2. I'll Quit if You Will

Inspire me, encourage me.

[zanne]

3. I hate it when people leave.

No matter where they go, I wish they were here.

[Heidi]

4. Okie doke!

Actually, to sort of rip off a Bob Dylan lyric, I'm too busy being born to be busy dying. Also, I took the "Death Test" that's going around the internet(s) and was asssured I'll live to 83.

5. we need the good ones here with us.

6. I'm not dead yet!

Doin' the best I can! Get of my back, man!

13. I saw your post earlier . . .

and lighted a candle for you when I saw it. This world is jam-packed with survivors, Andy. Hope you receive some of the light that your DU friends are sending you. :hi:

[Liberal_Andy]

14. hey, Heidi!

the support here is incredible!

[Heidi]

16. It's true, though, Andy.

You're surrounded by kindred spirits, ya know.

[ulysses]

15. indeed it is.

This world is jam-packed with survivors, Andy.

Yes. Long may there be more of us.

7. Leaves a hole in the heart, doesn't it?

8. We've had a run here lately,

haven't we?

I usually love spring but this one has been pretty depressing so far. I've had a couple painful deaths in my personal life to deal with lately. And here on DU, even more.

All we can do is trudge on. This too shall pass (I hope).

9. Do not stand at my grave and weep.......

I am not there, I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on the snow,
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush,
Of quiet birds in circled flight;
I am the soft stars that shine at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die.

12. And when I die, and when I'm gone....

They'll be one child born
And a world to carry on.

Too many good ones dying before their time.
