Keep fighting for every precious moment. Find peace and joy with the time you have. Enjoy spring as the weather warms and the world around us explodes with beautiful color. Enjoy the company of old and new friends. Have those conversations, those moments of laughter. Fight for every damn moment, they belong to you.

90. Breaking my hiatus briefly for you, eyes welling with tears.
|
Because I loved what you did post, and felt good about what you posted on especially here in our home in the BOG. This comes as a shock to me as I didn't know why your posts were so infrequent.
But I enjoyed them for years. With love, I send you my very best, and know you will be missed by those of us who read your words here. I hope you are surrounded by your friends and or family at this time, and focus on the love and respect you deserved. Good bye, dear friend, I always was fond of you and asked if anyone had heard from you. Post if you can in the coming days or not, know that you have nothing to apologize for a well-lived life. That's all we will get for our days on Earth. And I'll be voting Democrat for you if you can't in November. Godspeed to the next realm, whatever it is. 
Now, I'm gone again. |

93. Damn, great white snark..
I remember when you wrote you wouldn't be around as much because you weren't feeling that well.. I thought of that every time I'd see you post or Rec one of our threads. Thinking maybe you were better.. I wish I would have written you and asked how you were. I'm so sad right now.. tears are just flowing.. it's such a beautiful farewell note you've written to all of us.
We're all special around here.. I would light up every time I saw your name and when you posted I would look forward to what you had to say.. what pearl and/or snark would be there. You're an excellent writer. Thank you so much for being our DU friend and fellow President Obama and Hillary Supporter... I think we all treasure each other for the kindred spirit we feel, supporting such amazing leaders on a Democratic board, when we're in the minority. Paul, I love your spirit and wish you and your loved ones Peace, Love, and Aloha~ 
for your service to our country and to your family members who waved the flag for the United Steel Workers! Working our best to get Hillary elected now and she's doing her best to help with those important state/local elections you talked about.. 
http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1107&pid=78361 Thank you so much for your sweet message of "Please take care of each other".
Aloha, Paul~

won't recover from very quickly. You've been one of my most favored DU'ers, and I will try and take strength from the courage you've displayed here. That's all I can say on the subject right now. Much love and respect to you. Please know that you're in my thoughts, and in my heart.

CHORUS: Time, ferry me down the river, friends carry me safely over Life, tend me on my journey, love call me home. When the waters are deep, friends carry me over When I cry in my sleep love call me home. (chorus) When the waters are cold, friends carry me over When I'm losing my hold, love call me home. (chorus) When I'm weary and cannot swim friends carry me over Open your arms and take me in, love call me home. (chorus) Take the gift I bring, friends carry me over Deep within me life is singing, love call me home. (chorus) Life offers a chance for friends to carry us over Time can stop or dance forever, love call me home. (chorus)

I was in the Air Force, and despite the usually good-natured inter-service rivalry and ribbing I always respected everyone who served honourably - Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, Active, Guard, Reserve and Auxiliary.
Not to mention that my uncle was a combat veteran Marine of the Korean War.   |

147. i have learned that one of the kindest things to say to someone who is departing this world is this:
|
it's okay to let go.
and it is. unfortunately i did not offer those words to my dad. i was younger then, not very familiar with death and loss, and i could only think of what life would be like without him when it would have been more kind, more wonderful, more selfless if i would have considered him and what he was struggling with rather then telling him to hang on and keep fighting. twenty years later i was able to tell my mom that it was okay to let go. but i understood, at that point, she had no choice; she couldn't hang on, she was too weak to fight, and there was nothing anyone could do to save her. and although she did pass on--she has given me *plenty* of signs & notice that she is still near me. (which is always greatly appreciated btw) before you go know 1. that you are loved, 2. that you will be missed, 3. that you will be remembered, 4. and the world is better for having you in it. you don't have to fight anymore. it's okay. i believe everything is going to be okay for you. you're going to be fine--perhaps more than you can imagine. sending you love. |
