You know, I've been a member of this forum for longer than most people think but have only really started getting to know people and posting on a daily basis during the last year. I've been apart of internet forums before but I can honestly say that this one is my most cherished and also the one whose members I care most about. Usually if I would see a thread like this there would be a minimal change in my mood because realistically I have no ties to the person involved.
But you Lee (This is the first time I'm using your name. I hope you don't mind) are not just a random person on the internet. While we may not respond directly to each other on a daily basis or know a lot of personal information about each other, I still read your posts every time I see them because I've pegged you as a person of interest on this board. I feel like even though your posts are for everyone to read, that it's still just me reading what you have to say. In a strange way I think that can also be a personal connection that people can have albeit on a message board accessed by a computer which is nestled in a house that is miles away from each other.
I'm not a religious person at all. I'm not an atheist but rather a natural skeptic which I guess can be attributed to being an agnostic. Yet I truly hope your loved one is somewhere special. I hope she is at peace. I hope you and your family are well and that you look upon this day as one of remembrance and love rather than a day of sadness and grief.
Please be well. You and your family are in my thoughts.
