KEEPING YOUR PERSPECTIVE>>>>

In the face of the real tragedy on this site, which has touched us all I have recovered my sense of 'perspective' over the last few days.

In the last few weeks (months) , I have seen many good people leave the boards, due to the atmosphere and 'undercurrents'. I don't know how many of them will return to the boards and that makes me very sad ,as they have all made the boards a better place to be in one way or another.

I have also been lucky enough to find that not only have I made some good and true friends , but also that someone who I mistrusted has had the grace to forgive me.

I had not planned to stay myself, but whoever stays or leaves this site for whatever reason,the boards MUST remain a place where people , 'old and new friends' , can find help and support, intelligent conversation and fun .For ultimately the genuine laughter of others is life-affirming ,even when you cannot laugh yourself.

If you have managed to stay reading this ,lol, thankyou!....I wrote this before I left for Chester but just got back (quite lterally) and catching up ....will be back later and WILL be staying (sorry to anyone who hoped I'd gone for good lol!)

LOVE to you allXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Hi Rose,
I am really pleased you have decided to stay, and so you should.
the only problem I can see is that you probably wont get much intelligent conversation from me.
good to see you.
