[split] The Newly Departed thread: announcements (departures)

[Mystical]

Fair enough. I got the "speed lesson" with him and this forum, his thread and baby bashing being my first post and really my first time in a forum where what i said mattered to me (and my second forum ever). Soooo yeah actually a month and even a year later i would cringe to read our conversation. But, now that I've become a wall flower to him, just another atheist to sift through, I can safely tell you that down the line, you may feel how I do. Personally, I want to go back and see how much (or little) hell I gave him, but thats just.. I have too much other stuff to do yeah.

Since Hammie is on vacation I just want to say that for all the good we do around here, sometimes when we are treating the forum as an extension of our daily lives with interactions that truly do feel like friendship to me--we all have our bad days. Our life status floods onto here some times and we may not mean for it to, but it does. I personally think that its these times when we are 'down' and are able to stand back up, sometimes with the hand of a friend, amongst the crowd we call AF.. That's what makes us more than acquiantences. When to live is to fight, and you have people who fight side by side you in whatever situation you may be in--or even if they just witness your trebulations (ha! Stole that off a Christian forum I did!).. We all connect more deeply than just acquiantences. That's why Nymphadora got so mad, why Hammie cares so much about what we think, why I am here instead of rightfully sleeping, and why we can honestly call ourselves here at AF, a community. Lifecaint perfect. None of us are. That's all.
