Bittersweet return


One never knows what tomorrow will bring, as it is never a guaruntee.
Time passes by too quickly and sometimes we don't notice how much time has passed till we revisit old haunts.
I came to the blogs shortly after joining this site and not regreted it.
I have gotten to know some wonderful people and made some treasured friends.
Real life has a habit of taking us away from things we enjoy and at times it is easily dealt with. But other times it kicks the snot out of us, leaving us in a place we rather not be but cannot find a way back out.
I have found my way back to myself so to speak and in doing so feel the need to write again..to rid my mind of the shit that has been building up inside. It helped greatly writing before, it was necessary for me and I am grateful for the release it gave me and the many souls that extended a hand in my direction in friendship.
I have been told at times my writing can be a tad dark for some tastes, and I totally understand. I won't apologize for it because it is needed to rid myself of it. My other writing comes along when it does and is more favorable to many, but if the muse is slumbering it cannot be rushed.
I was wandering through the blogs checking on my friends and noticed many have taken a break for awhile as well. Some have gone completely from site no trace of them. This saddens me, as they will be missed. A few have their blogs set for friends only and not realized that I was not a friend to them but a fellow blogger and so I am unable to post a comment on their blog but can only visit the blog.

I came across a post that I stared at for a long time in disbelief.
I am still in shock but know it is true and am deeply saddened by it.
As the saying goes people cross our paths for a reason, a season, and a time.
I will be damned if I know why things happen to good people and yet I know it is inevitable for all of us but I don't like it and never will.
It has taken too damn many of my loved ones and friends and each one takes a chunk out of my being and it hurts...hurts so much.
Yes it can be accepted but to say accepted in a good way? No not in the least.
I am speaking of a friendhere that I only just found out passed away in February. It pains me to not to have known sooner My own fault I suppose for not scouring through this site sooner or being here more regularly.
I will never forget this friend, for he was more on few stories and we were going to continue and possibly publish one day. He was looking into it last we voice chatted. He was a hard worker as he tended not to be able to chat online or write much given that work was keeping him busy.
He was encouraging me to keep writing and believed in me. As I was encouraging his wonderful writing as well. When I am able to publish and or continue the story we started ..he will be given more than a mention in helping to bring it to light. He will be sadly missed by me and others who had the honor of knowing him.
RIP my dear BronzeHalo..you will never be forgotten.

At the end of last year I lost another very good friend. He was not from this site but another. We actually met in person and became good friends. He had a heart of gold and defined what being a friend was. He gave to m e something that helped change me and brought me back to land of the living again. I am forever grateful to him for that.

A day does not go by without me thinking of the people that have touched my life, in ways that they probably do not realize they have done. I make a point to tell people how I feel about them, as I know all too well that life is unpredictable and way too short.

Not meant this opening blog post to be a downer but it is life and it happens to us all and it is something that I need to talk about..if only for myself and the few followers left here that may read this.

To the ones who I have made friends with here..know this..If I consider you a friend you have touched me deeply and I do care about you alot. I send my love and hugs to you and hope you are well.

I will be writing again soon..take care of yourself and be safe *hugs*

Shy...I had no idea that you didn't know about Bronze passing away. If I had known you didn't know I would have told you. I found out just a few days after it had happen, his fiancée told me and asked for me not to tell anyone at the time. The two of them had broken up and had just gotten back together, and when she told me she had something to tell me, my first thought was that they had finally gotten married. It was a total shock when she told me that he had died.
At least I was fortunate enough to have met him in person, in fact I saw him twice. Bronze was a brilliant writer, a wonderful man, and good friend. I still find it hard to believe that he's gone. I agree he will never be forgotten!

No I had no way of knowing Pixie. I only found out when I returned here recently. I am still in shock and wished that I would have been able to meet him. Thank you for posting it, I will make my peace with it someday. Take care Pixie *hugs*
