mum,

Wouldn't it be fun to have4 a 'foard meeting' at least once a year.  A day or week set aside that everyone knows about and remembers to post a little update?  Uhmmmmm....yes, I think I like that idea.

I miss all these familiar people too!

I think about Bloopsy a lot... :cry:

I so hope she's okay.

I keep in touch with Gail on a regular basis and she is doing fine.  She still has some issues with her ex, but a wonderful b/f and the kids are doing well.

I wonder about October, 2 cents, bunny, longtire and so many others.

Hi Mum, it’s been good to see you!

I wonder too and I wonder why I do.
I wonder why I’m still here and I wonder about those that aren’t. Change is the constant I guess.

If I feel the urge to PM or email someone who isn’t here, I question that urge. Obviously I want something out of it – what is it that I want? To feel connected, to feel part of something larger?

I guess the folks who aren’t here choose not to be. I respect their choices and am glad they’re not here if they’re away living full and loving lives. On the other hand, we all have a short time on the planet and in 100 years, I’m sure nobody will ask ‘where’s Portia’? What if those I’m wondering about aren’t (literally) around any more? I still have the memory of them, so long as I’m around.

Sorry if this is somewhat serious. I’ve wondered about this subject often! Thanks for raising it Mum.

Hey, there’s the Friends Reunited website http://www.friendsreunited.co.uk , where old school/work friends can meet up? They’ve got some tagline to hook users in that goes “It’s fascinating being nosy and reading how people’s lives turned out! Plus, if you want to get in touch..”….. and I think hmmmmm treat with care and question why you want to know!

I think some poeple did intentionally leave because they felt they had moved on. I'm sure they'd come back if they needed support again.

Hey, Portia. I think there are times during a given day, when, for reasons not exactly clear to me....a memory is jogged, like it was the other day regarding d's mom. Her plight was particularly close to my heart, so I thought...maybe she is still around this board, maybe not. No attachment to the outcome of such a wonder....just throwing it out there to the cosmos.
And I think we agree that most people move on or don't or whatever.
I'm pretty random...so delving deep into something that's kinda off the top of my head "hey whatever happened to....hope she's ok" kind of thing isn't worth it to me.
I think it's cool that you think deeply about stuff, I really do. (and I am glad to see you here now)....

((((((((((((Mum))))))))))))))

I talk and try and give a perspective but you know? I'm talking to myself, I'm human, I try these mental ideas out, but human for sure. I think about: CG all the time, Bunny a lot, October, Marta, Phoenix and a name that's just peeping out of the filing cabinet but i can't...Michelle! Yes.....many many more and yes more recent people too but more recent people, I think maybe you're reading and will come back if and when you want to? Of course I don't know that some of the 'oldies' haven't come back! (If you have, I'm glad.)

Thanks for your reply Mum, I like it when you're here. :D

Remember how there was a lot of infighting a couple months ago....................people were debating back and forth - some fighting?  Well, when I first started posting in 2004 a huge fight broke out.  I think people were voting for people to go, etc.  I'll bet some of those people left during that big fight.  Also, I backed off for over a year because everything was going pretty smoothly and I didn't need the help that I get on this board!!  So let's not fight!  And continue to help each other through some of these hard things!
