My heart is breaking because I feel we, at PC, are losing so many wise ones, and it seems it is those who are the most compassionate.

My pride may be hurt at times, at some of the replies I receive in response to my own postings, but the sting of losing those who are truly caring runs so much deeper.

It feels like I am losing a piece of my soul...

i understand your feelings. it happens. i see people leave that give so much to PC and it breaks my heart. it's scary. i see new people come here who have a lot to offer and they leave. i think it may be time for some soul searching.......love, pat

I think there is sometimes a natural "honeymoon" preriod when a person joins a site/forum. That subsides as one finds their 'niche' and gets comfy here.

I personally have felt recently that I have offended or posted odd thoughts or something, as I have been feeling lonely here. Don't know. Stay or go? Don't know that either. But here I am for now.

We are all dealing with stuff and I think sometimes we can be here easier than other times and breaks are needed. Hard to accept when that happens. Loss is painful. Missing is painful.

I hope you feel better soon!

you haven't offended me!!!!

Pat I am so glad to hear that! You are one I cherish here.

Thank you for taking the time to post that. It is a perfect example of your kindness!

Best wishes to you tomorrow!
