    Default In memory

    This is a sad week. 3 days ago, one of my best friends was taken off the ventilator.

    he was 32 years old.

    Please if you have any friends that need it: call or have them call this number

    Sorry for your loss.
    My take on "the grind": https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthrea...=1#post6220972

    Ordinary humans have inhibitions that serve as a buffer against what we know is bad behavior.
    However, some people, by blaming others for their own bad behavior, develop a thought pattern that allows them to override self-control in order to achieve a selfish end.
    - My opinion on exploiters and cheaters blaming SSG for unfair punishment.

    Sorry to hear Hob, I know it can be tough especially this time of year.

    I have had two go this past week, one by assisted suicide, the other an accident.
    2 years ago I was looking after a friend of 25 years who was late stage ALS.
    It has not been a fun couple of years.

    So my heart is with you and those affected.

    Time to spend time with bubbly and fun friends.
    After a little Tolkien I am usually up for anything.

    My father took himself the same way back in October. This does get easier with time but odd things will spark a memory. Dont be afraid of memories but also if it gets tough move away from the thing that is triggering the memory. I remember my father how the vikings remembered theirs who have passed. Think of the good times and forget how it ended.

    Stay strong and reach out to friends if you need to talk to someone.

    I had no idea what that number was... I guessed, but it probably would be useful if we explicitly say it's a Suicide Hotline number.

    My condolences for your loss.

It is like going to a museum and bragging about how fast you made it through. Or bragging about how fast you finished a good steak.

    Cover does justice, but respect to the original (link provided as I could not find a clean version I was happy with for the forums). Additionally you have Joyner Lucas - I'm Sorry (again, no clean versions)

    Hob, enjoy the life for them. Remember what they forgot and keep going in your life. The hardest thing to do is reach out, something that many struggle with, but few realize. Live to love the life and remember those who helped you realize the importance of it.
