I will die or have a nervous breakdown

Niki....you need to take a break...go for a walk, ride a bicycle...do something to get some of these stress chemicals out of your body. Seriously, sweetie...

Well, I got to weeping in my car yesterday listening to this song, and thinking of two losses I've had, that are not mine to have really but are there just the same: that of my manager and friend of the last 10 years leaving the state yesterday for another job and another dream, and of course that of Heath's passing. The sun was just setting, and spectacularly, when the enormity of both losses in my life hit me all at once.

I close both locks below the window
I close both blinds and turn away
Sometimes solutions aren't so simple
Sometimes good bye's the only way
And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you
With cards and flowers on your window
Your friends all plead for you to stay
Sometimes beginnings aren't so simple
Sometimes good bye's the only way
And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you.

I'm sure everyone else here will agree with that. I do believe it shows that Brokeback Mountain and Heath do live on through us. At one point I was afraid this tragedy would have tragic results for BetterMost; however, you are one of those people who actually came here after the tragedy. In fact it seems we have new people coming on as well as people who disappeared from the forum that have now returned. I am glad to see both, but I do wish it were because of more pleasant news. Anyway, welcome to BetterMost!!!

Jack, thank you so much for the welcome. I can't get over how open, kind, and welcoming people here are, even in this dark time.

by Don McLean
Starry, starry night.
Paint your palette blue and grey,
Look out on a summer's day,
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul.
Shadows on the hills,
Sketch the trees and the daffodils,
Catch the breeze and the winter chills,
In colors on the snowy linen land.
Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they'll listen now.
Starry, starry night.
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze,
Swirling clouds in violet haze,
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue.
Colors changing hue, morning field of amber grain,
Weathered faces lined in pain,
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand.
Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they'll listen now.
For they could not love you,
But still your love was true.
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night,
You took your life, as lovers often do.
But I could have told you, Vincent,
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as you.
Starry, starry night.
Portraits hung in empty halls,
Frameless head on nameless walls,
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget.
Like the strangers that you've met,
The ragged men in the ragged clothes,
The silver thorn of bloody rose,
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.
Now I think I know what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they're not listening still.
Perhaps they never will...
