Thank God we've got each other! I can't imagine just dealing with this all on my own. :-\

Yes, I don't know how I would have coped without having been able to keep a virtual vigil with all of you.

What beautiful thoughts and words have been expressed here. Thanks, everyone. They help. I've been avoiding TV, newspaper and magazine reports. For some reason I can't explain, I don't want to see them or hear them, so I appreciate being able to come here just to hang out sometimes.
And I'm glad to see those that found their way here and are being comforted, also.
Marie

He didn't want to stand out with a posse of friends in popular places. Maybe he liked doing these things alone. He wasn't completely isolated. Someone commented how he let his food go cold while text-messaging. He was obviously talking to someone. I myself take myself out to dinner and lunches quite regularly. I don't even have an ipod or cell phone. I just have a book and I'm perfectly content. I enjoy being a 'regular' in places that know what I want to order the minute I come in the door. I can't speak for Heath of course, but some people are naturally loners and it isn't a burden at all. It's much easier to be one in a large city than a small one.

I sure can relate completely to what you are saying delalluvia. I feel sometimes that one of my big attractions to Heath was the fact that I do think he liked doing things alone which is very much like myself. I feel he was somewhat of a loner although of course I am not sure about it. I know I heard he liked to walk around the city by himself just fitting in, just being regular. And I understand what you mean that some people are naturally loners and it is no burden at all. That is me, that is the way I am and I never have had the desire to change that. I think one of the reasons I liked New York City so much is just what you say, it is much easier to be a loner in a large city than a small one. And the funny thing is that I have absolutely no problem just striking up a conversation with someone, spending a while with them, and then going back to my live while they go back to theirs. I have met so many interesting people that way. If I were with a group and were not a loner I would have never had the chance to talk or meet these people. I heard on the news that Heath loved to walk down to Washington Square and either watch, talk or play chess with the people there. They had no idea who he was and he liked that idea. I remember when I heard that I thought you know what I could see myself doing that exact same thing.
