Bringing Brokies together.

[Brown Eyes]

Yes, I'm always thankful for the Brokie and BetterMost communities.  I cannot imagine dealing with this tragedy without a place like this to come and find friends.

Its like losing 2 people you love. Heath and Ennis.

Heya Friend,
I completely understand where this feeling is coming from. 
 

But, for me, I think there may be another way to look at this.  Heath gave us Ennis (well, along with Proulx of course), and Ennis will always be right there in that amazing film that will be remembered as a brilliant highpoint in Heath's legacy as an actor.  And, of course, Ennis will also continue to exist as a very powerful figure in the hearts and minds of Brokies everywhere.  So, I don't think we've really lost Ennis at all.

And, Ennis will help Heath's name be recalled with a huge amount of respect and admiration in the history of very serious film for many, many generations to come.  Again, a part of Heath's incredible legacy as an actor that really can never be taken away.  It's comforting to me to think that we'll always think of Heath as young, handsome and in the absolute prime of his acting abilities in the form of Ennis.  And, Ennis, at least for me, will definitely always still be there.



Geez, I've just made myself cry.

I just had a great long phone call with Banner Hill, reminiscing, conjecturing, admiring.  A silver lining.

Someone else (I think it was Milli) posted this comforting thought for those who have the feeling we did not only lose Heath, but also Ennis:

He's with Jack now.

It's a good place to be, isn't it?

Yes, definitely.

[KristinDaBomb]

Heath, you brought us together in the first place.  It's only right that we come together now for you. 

That was so sweet.

I left work early. Couldn't get anything done anyway. I sat there listening to normal chit chat about work, survived a half hour meeting and then decided to go home.



I'm rembering all the brokie hugs I've gotten so far. I've been fortunate enough to have received a lot of them. I need them right now. I'm glad I can be here.
