OK, so who else is thinking of leaving then?
nakymaton:
Hey, Chris, I'm glad you are here again, and I hope that you are escaping from your emotional black hole.
I came close to leaving, too, because I thought I was done with BBM. But I wasn't. So I'm back.

Weight Training
This is a giant block of whatever is most difficult for you to carry & trust me on this, you'll carry it more times than you can count until you decide that's exactly what you want to do most & then it won't weigh a thing anymore.

Everything's changing now for so many of us, and that's really as it should be. But my fondness for the sweet intensity of just a short while ago lingers....
JennyC:
I am still here, hopefully for a very long time.
My husband asked me how come my BBM fever still has not died after 7 months. The truth is BBM will always be part of me, but I don't need to discuss or analyze it everyday now. What keeps me here is this group of wonderful, caring people that I get to know here. Maybe I am never a die hard fan of BBM as some here, but I am a die hard fan of this group. You guys keep me coming back everyday, regardless if I feel high or low that day.
For the friends that we thought left us, may be this place isn’t right for them at times for whatever reasons, but I know they didn’t stop caring. I saw some candle lit for Chris by some old friends, some with no name on it, but behind every candle, there is a caring soul that never really left us. Give them some time to work out their issues, they may be back, may be not. But the time we spent here, the joy they gave us, the heart they shared with us will never be lost.
To Friendship…

Well said Chris.....my sentiments exactly, and glad you are back here.....i am an newie compared to a lot here, but I think this board is fabulous.
And if anyone needs any reminder of just what kind of people are here....go have a look at the thread which has been following the surgery and then the devasting illness that has befallen our moderator Chris....(now called...Chris is Awake)......
If anything shows the kind of people on this board, then reading thru that thread, certifies the feelings, emotions, caring and compassion of the people who are here, and I for one am very very proud, that I can call myself a member of such a society.
We all came here because of our love and emotions of a wonderful movie, and of course we still want to discuss Ennis and Jack, but it has gone way beyond that, way way beyond that, and we are now a "family", like sisters and brothers.
You know, I have often wondered what came first "the kind of people we are now" or the "movie".......and I have come to the conclusion that we were always "the kind of people we are now", we have all probably had that caring, compassionate nature in our life forever.......the movie, and this board, just gave us a way of expressing it to more people, gave us comfort in opening up our hearts and thoughts and gave us the opportunity to meet so many others who felt the same way as we do.
If you havent read the posts on the "Chris is AWAKE" thread, go now, and read them....it not only follows the apalling illness that Chris is enduring, but you will see, like I have, what a wonderful fellowship of people we have here.
If ever the aussie term, "fair dinkum mates", ever applied, it sure does here....
