After recently being overwhelmed with thoughts and feelings I needed to get off of my chest, I was glad to have someplace to vent, and after years away from the community here, this became the place I chose to do so. I didn't really expect anyone here to hear or care, but the act of sharing with the void itself was catharsis enough.
However, waxing over my emotions and sadness only gets me so far, and part of positive change is finding positive things to focus in on, so that's what I'm going to do. All my old friends here are gone, only a handful of familiar faces remain, and I'm not going to make new friends if all I post is frustration and sadness. And that is something I'd like to do, to reengage the community, and make new online friends. I don't want to type to the void, but rather, laugh and joke with actual people.
At one time, the community here helped me through a lot, and I was a better person for the interactions I made here, both online, and in the real world. I'll be wiping away some of my oh-so-sad posts soon enough, at least the ones nobody has engaged me in to any degree, and will soon be inundating this page with snark. To a new future here I hope.
