I just realized you've been sending me hugs for quite awhile and i am sorry i never sent you one back.

SO, Here's a Huge hug going out to you across the world!!!

And thank you!

'sokay DG. anytime. I came here to find out where jen hangs out.

semperfortis, a budy of mine was a marine sergeant in Iraq. He lost a buddy in a roadside mine and ... well he had the grizley job of recovering body parts of his best mate.

My friend came back traumatised and withdrew from his family. They couldn't relate to his experience.

Probably the rest of us here can't with you either, as much as we feel sympathy. My friend climbed up on his roof night after night, quite depressed trying to make sense of it. He lost the will. life no longer made any sense.

I'll tell you what I told him if I may ?

I told him that his lost friend wanted to live and it would insult, or dishonour his friend's sacrifice if he gave up so easily. I pointed out how his family needed him. I asked him to go back to his wife and kids who loved him and not shut himself off from them. They needed him whole.

It must have helped because he climbed down from that roof. Nothing turns back the clock semperfortis. Our lives are like chapters in a book. Our books are written before we are born. When our time comes, it is like the closing of a chapter, but the book goes on and our stories are told in the chapters which follow by those who loved us and remember us. Remember your friend and keep your friend alive in the chapters which you write.

Your friend did not live in a graveyard. Your friend lived in your life and lives on in your memories. that is where to honour your friend.

A hug doesn't seem enough, but you can have mine *HUG*

Thanks Sy....

And you are right, and just "talking" about it on here has really helped, I thank all of you for your ears and your time....

Brad was a GREAT guy!!!!!! Hands down the gutsieist human being I have ever known....

And Gary, my friend from school, he left a HUGE family, sons daughters and grandchildren, he will most definitely live on...

I do have wonderful memories and will cherish them forever...

So the new day is here, I feel better and here is a GREAT BIG HUG FOR ALL OF YOU MY FRIENDS!!!!!!!!!

*****HUG*****

Wow.

I think we have an extremely powerful thread here. My dream last night consisted of hugs. Namely a man was hugging me. It felt so good and so real i'm overwhelmed this morning.

I am married to a Vietnam Vet Marine and he does not hug freely. He was very traumatized in the service and he was not the same person when he came back home. I really suffer a lot by his lack of affection and intimacy, but he's in his own world and i cope with things day by day.

He's a good man, a good provider, but is not the huggey type and i am.

So thank you out there, whoever it was, astral traveling to me and making my night.

I treasure such moments with friends.
