With Sympathy

My sincerest condolences go out to Mary who lost her blog this past weekend.

Mary,

I am deeply saddened by the news of the passing of your blog. I couldn't have been more shocked when I read your post of its demise. I have not yet read the obituary, but I am sure it will soon follow and I can't wait to read it and remember all that was wonderful about your little blog. It touched many hearts, gave cause for much LOL and provided us with much needed moments of escape from the every day. It had a way with words and will be sorely missed in the blogging community. However, out of tragedy great things are born and I know that you will carry on and find your way again.

Your little glob touched and no doubt changed many lives. Including mine. I am a better person because of your blog. Have you set up a donation fund? Are you doing a benefit concert? How can we as a blogging community help?

I have never been faced with such a tragedy, but can only imagine the emotions you have been experiencing. Because as we all know, there are five stages of grieving: The denial. The anger. The bargaining. The depression. And, finally, the acceptance. According to the experts you must go through all stages or your healing will never be complete. And if it is not complete, there will be no healing.

You will heal. If you are still feeling the pain, that is a good thing. It proves you are alive, human (which many of us wondered about since you have super-human humor).

Just don't put off living- there is so much for you to still accomplish. Reach for the stars, Mary!
