Sharing is caring

That thought just struck me when i was talking to someone...
Yes, I realize there are many in SL who don't want to know too much. They are afraid to hear about other people's sorrows and pains, because they don't want to be a part of it. I cannot condone an attitude like that, I have been around for a long time now (yes, call me old-timer if you will) and I have seen more than one rl drama unfold before my own eyes. And it makes me sad when I find that people prefer to close their eyes before other people's misery. If you are one of them, ask yourself how you would feel if you had things that you want to share with someone and then find that they don't want to hear about it...

Yes, it is painful to hear about people breaking over losing their child.
Yes, it makes my toes curl up when someone tells me that they are suicidal (and possibly manic) and have had a suicide attempt or even several, and I find it scary big-time when they blurt out that they are not willing to play death scenes, because they want death so much.
And finally yes, it is very bad when you hear that someone has cancer....and some time later find out that they have really passed away.
Fare thee well, Katara. I was not your most faithful friend I am sorry to say. But you are in my heart and I will not forget about you.
