Adam (blueyedace2)….Julie…
Two people gone way too soon.
Two people who touched our lives and brought a sense of community to us, when sometimes we forget what we are.
I know only too well what this community at its best can offer. Sure we can form into factions… I’ve seen many of them. The Obama Sux vs Obama Rox… the HRC vs Sanders groups… the I’s vs the Ps.. you name it.
But when push comes to shove we unite.
Why?
Because we are family.
It is a shame when it takes the death of others to bring us together.
I know from meeting Julie, if I can share a story… I met her at NN in Minnesota. I am somewhat quiet in person. She befriended me and made sure I was introduced to everyone. She brought me out of my shell and sat me down and made sure I had a good time, myself be damned. :)
I owe her a lot for that… she was a special person.
Ace was the same way. He was very accepting online… I never got to meet him in person, but online he was accepting. He and I used to chat a lot. He did not care if I was Bisexual, more conservative than others on here, sick or whatever. All he cared about was that I was a good person and he was a good person. And that is what counts.
We all are good folk.
That is what matters… it is times like this we need to come together.
