Hope Bob is able to bring it back eventually.

It is hard, painful, and human interaction, and life is full of pitfalls. We just goto do the best we are able to at the time.
And try not to add to others pain by lashing out in our own.
Or bringing others into our vortex of swirling confusion.
We are each responsible for ourselves.
We need to try and extend dignity and kindness to others.
We are all human, we all have failings.
Even Bob.
DEFINATELY me.
I just want there to be less pain and hurt, and more caring.
Change is good, but not if others get trampled in the process.
Some are being trampled IMO.
Some alive or dead are being dissed IMO.
And I feel sad.
Cuz don't we all just wanto feel loved accepted safe?
As much as is possible in this fallen world :(
I just sad.
Very very sad.
