You done good son, come on home


My heart has joined the thousands, for my friend stopped running today Favorite quote from Watership Down, what is said when someone passes. John, the friend I never met, founded this website that maybe saved my life, it sure as heck saved my sanity. I imagine God welcoming him with open arms and a you done good son, come on home. Thank you John, you founded a website forum where anyone seeking relief could come and recover through reading, sharing, listening and helping. I think of the shape I was in when I first joined likened to Humpty Dumpty after hed taken his fall. I know that every day new people arrive at the site and begin the same slow painful process of climbing out of the abyss. I have witnessed broken people putting themselves back together and becoming stronger in the broken places; I was one of them. Goodbye John, and Thank You!
