You are why I am here

A Mystery

Saturday, February 2, 2013 by Stramp | Discussion: Community

 First I must apoligize for my mysterious absences as they are the result of sometimes financial problems & sometimes medical & life happens. I would to be here consistantly. But it seems things seem to come against me. I still compose even tho I can't interact, hoping to bring you a new twist or just to poke fun, as I journey to being a greater part of the community. I would be further along and it seems things would hinder me but I persist even tho the pressure would push me to quit. I have found a great group of fantastic PEOLE who realize that as we go thru the requirements of sometimes monumental strife we have those who will always reach out without a thought to explain yourself. You are my friend what do you need.  I am here but I am not. I want to be but sometimes can't. I am barely here now but something allowed me to be. I have no internet so how am I typing this now!? Seriously I have NO internet. Some how I got a connection & showed up while I was working on a theme. This is a mystery. Maybe a gift. I hope you think me not cracked. I was very sick and missed all of you & had no way of letting you all know I was still here & and had so much to share & wanted to see all you all had done as your works inspire me. The gift of what has been given me is your creativity, you all in some way have created me. And I want to show in some way you haven't wasted your time, money, patience, hopes for no reason. I remember do you back when we had dreams? It's time for those to take & bear fruit. You are all my inspiration.

Welcome back Stramp!

     We all got to deal with stuff, part and parcel of life. Look at it this way, everything happens for a reason. So yeah....treat it as a gift. I do!

Teddy yes, you are a great friend. I have no wireless, bluetooth, no cable on this computer or am connected to any such.  Not to create a stir, but here it is! Yes I have seen miracles but they were to save lives, not for self profit. Yes I am of a different belief. But love is given not expecting anything in return. Some of my work seems to contradict my words but there is a point to it all. I am not as the dark person as it seems, but quite the oppisite. Just very well read in the dark happenings. I have been blessed with life & will always give my life in return as greater love hath no man(woman) than to lay down his(her) life for their brother or sister. We all have short commings but isn't that the road to perfection. It makes it interesting to make mistakes & open our eyes to the fact we all need each other. Perfection would be boring.

And to you Vamp , we struggle as one and in the end we triumph together. You also have given me great inspiration, such a great differential point of view to be different.

John, Life goes on, sometimes for the good and sometimes not.  But we will be here when you can.

John, I am in your corner. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I love ya, we all do. 

I miss your being on Yahoo Mess and asking if I like this or that, and just plain hanging out and talking.

 

I wonder what's up when I don't see you for long periods.

 

I'm sorry life is giving you lemons, but I'm glad you're making lemonade. Good to see you, old friend.

 

Hope to see more of you.

Hey Stramp, here's hoping that times get so much better for you in he very near future... like today, even.  I hate it when good people are going through a bad time, and I hate it even more when there's nothing much I can do to help.  I'd like to be able to throw a few bucks your way to help out with getting the internet on or something, but I recently gifted a couple of others in need and I wouldn't have the spare funds for a couple of weeks.  However, if somebody else were to start a help fund, and it were still going by then, I'd be only too happy to chip in to give you a boost.

How about it people, can we get a 'Help Stramp' thingy going?

I do not know you, but I hope things get better for you. Welcome back, even if only while your miracle connection exists.

 I'm all for it but it won't be until I get a few things straightened out first, two maybe three months. Wish I could do more.
